Description This is Semmi, the mage of a friend of mine from my guild. It started out as a painting of my druid, but her faced looked way too human to be a night elf, so she turned into Semmi!

I will probably (translation: maybe) add colors later, but I'm not really sure how to go about doing that. I wanted to try the whole getting the values right first thing that alot of people tend to prefer over just going straight into color. Anyway, now I don't really know how to add colors without ruining the values.

I'll try to figure it out later.

This is lovely. The perspective on her shoulder armor is perfect.

And as for adding color to greyscale drawings, throw a new layer on top of it, set it to multiply, and throw your base color onto that layer. You'll get some color onto it without losing your values. There's actually multiple ways of doing this (There's a method of throwing a overlay layer on between the two to add some subtle tints of color and to add some warmth to the colors which'll get layered above it)

Thanks! I'll try that. I did the whole new layer with mode set to 'color' method, but it just turned out looking funky. I'll mess with it some more and see what I can get done with it.
