Description drew this baby:

So I simply had to color it. She was experimenting with new shading and decided to do so on my Hitchups/older version of Camicazi. Much of the outfit design goes to her - only the wrap, fur and knives were mentioned by me, which left a lot to the imagination. Go check out the original!

Great job with the coloring, and also you got that up in such a short amount of time! And it's cool how you colored so well with all the layers in the picture. I do manual pencil art, but I saw Ch4rm's message to you about the layers and realized that coloring a layered Tablet image takes some real skill. You carried it off well, well, I think.

I think the only suggestion I would make is to put some more glints on the chain links Cami is wearing. One of the things I admired about Ch4rm's drawing is how she made those chain links seem to flash in the sunlights with a few suggested lines. Maybe you could add some glints of light on that chain coloring to capture that effect. I bet it would be cool to see what you come up with. Just a suggestion for an already awesome coloring job.

Well thank you very much, but that short amount of time has a lot to do with the simplicity of layers

What I did was use a feature called 'multiply' which basically made *ch4rms 's picture see-through. Underneath the picture I colored her, then I did some fancy, yet easy, stuff to augment the shading she already had in place! Simple simple. Though, this is part of the reason the chain links didn't look super shiny; multiply made following the highlights of her picture hard to follow...it was mostly just one half of the dark lines that showed up.

Ah, thanks for the explanation. I wondered how that would work with the layers. The colored pencils layers, too, but in a different way with the colorless blenders

I think your brain is saying something along the lines of: "Want. Bed. NOW!" with last word mixed with a hint of Green Death roar.
