Huntress PinUp

Description

The color version of my latest collaboration with :iconsilkspectreii:

A Huntress pinup

I'd consider this one to be the most ambitious and sensual one we have worked on together so far. My notions for it were prompted by another one of hers, which features Morrigan Aensland - [link]

Below are links to her color and original line-art versions.

Still of the two I think I still find hers to be more the one to aspire to. She's got the hands of an artist.

I'm more about imagination and words. However that doesn't keep me from dabbling in other areas.

After becoming employed again almost three months ago, I have had to work on this whenever I had time or motivation to do so. It is by no means saying this... she wasn't important to me...contrary wise... this means more than words can say at times.

Somehow the eyes and the skin were among the first to be finished, but then that somehow made it more specific to determine the rest of the colors. Colors for her hair, for her lips, and maybe the sheet around her body.

I also got a newer computer tower about the same time I started working on coloring this. So it came with a faster processer as well as a newer paint program. Some newer features were different kinds of paint brushes - one that resembles a color pencil style, water brush, oil paint, etc.

The color pencil one was used for borders and the shadows especially below her legs. The shadow detail cues I took from :iconsilkspectreii:'s version. What can I say... she inspires me much more as of late.

As for the colors in hair, a range of blacks. The skin is a mixture of oranges and browns. Purples were used the lips, the mask, the sheet, and eye shadow. I believed I used a blue for the eyes.

Oooh now this one came out incredibly well, I must say! :nod:

I'm loving these little collab pieces you're doing! It's giving you a chance to showcase your stuff!

I would have loved to see a background with this one! And make her stand out even more than she already does.

The purple coloring is VERY dark.. like it's almost hard to identify it as purple without me putting my nose to my monitor. But then again, I have poor eyesight. LOL. And I think i have my contrast too dark or something...

Either way, this came out awesome. very nicely done! :love:
