Good evening friends
Today for my entry this week to the @Splinterlands contest I have chosen Janni Rebel's card, which was extremely difficult to recreate but finally I did it, I wanted to use again the technique of drawing in grayscale since it was a somewhat complex drawing, I liked the idea of making it as similar as possible to the original so I practically left the costume very identical to the one we see in the card, after finishing the whole drawing in grayscale I began to experiment with many layers until I got a result that I liked, I always find these full body drawings super complicated but I like to practice them from time to time, you don't know how nervous I get but it's great to see that I can finish it, I hope you like it.
I made my sketch and then I started to paint with different shades of gray, adding lights and shadows, my favorite part was the abdomen, I feel it was the most realistic and perfect, little by little I painted in different layers each piece of clothing to have a better control when adding color, separating each thing would be easier and tidier for later.
After I finished painting everything in grayscale I started to add color, I started with the skin in which I tried to give it a light brown tone, I painted the eyes purple and then I added other layers that would help me to give more volume to the skin based on lights and shadows, for the clothes I used colors very similar to the original ones and I also played with different blending modes to make it look better, for the background I wanted a color similar to the one in the original card which are warm tones, but I tried it and I didn't like how it looked in my drawing, so I opted for blue and green tones, I also painted the hair with a dark green and some highlights with light green.
I finished painting the golden details and also started to make a color adjustment until I was satisfied with the result, at the end I wanted to give a cooler tone to the whole drawing and also added highlights in certain parts of the face that I wanted to highlight.
