Thank you so much! I spent a lot of time on the hair, and the technique that I used for her hair is something fun that I should really be using more often.

I used a combination of different things, actually! I used Copic markers primarily, but I also used some watercolour and some coloured pencil for a few of the details- Elphaba's cape and hat, for example, had a base of pure watercolour and then were built upon with marker.

JesterAG [2009-06-30 17:06:59 +0000 UTC]
This looks awesome and exactly like I imagined her while reading the book. I really like how you used a natural flesh tone for her highlights! It gives her a more natural and human element than using monochrome green for her skin.

I can't believe you work with Copics so well and so clean. Your way of drawing hair works nicely and looks very smooth. I like it!

Thank you! I swear, I'm not even HALF as good with Copics as my room mate Annie, but I really REALLY appreciate your kind words /;-; ♥ I really work hard at improving my colouring skills, and I'll certainly continue to do my best to really improve and live up to sweet compliments like these!

Karma321 In reply to blk-kitti [2009-05-14 17:48:36 +0000 UTC]
But I could never do anything like that! So even if you say your roomie is better, I still appreciate your work and effort, because it's beautiful to look at. ^__^ Yay on continuing to improve!

Thank you very much for your compliments! I was at a loss for background at first, but after examining the reference photographs of Wicked on-stage I was really struck by the beauty of all those criss-crossing spotlights and decided to challenge myself to incorporate that element.

Thank you for your kind words-! And I think that you're MUCH too hard on yourself, I looked in your gallery and I like the originality of your conceptions of Elphaba just fine-! Art is a matter of 'ractice makes perfect' in any case, and we ALL have a lot of growing to do /;-;
