Description
Starbuck: So you don't think I'm nuts?Lee Adama : I didn't say that. You're a raving lunatic. As demented and deranged as the first day I met you.
As usually, a reference was a photo: [link] ยคt=starbuckphoto.jpg
I know I fraked up the hair and there's a lot of mistakes. So probably let's better call it a "speedpainting". Though it took more than 10 hours, which probably means it can't be called like that xD But I am still quite please with the effect, so.
Oh, and, probably, it's the last piece I upload before starting the new school year and ending the holidays!
From the same, let's say, "series":

no, it's 100% made by me I was looking at the original picture all the time, but that's all. I don't even know how overpainting works XD

thank you! ^^ I could've done better job on hair, though, but it's the hardest part for me

I understand completely. It's very hard to do.

Speedpaint or not, it looks rather nice. Especially the little details such as the shadows falling along not-rectangle places, or the soft-but-not-mushy colouring. The hair is a bit stiff as you said, but it's pretty awesome all the same

thanks I think the lack of background is showing off the most in here though. It would better if had something in background, though I've no idea what could it be so...

Wow, just amazing. The detailing is fantastic, you didn't frak up the hair at all IMHO, and I absolutely love her look of superiority too, just great!
Just out of curiosity, that quote, is it from the TV series? If so, what episode?

Thank you! Your comment means a lot for me, I am glad you liked the pic!

I don't even know what to say!
This is... You're so talented. ;~;!
Her hair looks really good to me though, I wouldn't say you franked up at all. I've never actually heard or used the term "franked up" so I'm kind of assuming it means to have like... messed it up, if I'm wrong and it means something else... Well then I'm wrong and sound pretty stupid right about now.
It's so sad that you have to go to school any whatnot, you're art is so (any word synonymous with epic/awesome/pure bad ass) but school's a good thing so it's not SO bad. xD

Aww, thank you so much! This comment totally made my day!
And about the "fraked" word - well, I used it on purpose, because that's the made-up curse which is used by characters in the "Battlestar Gallactica"'s universe. Basically it works exactly like "fuck", only it's "frak", and I really adore the sound of it. Also, as I am making a fanart, I though I might stay in the realms So yeah, you've got the meaning pretty well!
Well, I like my school xD It's not art school though, in case you got any ideas xD And I am extra excited, because I am starting the second faculty :3
And thank you once again for enthusiasm
