Creating Elladora

First it started with small drawing in pchat.













Then I upped the size by 2 in Photoshop.




















Using openCanvas I redid the lines to make them smoother and hopefully look better.


















I always start with the skin, just getting the basics down for it with very little smoothing out on the rough parts of the coloring.



















Next I added some pale pink around her lip area, then I colored her eyes.

















Now for the clothing. I chose brown, a color I'm not used to. She's an elf who lives in the forest so no color really worked for her. I figured she'd have a deer skin shirt or something...












Last I did her hair and beads. It was the first time I used this way on coloring hair. This was probably the part that took me the longest to do.

I know it was probably boring but this is how I got the picture from start to finish. ^^
