Description

There's still some pieces from 2017 to upload and this is the first one I finished in 2018, but I don't really want to wait with it.
I painted incomplete grayscale version in 2015 and gave up on coloring after some rather unimpressive attempts, then found it while updating my dA around December 2017 and decided to give it another chance. This time it was way easier. Still took a lot of time and experimentation to color it, I had zero experience in coloring from grayscale and still have a lot to learn, but it was a fun process. I didn't have an exact image in mind, but I knew I wanted her to be a light elf with some kind of magical shield. I also wanted to give it some kind of dynamic feel, the first pose was quite static and boring.
It's colored in a bit different technique than my usual color works, thought it just looked better here.
I'm never 100% happy with my works but this one turned out not that bad :)

Painted by me, also available as a print.
