Description
The idea of this image was to create a typical “witcher card”, those you can get when you have a special time with one of the girls. The woman shown on this card is Triss Merigold, one of my favorite female characters in the game.For those who wonder what it’s intending to show: I tried to catch the moment when the viewer (Geralt) draws the curtain and finds her on her bed waiting for him.
I’ve also made a version with card border but it looks bad

I can tell you one thing - She looks perfect - and I'm not talking about the gawky girl known from the game - no. I'm talking about Tris from books.
Wonderful job. She looks exactly as she should.

thanks a lot for your nice comment, glad you like the picture. I'm currently reading the first novel and Triss hasn't come up yet. I'm hoping to read about her soon!

You're welcome. I hope that you like it (the novel)? It was my first fantasy book ever.
Currently I prefer other work of Sapkowski - the Hussite trilogy - it's absolutely amazing. ^^

Yes I love it! Sapkowski isn't very popular in Germany since no one has translated his novels yet, except for the first two geralt novels. And those were translated only because of the release of the game...

It appears that the game did some good.
I hope that it will change soon and they will translate the books because they are "good" not because of the game

Thanks a lot for your comment and fav mate Can you explain what's wrong with the leg?

Jesus-Tks In reply to ErikShoemaker [2008-09-28 11:55:21 +0000 UTC]
Haha, we all say that . I'm not sure about the leg, it just doesn't seem to blend quite right where the knee is. Can't put my finger on it but it just seems... off is the only way I can put it really. If I can think of a better way of putting it I will :S

The art is great although you should know that Triss from the game and the original Triss (from Andrzej Sapkowski's book series "The wither") are two different persons. Triss from the book is more calm and more determined in the same time. And she wouldn't put on herself something like that - she got burn during the battle. After the war she could not wore anything ending lower than her neck.
But still art is great
I recommend You reading the books. Game is good but books are just wonderful.

thanks a lot for your comment! The image is related to the game of course I didn't know the game-Triss is so different from the books. I just started reading the first novel and Triss hasn't come up yet.
Once again, thanks for your hint and I'm glad you like it.
