This character is one of two transmutation wizard vixens that jointly own and run a potion shop called The Peak of Potions. Why not see what her latest batch has produced? They're half priced, today only...
But HOLY SHIT I still can hardly believe I made something this good. There is admittedly no way I could make something of this quality on a regular basis unfortunately, I spent many many hours on this and often wondered how artists are able to put out stuff of this quality or higher every time and make it seem so effortless. On the other hand it probably doesn't help that I continue to use Paint.NET just because that's what I know and am used to. And that I refuse to use a tablet because even a simple circle looks like ass when I use a tablet for some reason. It's not even like I don't have the tools because I bought Krita.
I had to let go of a lot of perfectionism things that were holding me back to get this piece where it is, mostly with the shading. For the first time I tried to do a kind of skylight in addition to my usual cel shading. But I also went a little further and used the curves tool on the shading and added a little bit of noise to it to simulate how the eye perceives darker areas. There's also a ton of really small details that I threw in that make this just transcend any art I've done before, digital or otherwise.
Admittedly it's still not even 100% where I want it because she should be wearing a grey robe or cloak-like garment in addition to the corset thing and shorts, in addition to leg and arm wraps (the symbol on her necklace/choker is the Creation symbol I believe). I also probably should have made this a true full body and included paws/feet, but honestly, I put so much into this that I can't handle the thought of working any longer on it. It's been literal months on and off. And having started an exhausting job in the last couple of months I'm really not ready to address it for now at least. But regardless I am SO PROUD of this.

Thank you <3
I feel like there'd be more interest on commissions if I posted more often, but to do that something's gotta give and it could only become quantity over quality, which I'd hate myself for doing ;_;
Thank you so much for the immense support you've given including when you commissioned me in the past.
I hope you're well these days.
