This is what happens when you can't shake a silly idea until it gets done...

(Her lips gave me tons of trouble since the RWBY girls... don't actually seem to have any, as far as I can tell.)

Update: So I went back and added the sort of blue screen I've started playing with lately, and it seems to have cooled off the shadows on her features quite a bit. What do you think? Here's how the previous version looked:

Disclaimer: I’m red-green colorblind. Because of this, it’s difficult for me to tell similar shades/hues of different colors apart, and, therefore, I need to work with very limited palettes when I color pieces. For shading and highlights, I’ll generally adjust the ‘value’ portion of the HSV setting to make the base color lighter or darker; I’m unable to ‘cool’ shadows by adding blue or anything like that. I’ve often been told to be bolder in my highlighting and shading, and I’m trying to be so, but… sometimes it still seems pretty tame. I’m just saying this in case you mentioned I need to do that on a previous piece – I’m not ignoring you, and I appreciate the input. It’s just not very easy for me to implement confidently.
