Artist's Comments

I finally finish something, and DA's completely changed their category system when I wasn't looking. ^^;

So, I've been working on refining my new digital coloring style, and I think I'm homing in on it. This time, I sketched her out on a piece of scrap paper, scanned it, inked it in Illustrator, and colored it in Photoshop. Illustrator line art takes a bit longer than Photoshop or hand-inking, but it's totally worth it, and the new coloring method is faster anyhow, so it balances out.

This character is a new one I just randomly made up. For some reason, her name ended up being Vermillion. Yeah, I don't really get it either. ^^; She's a little tsundere, very nerdy, and lives in a steampunk world, but that's all I know about her at this point.

Pencil, paper, scanner, Illustrator, and Photoshop.

Thank you! I figured if I was going to be lazy on the background I may as well make it fuzzy focus. :XD:

Your vectoring skills are brilliant, they blow mine away! It does pop off the page, the colours rock.
