One thing I love about “The Legend of Vox Machina” is that, in addition to being a great show in its own right as well as a fantastic adaptation of Critical Role, I finally have a nice, simple, definitive color palette to work from.

So, here's Keyleth, the half-elven druid, who I've been wanting to draw forever.

Thank you for taking a look, and any and all comments and critiques are welcome and appreciated!

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 start with a gray base and lighten or darken shades from there, and then add a color overlay (and, for some skin tones, attempt to add a blue overlay to make it less “hot”). 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.
