Description
This is my WIP coloured entry for the Battle Artist Competition over at [link] I'm still working on this so I've not entered it yet, but when I'm fully happy with it I will.This is the first time I've ever entered a "battle" there and I'm really pleased and excited to be a part of it
I put a lot of work into this so far, I'm giving myself a break from it before going back in and working on it some more.
I want to thank for the amazing rain brush found here [link] I used in this, I tried to make my own but I just couldn't get the look I was going for
Hope you guys like it so far!

looking good so far, the only thing i would recommend is to try the rain brush (not on mystique) it would make here pop a bit more if she doesn't have the same texture as the background. If you want to create the illusion of actual rain, you need the rain on a layer above the line work to that it is indeed over her and not within her...hope that helps and makes sense

From what I've seen of your work, I can't tell you anything you need to improve on!
I'm really having fun on this site I have to say, I've not been here a year yet and I've already improved quite a bit and made a fair few friends, collabing is SO much fun
And the layer over mystique definitely works better, thanks! I'm glad I didn't enter the pic straight away and gave myself chance to improve it with feedback

Thanks I'm not looking to win (that'd be nice though lol), the entering the comp is the main thing, I've watched for a bit and thought why not? i just want to enter the best version that I can do with my "skills"

Thanks very much, I can't see it being too much different from this version, except the change to the rain really I'd love to do more with the light though so we'll see

Thanks very much, that means a lot!
I put everything I've learned so far into this piece so I'm quite proud of it and it'll be the first piece I ever submit to the Battle Artist colouring competition as well so I'm looking forward to that as well as being nervous

I'm going to leave her for maybe a week and come back in and see what I want to change on her, I'm quite proud of her at the moment though, I know now I need to have this much focus on everything I do from now on
