So it went from this …

… to this …

“sneer …” took me … three or four days? Multiple layers and media, playing with palettes, redrawing the linework for better proportions … whatever I was doing, I was taking my time, and y’all, I am so proud of this painting.
I am ridiculously happy with how this turned out, especially the little pasties. I think I may add a chest tattoo on there? I don’t know, I just feel like it needs a bit more oomph. Either way, I need to figure out a better way to transfer my art into its digital form, because a lot of the color was lost, especially in the nose ring and the purple amulet. But anyway, I’ll likely post the absolute final result over on my paintings page, so be on the lookout!
