Artist's Comments
Here is another Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess painting, this time of Princess Zelda.
This was quite a challenge for me, drawing all the detailed armour, jewelry and the sash that hangs from her dress, but I really wanted to give it a go, so I pressed on. Colouring this was so fun, getting to use all these different colours was great, and learning a little about cel-shading techniques by observing the original's colouring, but making it into cel-shading, and making it up as I go along. Refining the sash pattern's lineart with a .7 pixel pen was a little daunting, as I had to erase a lot and try to make the lines darker and defined, but it was a good experience. Drawn from an official Zelda artwork, courtesy of the Legends of Nintendo. Lineart drawn in Open Canvas. Painted in Photoshop CS. Took about a week. EDIT: I've finished the picture, painted the rest of her skirt and sword. ~blacksicanmofo asked if he could have my permission to use this painting for a tattoo he wants to get, and asked if I'd finish the rest of her dress for completeness, so I did! Thanks so much for looking/commenting, hope you like it.  Artwork copyright bratchny (Lauren C) 2007-2008. |

Used a big brush to make the large areas of shade/highlight, and zoomed in and used a smaller brush to make the shading smooth around the edges.
Hope that helps, I'm a bit tired so explaining things is kinda hard

you've managed to get the shading just right... and from the way you described it above doing it by hand? very good.
I tend to use the pen tool lots as i'm not too steady - considering i hold the tablet like paper while my laptop is on the bed... well i cant be bothered to clear off my desk
shes so pretty - love the armour

'You want to know how the universe began? That question makes no sense and has no point! The brain knows so much, there will always be an unsolvable mystery, and to that forms the basis of religion.'
I've never really had a go at the pen tool, I reckon it'd make drawing the lineart ten times as quick, but I love doing lineart, so I'd rather take my time and do it manually. Zooming in to 400% helps to get the lines smooth, haha
I wasn't very steady when I first got my tablet 4 years ago, but with practice, you get better.
