Description
Tink, the mischievous spriteI tried a new technique this time. I love the realistic result. I used Nathie's skin brushes and they made all the difference. I'll be doing a step by step tutorial of this image soon.
This is not a photo manipulation or 3D render. There was no over-painting or tracing. She was painted by hand.
Brushes by [link]

Photoshop CS4 + Wacom tablet about 15 hours
Prints available!
Thank you for looking.

Yes, I am still discovering new ways of doing things. I like trying everything- lose concept art, to realistic up close renderings. It's great to have an arsenal of techniques for my varying clients.

I don't know if you were going for it or not but it looks like she also has a sheen to her skin, maybe a mist or something has touched her? I love the effect over all but obviously, she's just gorgeous and gorgeously done.

I will definitely write up a tutorial for everyone because I feel like I made a breakthrough. Life's going to be a whole lot easier now that I know this new technique!

Yeah, I love those "lightbulb" moments when you learn something that changes the way you approach your art
