I can't remember the last time I did a proper picture of her. D: Oops.
I'm pretty happy with it on a technical level. There's so many awesome artists here who get amazing results in Photoshop, but I've never been able to figure out how they do it. I tried out a bunch of different methods of coloring that worked out pretty well for me. I also had to throw out everything I knew about coloring skin and start over in order to get the texture and layered look right for her skin. I also spent a lot of time on the face because I know faces are something I'm not too good at.
It was a pain in the ass to figure out how to do everything all over again, but it was beneficial in the sense that I learned (and whined) a lot. And holy shit her colors are a lot more difficult to work with than I thought. Many apologies to everyone who's ever tried to do colored art of her. It's terrible. D:
Also, hair. Took forever. I like pain. Her breasts are also a little too big for the character, but I'm sure none of you are going to complain about it. ;3
I used some of Zhu Zhu's brushes for this, mostly the watercolor brush.
