Description
Night Elf. From a little Warcraft III Inspiration. One thing I learned from doing this piece. I am MUCH better as an inker in Traditional media. Inking witha tablet can get VERY nervewracking. I still had a ton of fun with this one.Unsure of what category to put this.. women, games, fantasy?... Fantasy it is I guess.
Painter 8 and Photoshop 7

Wow, this piece is really beautiful. Her shoulders seem maybe a tad wide to me, not broad, but wide, like they were a bit stretched out, but it's a very well done piece of art all the same.

i know its been said several time before but the left shoulder looks a bit too far out and a bit big. i like the purple in it its such a nice colour scheme and the hair looks amazing however the braid looks a little unfinished though only cause its not at the same level of quality as the rest of her hair. and she has such a dynamic pose
and the bestest thing that background is amazing it looks so nice it could be worth its own submission.

great crits, all. I get lazy when I get close to the end of anything.. I lamost need to take a day break right at the end and THEN come back and finish. Sometimes I think It'll come together better that way. After all, whats the rush, ne?

She is simply bueatiful! I clicked on the thumbnail...thinking "hey..that looks like a night elf. OH! IT IS!"
I love the way you captured the movement of her hair and body wonderfully.
My one crit is her left shoulder seems a little out of place... other than that.... dude your coloring/painting style is incridable.
Gotta love that Night Elft weaponery

Great image Flatliner, even if the left shouler is off balance. One thing though, wtf is the definition of a glaive? I seen that name for spears, halbreds, and throwing weapons. Is that a name people used when they can't of a name for a weapon.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nah.. heres a dictionary definition
glaive
\Glaive\, n. [F. glaive, L. gladius; prob. akin to E. claymore. Cf. Gladiator.] 1. A weapon formerly used, consisting of a large blade fixed on the end of a pole, whose edge was on the outside curve; also, a light lance with a long sharp-pointed head. --Wilhelm.
The way I used it is what they call this three bladed weapon that the Huntress's use in the game Warcraft III, which is what this character is based on. You know I had this pic in my sketchbook for a long time, and never saw the proportion error. Isnt it funny seeing things out of other people's eyes?

Aha, so you're using Painter 8 already 
I really like this pic 
But like always, an amazing pic! Oh and yes, even if I don't have a tablet, I'd rather do the lineart using pens 
I hope someday you let me colour one of your drawings

Wow, such a great pose, so much movement to it. The purple is so exotic, I like how there are also hints of it in the background. Really helps to tie the image together. Beautiful shading on the skin, the highlights are just lovely. The only thing which bothers me is how large her shoulder looks, but that's a personal opinion. Very nice work!

Thanks.. I know I have a tendency to exaggerate features and musculature. Comes from years of comic art. Superheroes, ya know. Thanks for commenting!
