Oh it's beautiful. I was waiting for you to finish before I commented and now I don't have words. This is my favorite thing of yours. It reminds me of Ariel from The Little Mermaid. That sweet innocent look. Those eyes and her hair. Absolutely gorgeous DoOp.

Ritual

Aakyra (May 27, 2008)

The ritual of nail painting dates back to 3000 BCE ... first practiced by the Chinese as something of a status symbol. The royal dynasty wore silver and gold ... and commoners were only permitted to wear pale shades. Deviations from this custom were punishable by death.

There are enough female ballet dancers, let's let the men have their share.

His face is fugly and nothing close to the dancer in the ref. *sigh* Well I had enough of it. Maybe I'll get back to it one day..... and also fix those pants. WTF? I thought I colored them solid black?

Well it is late here..... that's an excuse.... right?

Thanks, I like doing fabric. Missed doing folds and stuff, but went all out with my previous drawing on the dress :D. So I couldn't let go of it yet.
When done with this drawing I figured it must either be a giant ducky, or a miniature towel. Making the tiles darker was actually very easy. I cloned the layer, set the top of the two to "desaturate" en played with opacity of the layer, making it more gray then blue.
For the drop shadows under the duck and towel I also clone the layer, moving the lower layer slightly right and under, setting it to overlay, set to the opacity you like. And finally blurring the edges so the shadow looks soft and more natural.
