Description
Myre, the fox lady that has been in my mind for god knows how long. I have been drawing fox-women with pure red hair for such a long time and never believed that I will create an actual character out of my throught and subconscious scribbling.This was my first attempt to paint armor that looks used and worn.
The rusty bits, scratches and dents were the most fun part to do about it. I spent most of the time working on the plating and correcting mistakes that have been sneaked in with the sketch: [link]
Painting metal can be so much fun as you can play around with tiny details, rust, different colours and shapes yet there are restrictions about light and shadows which makes the process of painting a lot more a challenge when you're used to paint plants and leaves.
Photoshop, 3339 x 2096 on 300 dpi
Thanks a lot for looking <3

Holy, this made me sit here for a minute and just stare.
The metal armour is amazing, there are so many different colours and tones to it, not to mention the cocktail of textures. The lighting really shows it off even more.
I'm also very fond of her lovely hair. Some of it seems almost to be in twisted ropes, still while some is falling nice and straight. It does add a nice shock of colour to the image.!

Beautiful deep colors, especially the rich red hair. For some reason, with that long hair flowing down from under the helmet, she reminds me of Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth: the Golden Age, during the final battle scenes. Or the character Midna, from "Zelda: Twilight Princess" Very cool!

Weeeeee! Thanks much!
I'm absolutely happy that you like this character. Hehhe. I just found something out about this name - isn't there even a place called Myre in Norway? ^^
There really is something planned and I will put hands on it as soon as possible. ; )

Wow that's awesome. I really didn't think that a creation of a name can be an actual place. xD
Ah well, there is even a place called Batman in the end. Heheh
I will make a big annunciation when sketches and other commissions will be sent out. The sketch is still safe at my place and being packed and ready to be sent. ^^

This picture caused me to do something I only very rarely do. Take one look at it and know instantly that it's going to be a fave.

This is amazing! When I saw my thumbnail I couldn't believe how quickly you've made progress! I mean, the armor, and the rust, and how the light shines on it makes it look incredibly realistic! You put very much depth in it, which is awesome to look at.
I can't write something too constructive, just wow.

...it is how I create most art just sitting down and drawing and see how it comes out often I see patterns in things and draw that... I rarely set out to draw something I want to draw I like art to be spontaneous like that... very good though it's the type of thing the soul speaks rather then the mind.
