Just a small snippet of a much larger piece I´ve started working on today.
After gathering up much of Jennadelle´s pieces (who has been inspiring me through my entire art career) I´ve decided to try and work more on my line art, my emotions/poses and my backgrounds/scenes.

These line arts have been done with nothing more than a 1 pixel wide airbrush in Paint Tool Sai. No thick lines, no huge amounts of detail with the lines alone, I´ll rely more on the coloring and shading to add in the needed detail I´ll be looking for. They´ve also been done in a dark grey rather than a thick black. I want her to blend in more with the background in the end.
There´s still the back foot I´d like to change/shift as it´s wrong from a perspective sense, it´s too far back.

I´ve also tried different kind of clothing, yet remaining with some of my more known styles of clothing such as the gloves and the lower leg/foot armor. The rest is more steampunk inspired.

There´s still lots to work on and I will keep working on it off and on, trying to better my skills and eventually (hopefully) print this out and hang it up in my own home.
