Amazon Avatars Commission

Here's the final rendered image. After I'd done all the stuff that was mentioned in the prelim deviation, it all got coloured in photoshop. I'm really pleased with how it turned out, although being your typical artist, if things aren't going how I planned about half way through, I get really stressed out and frustrated with myself, which happened here. Does anybody else get this? Or are all the other artists out there sensible enough to at least get to the end before getting wound up? Anyway, this all turned out for the best and it's now one of my favourite pieces!

*UPDATE* - 22.06.09

Lots of folk have been very kind and complimentary towards this piece so I suppose I should include this info just so people know how much reference goes into a pic. Lots of great comic artists can draw anatomy correctly through practice & memory but you can never have too much reference! For each of the girls I used pics of: Top left: Pamela Anderson (hair & bust) Marla Duncan, waist & glutes, my girlfriend posed for the foreshortened arm and the 'come hither' hand! Top right: Debbie Auer, body. Again, my better half patiently posed for photos so that I could get the arms, shoulders and especially the hands right. Bottom Left: Lenda Murray, shoulders & back. My girlfriend for the hand holding the shield (she's gonna start charging me for this I'm sure!) Bottom right: Federica Ortu for the body AND the bow. Got very lucky with finding this photo as there can't be many pics of lightweight FBBs holding bows! The face was based on April Arikssen.

For the background I had to find pics of doves, stags, hounds, owls, olive trees, moons and even an old time hearth! I'd be screwed without the internet!
