The artwork is finally done!!! Click [link] to view :D

Click [link] for WIP Part 2

Yup, I admit that this time I was a little bit slow in completing my artwork. But, that wasn't my intention! Argh, work life has once again force me to procrastinate and the last few weeks I was damn busy... so sorry for the guys out there "=.=

Anyway, as mentioned in my journal, here comes the The Making Of Lightning Realism!

At first, I was planning to post up a step by step progress on face drawing from scratch till now... but those steps were rather too long and some of the steps were missing due to sudden restart of my Photoshop! (Argh, I forgot to save those screencap). So, well, I just submit the old fashion way like this one and perhaps the next art I shall.... do that? LOL. Just hope my Photoshop doesn't go crazy...

Anyhow, this time my attempt was to draw Lightning realism in whole body (from head till leg) which I never did before in my previous artwork. And if it's successfully, I plan to do each details on her clothes to be very specific (material texture can be seen, the treads, hair etc). That would mean, the file size will be enormous! Haha, it would definitely test the limit of my new laptop! =P

And so, this will gonna take up some time... err..about 3 months? (Is it too long? .... Nah! LOL)

Nevertheless, enjoy the WIP!

[Update - 24th May 09]

I have adjusted the nose shading part to make it looked better, thanks to =Epsilon86 and ~TasukiNoAijin for pointing out that :D But I still retain her nose shape as I don't want to deviate from the original reference model. :)

The face is still not yet complete and I may require to do more touch up when towards completion or somewhere when I feel her face need to do some changes.

Material Used:
Adobe Photoshop CS3
Wacom Graphire 4

Character Design: Tetsuya Nomura © SQUARE ENIX CO. LTD

^^ Yay! First comment. This is good. ^^

I think you choose a rather hard reference pic to draw. The nose is abit weird. And it maybe better if you can draw her nose more pointy and smaller?? My own thoughts. I can't wait to see more soon!!

I'm agreed with Epsilon86. You might fix that nose a little. It will turn out perfect. Trust me. Can't wait to see when you will finish it. I promise you that I will fav it 'cause you are the best. You are lucky that you have alot of fans out there who will do anything to support you. *applauds!* ^_^

LOL, indeed the reference model was very hard to draw. And that's what I want =P. I need to challenge myself to see whether I can go up my limit or not.

I got lotsa problem not only the nose part but to put in her hair and the costume part too.

I will adjust the nose later as per your suggestion. But right now, I'm adjusting her hair till it looked right :D

hey guys !!
I'm learning realism style >A<

please take a look at my [Gallery] and give a critique :XD: :sheepish:
:icontasukinoaijin:
Nose is kinda a bit big. Can you try to fix it like the original one from Square Enix's reference. I suggest you to study SE's Reference. Look at her nose. It's a bit thick, not big. Check it out [link]

There you go! :) Hope that helps!
