Draw and color anime girl step by step process another attempt!
My last attempt to revive the old drawing of Anime looking character was not so successful. So I take a different direction. I am looking at a simpler and going with a fewer values.
Because of last time I try to maintain the simple anime face and try to render everything else out...it clashed. Now, I am doing less but adding more of other element instead like designs, costume and such. It works out better than last time so it looks like I will be able to finish it in a couple sessions. It takes a lot of thinking than I think it would. Since I am doing the realistic render/ painting concept at work all day. It's a little tricky to switch the mentality and simplify and make good looking cartoon.

Hey, thanks for all the feedback GUYS!!! Appreciate :)
I clean up her skin tone on the chest area, I figured it doesn't need that many values as I previously painted. Sometimes it's necessary to scale back the value range and keep it simple for the sake making it looks better. :)
I change the leather color to white because white make it look more futuristic/ sci-fi and that what I am going for in this one. Brown leather color usually goes well with fantasy, western, etc.
Here is almost final version...
And of course...THE SUNSET way in the back behind them buildings for Pokepetter.

Knuckle> Kapow will be back :) for sure. Thanks for stopping by.
I like a lot your work here in idrawgirls, and thanks to your tutorials i´ve been learning to draw and painting a lot better in digital media \o/. But I´ve some questions. First Do your worl the characther on another layer and the background in a layer below? A second do you pretend to make a pack of your brushes*I think many people would apreciate it.
Thanks
The way Xia works is usually just on one layer, but when adding new objects/highlights and so forth he'll make sure it works on a separate layer first, then merge down. He also makes multiple copies of his main layer as back ups. I think the reason he works like this is because he likes to digitally paint like he would on a real canvas as much as possible.
Anyway when it comes to layers alot of people work with them completely differently - some have many layers, others have a few. Go with what's best for you. Having lots of layers helps with altering certain segments of your painting (if you can keep track of what is on what layer!).
I don't know what you mean about a pack of brushes. If you mean does he have custom brush sets then yes, and he usually supplies them with his downloadable tutorials. If you mean does he organise his brushes into different categories then I'm not too sure. I don't think he does but really again that is down to how you as an artist want to organise your working process.
Anyway I hope that helps, because I feel really weird typing out how someone else works! Good luck.
Just think of Layers as tools in the process to get you to get to the final.
If you are graphic designers or graphic illustrator, you might need to keep your layers separate.
Chris> Thanks again for having my back. :)
