Color - `vest


If there's anything that could describe the complexity and attention to detail in these lines, it would have to be 'hellish.' With so many overlapping elements, a dynamic flowing pose, and lots of different texture types to render out, these lines pose an incredible challenge to any mere mortal foolish enough to try them out.

Four days.

This took me four days to complete. But it was those 4 days that needed to be spent, refining the skill, and taking on highly detailed characters and applying an equally high-detail color work.

Hence the reason why the full view is so large. Normally, I try to fit the deviation to a height of 900, just so the whole thing can be seen. And if there are parts that I'm particularly proud of, I include a high-resolution version in my scraps. You guys aren't getting that option with this image. As I slay this beast, put it behind me, I demand ONLY a high resolution version, for there is no pixel I regret, no photon needing apology.

Eh, I'm getting ahead of myself. Really, I'm just glad to have gotten this one finished.

I recognize this great pose from someone who just colored the lineart, but wow this is impressive. Nice silver hair and background, cool crossing of silver arrows, and beautiful style of silver armor.
