Description
Phew, third commission down.
Yet still so much to do, agh!This was commissioned by the wonderfully talented =Kanuka76 (who's crazily adept at CSS, btw). This is her titular character, Kanuka.
I struggled a bit with this one at first because I've never really drawn armour before. However, after taking a break from the piece, I came up with this design. My style/approach is a little different in this piece, but I'm pretty happy with the way it came out.
I love drawing strong females!Hop on by to my blog for the WIP sketch & further comments.

This is the best dark elf illustration I have ever seen.

Being elven is more than simple genetics, it is a state of mind and perception, of love and gentle reverence of the night, with an inner Light more profound than the mystery of life itself.

This looks great it's exactly how we envisioned the Dark elves (also known as drow) when we first started writing about them a couple of decades ago.Β
Love

I love your work!
It would be an honor for you to do a new rendition of the piece in my gallery. You skill with the hair and colors in this piece is just masterful.
I found this piece through my cousin and had to come on here and comment. Your armor work is also amazing even with it being one of your first pieces. You have an amazing talent, keep challenging yourself and never become comfortable with your skill!!!
enviously yours,
Fatetaker

I love her lips ^^ and her face is cute _and_ dangerous. Like a lady who you'd better not hurt otherwise you can lose your balls. But as long as you make no mistake,she smiles at you nicely and lovely, and only the falsness of that innocence can make you remember that how dangerous she is.

this is so surreal. there is a story i am writing where the character turns to this girl. the only difference is that my characters hair turns red rather than white.

Love the mix of outlines / no outlines, it works perfectly! Really draws you into and around the painting. And really, you can't beat a bit of drow....
You are awesome!

Gorgeous! I love her eyes and her hair; the contrast between the hair and her skin is beautiful!

Love the pitch black skin with the stark white hair, there's something so intriuging about dark skin and light hair.

I really like this image...
I know how hard it is to use a lot of black and white and make it alive.
You made it alive, my favourite part is the eyes
