Description ...Counting the hours until the morning sun...



Finished my assessments (well the ones due tomorrow) and felt like drawing my OC Aysha. Nothing special.
As ~ornate-simplicity said, I don't give her enough attention. Especially since she's my protagonist...
Sorry about that Aysha, I just find you very difficult to draw.

I listened to this song on repeat while drawing: [link] (same one as I posted in my journal)
I'd even go so far as to say it's Aysha's theme song. (Do you give your characters/stories soundtracks as well? XD)



Pose reference: [link] by ~CurlStock

Even with reference, my anatomy majorly fails.
GUH, cannot.draw.feet.

Character + art (c) me *nightshadevalentine

Aysha's pose definitely has that feel of kama sutra
But maybe i am just biased because her name sounds middle eastern

The gradient shading is sooo magical. *touches*
I love the composition of this too!

I have no other option but digital at the moment - I refused to bring my prismacolours and artbooks with me. Too distracting! XD

I think you did a nice job on her feet... the little bit of a curl you added to the 3 toes on her right foot, and the sole/heel of her left foot. Plus the attention to detail... like the stitching on her pocket and the dimesion you've given her clothing.

IMO... it's usually the little details that will make or break the picture.

P.S. Stop being so hard on yourself

...you've never heard of Wicked? It's the story of the Wicked Witch of the West from the Wizard of Oz.

They turned it into a musical as well
