Description zomg AZULA.
this took:
1 wacom tablet
3+ bottles of coffee
5 days
6+ times my dad yelled at me to sleep.
7+ references
10+ textures from google [should i cite them?]
20+ groups
110+layers

I think this is my greatest work yet
the thing in the back is the fire nation symbol. but to add a touch of azula to it, i made the flamey part lightningy.

amazing how a hideous sketch can turn into this, eh?

i started with her face. i LOVE drawing faces! >o<

this is basically how i start on clothing. make a solid color base, then i indicate folds with a darker color, and then i use burn and dodge tools. and then i add a texture i find online to make it look slightly more interesting.

Awsome pic! I noticed you put dark circles under her eyes. It looks like Azula REALLY needs to get some sleep.

This is very nice! I think my favorite part is her eyes. I love how you added the dark circles underneath!
