Hey there friend! 
I totally loved Pepper back in my early days of dA; being half as good as Artgerm is still one of my main motivations 
Keep the awesome stuff coming!

Hi friend!
Yeah Artgerm is really inspiring *O*
I'm glad you like my take on her!
Wanted to experiment with the colors so I'm glad it you like the final result!
You're right about the green - I went back to take a look and she does pop more! sta.sh/01iqz1rmamzj

Good to hear!
And yeah, it makes all the difference, doesn't it? Has to do with separating the foreground from the background - value is one of the easiest ways to do it, I find. One particularly great trick is to use a different general value for the fore, middle, and backgrounds. For instance, using the darkest values in the background, medium values in the mid ground, and the brightest values in the foreground - but any order works!
You're welcome friend!

Yes, it's really great for establishing depth! I'm trying to spread this trick around like the gospel
Np~
