Character Illustration : Desert Elf (Female)
Good day everyone! I'm back once again. I have here one of my character illustrations for the game "Alessia".
Desert Elves
have dark brown skin and are often dressed in Arabic styled clothing for desert climate. Within the mind of any sentient being lies power to rival that of the greatest magical artifact or holy site. By accessing these staggering vaults of mental energy, the psychic can shape the world around her, the minds of others, and pathways across the planes. No place or idea is too secret or remote for a psychic to access, and she can pull from every type of psychic magic. Many methods allow psychics to tap into their mental abilities, and the disciplines they follow affect their abilities.
Process
- (1) Sketch
They wanted her to pose as if she was floating and channeling energy
- (2) Values
I painted the character in Black and White first before adding the colors
- (3) Base Color
I added the local color for each element
- (4) And then added how Light influenced the character. I have drafts for where the effect is placed so I have a rough estimate as to where I should put the influence on the character
- (5) Effects
I add the effects last and place them on different layers. And noe this is also the final output
For the past few weeks since I started with steem and sharing some old and recent works i did, I truly realized how much I love creating characters and making environments (even if it's not that much for now). I hope to continue this passion of mine.
I love to stay for more hours in steem and interact with fellow steemians, but these past few days was really tough for me, I am open for commission on character designing and still looking for sidejobs and working on my homeworks at the same time ( i do leisure time like reading manhwa and watching ep of kdrama just to make me sane for the day to balance life) so I'm really sorry if I haven't interacted with dear steem friends. you know I love you all guys <3
Love lots

Thank you so much @ykdesign :) It's quite different from other mainstream elves in fantasy world hihi
Nicely designed. My favourite part is the fire effect that circles around her, its spark gives life to the character.
-upvoted-
Thaaaanks @scrawly XD yes yes I agree hihi the fire give the character life haha :D
Great work @adelair!!! How long does something like this take you to do? I love the flow of energy!!!
Thank you very much @charisma777
Sorry for the late response, usually I need to give the sketch to client first for them to approve beforing moving to the coloring stage, honestly I can't remember how long these character designs took me, I don't work straight hours a day but base on how I work recently I finish up the character at day 1 and on day 2 look at it with fresh eyes so I can see which part need to be improved XD it's so hard to judge when your eyes are used to seeing that painting for long hours XD so i wait til tomorrow :D
Must be nice to have your passion as your work, but don't overdo it and I think having time for yourself to balance things out is a good way to relieve stress.
Another great work, nice to see another type of elf aside from the usual blonde with green attire type haha
Thank you so much for your concern @ascheriit hihih yes I won't, I'll make sure to find time for myself and have a good jog and see the world outside the house hahahahha
yipyip, totally different from the mainstream elf we know XD
she is wonderful ! i like her design and the step by step presentation is also really nice :D i love the colours you've chosen here, as well, primarily on browns and golds, and the green shawl adds that little 'oomph' ... * ___ *
Very nice, @adelair <3
Thaaanks @veryspider <3 It's quiet different from the elves we used to know XD hihihi
