Description
Yeah my first 2007 pic !Well it's a character from Naita on Gaiaonline.com. It's a last minute entry for his contest.
We could make the characters in a masquerade party. I loved Linaia, a quiet and calm woman.
For the mask I looked around on google to inspires me, not a lot of masks pics. I decided to go for a bird mask. Interesting thing, I doodled some design on paper to get ideas and did it from scratch directly on Illustrator.
I started it yesterday and finished it today, so hum I did it in about 10 hours. I was pretty quick but I had to not miss the deadline !

Your color work keeps getting better and better, Dede!
One of my favorite areas is the green hue that you have pulled from the background and reflected in her hair. That, and the little ribbon curles coming from the corner of the mask.
This is a very peaceful image. Keep up the fine work!

your welcome! I think you should do maybe a small tutorial on how you start out and what the ending product looks like... so I have some idea what to start... he he.

Mmm that sounds great to do.
I should make a step-by-step tutorial for this kind of style, maybe another pic with the same process cause I didn't save enough screenshots of this pic to be able to make a tutorial.

So sooo do you like Illustrator ? do you find it easy or difficult to use ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
When it comes to computer programs I just have to remember what each button does. Right now it's kind of hard because there are so many buttons and actions to remember for that program o.o But once I get it all down I think it will be easier.

Sorry for late answer, lol.
So how's your training on Illustrator ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is going well. I am not very comfortable with it because I always seem to make some sort of extra shape that won't color the same as the other shapes >.< But I am still practicing.

Sorry for my late reply, hope your practice goes still well
