Description whee. this picture has been partially done for.. weeks. i wanted to do a picture focusing more on the whole cyborg thing with kei. ideally i really want to do a picture of her where you see all the strands of hair and it's all detailed and amazing. i however know that (especially working with a mouse) i'd become sick of it after doing like. 1/3rd of her bangs and stop and never finish it. so i decided to go the free-form pen route in photoshop so i could at least make it line-less. but doing that much by mouse, even w/ the freeform pen takes a while and after getting all of the flats down and like, one set of shadows i stopped working on it and completely forgot it existed until tonight and decided to finish it. whee. i'm reasonably pleased!

ru insisted her side glowies show through the shirt and i think she is better off for it, so a round of applause for ru.

Notes so people don't ask me a bunch of the same question: done off a base pen sketch, everything there was done in photoshop CS w/ a mouse. She's a cyborg, she's mine. the glowing bits are not tattoos, they're where the electricity in her shows through her skin. the 'texture' in the b/g is a stock of circuits. uhh, the usual faving w/o commenting is boo.

there's too much to randomly say on here so if anyone has any questions that weren't just answered there feel free to ask. whee i'm done with this, hahahahaha.

by all means sorry, didn't mean anything from it... i don't know much about coloring with the computer so...
anyhow! thanks for at least being willing to check into other ideas.

and i do stand by that this is a great piece of work, and it is good just the way it is as well. ^_^

I love the glowing bits, and the fact that they show through her shirt. Hurray for Ru!

I also really like the hair and the composition in general. The colours are put together really nicely!

I'd love to see more Kei! And I hope you get a tablet soon, working with a mouse hurts wrists like nothing else :[

aww.. I could buy you one for really cheap here in Malaysia, since they pretty much make them here ;;

Beautiful, just beautiful!
Making the energy flow visible through her shirt was a good idea. And I love the textures of her hair. Lineless is always awesome.

I love all the effects on this. I especially love the way her eye shows through her hair.

I know you're prolly too busy, but do you think you might be able to do a free-form pen tool tutorial? It's one of the few tools that i have NO idea how to use and you make it so appealing.

<3 I love your art and stuff and I'm thinking of doing a piece of fan work but i don't want to mess up any of your characters. Plus they are all so cool i don't think i could pick just one.

hmmm.... good enough. I should be getting my OWN PERSONAL COPY OF PHOTOSHOP in about a week or so so I'll be able to practice at home. It'll be joyous.

But if you decide to draw a tutorial made of fail.... then you know what we'll all want to see

'Sides you're Sasha..... you win at EVERYTHING. <3

I like it, the style is slightly different from what you normally do... or maybe its just the angle... I donno, but it's cool.
