My third Endless Gallery picture: Despair, the queen of, erm, despair. Yes, she's a she. No, you can't tell. With that face, how could you? As to my method, I just did a quickie sketch of her and worked it over a bit to get my usual digital painting look. This included colouring, adding details like warts and blotches, and some skin texture. The background is entirely from scratch. The web took just ages... and now 90% of it is obscured. :p This was a real quick one, I don't think I spent much more than about 12 hrs on it. For an idea of how much I added in "post-production", you can find (a smaller version of) my original sketch at http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~zek/art/base.jpg.
Very cool. I like how this was made from a sketch, great work B. Very Moody. My only complaint (and it is a small one) is that the text is a little blurry and not crisp around the edges.
