Description
Final art for a GI Joe character for 's recent Art Jam.Colors by me.
Inks by me. [link]
Poorly-scanned pencils by me. [link]
I made her a red head (the reference picture i was using had her with brown hair) because i thought it worked better for the color composition, and i didn't think it was too big a change from the original design. I also like red heads.
I don't really like the way the cape came out, and there's a butt load of tangents in the legs/cape area, so your eye gets kind of confused at first, but i think the colors help a little. Each stage of a picture should work on its own, but hey-- lesson learned.
Let me know what you guys think.

Damn... I love what you did with her character design. Her uniform is very hot & elaborate in its rendering. The character lines are well done, especially all the areas of her exposed skin, but not sure I remember her barefoot... But I am not complaining here, her feet look great with the spurs & stirrups, grieves & the top bone plate with it's additional hooks. The armor is just great! Her stance & the tattered cloak along with how she holds it with royal elegance also betrays the assassin within her. This image blows my mind with the variety of contrasts, & the inking as well as coloring is superbly set. Hair color doesn't matter much at all with an illustration this well put together.
Beauty is her with this image... Thanks for sharing it.

Nice man! I think deviating from the og colors helped with the contrast, definitely easier to read, well done man!
