Description
Just another piece of Jean, this time wearing some of Scott's merchandise. Getting the lighting right for this one was a bit tricky, especially since it didn't really cat any shadows in the image I based it on. But hopefully it turned out alright.

This one was another exercise in consistency, as I tried to get the same representation of Jean as the last time I drew her:

I think I did alright, though her nose might be a little off. I won't pretend that I didn't absolutely love drawing/coloring her hair again (just one of the reasons I opted for her modern look, rather than her look from The Ultimates).

Anyhow, let me know what you think -- any comments, critiques, or tips are welcome and appreciated.

Disclaimer: I’m red-green colorblind. Because of this, it’s difficult for me to tell similar shades/hues of different colors apart, and, therefore, I need to work with very limited palettes when I color pieces. For shading and highlights, I’ll start with a gray base and lighten or darken shades from there, and then add a color overlay (and, for some skin tones, attempt to add a blue overlay to make it less “hot”). I’ve often been told to be bolder in my highlighting and shading, and I’m trying to be so, but… sometimes it still seems pretty tame. I’m just saying this in case you mentioned I need to do that on a previous piece – I’m not ignoring you, and I appreciate the input. It’s just not very easy for me to implement confidently.
