Painting over my old anime girl drawing process, girl with guns!
This one sketch and quick color of Anime Girl I did a couple years back. And I thought it is a good time to kind of revive and paint over and see what I could come up with.
There is something about this color sketch even though it's neither finished nor anatomically 100% correct. It has something that I am fond of, could not pin point what it is.
I really have a hard time repainting and reimagining the image as it exist. The process goes really slow, I am struggling to make it look better overall. I could not resist trying to make the face become a little more realistic or render it out. But every time (I did a few versions) I paint over the face, it lost its originality or its identity. Plus, none of them looks as charming. So I decided to leave the face as is for now.
Here are step by step of what I did with it
Grrrrr.......no so happy here yet. Still to be continued.
I wasn't really happy with the result of what I've done to it so far, but there are some elements that I think worth keep working on and spend a few more hours exploring. I might be able to turn this sinking ship around. I'm thinking using the character's proportion and shape from the 2nd panel with the latest version of the scene possibly.
Anyhow, this one went on the wrong direction so I did another one which is more of what I am looking for here draw and color Anime girl step by step.

Zaphid> You are right, I am trying a bit too hard to put the 2 and 3 together and it didn't go well. So I went back to step 2 and then restart from there again. Just post the latest one on front page. Thx bro!
Keep up the great work. See you around. Thanks again for your support and kind words.
