Title: Digital Painting - Final: Elven Swordswoman
Medium: Photoshop CS6
Scale: Each piece is originally 5” x 5”
Notes: We were given free reign over what our final project was to be.
In the vein of Baldur’s Gate fantasy portraits, I decided that it would be really awesome to go ahead and try and turn some of the fellow students in class into characters that I would attribute to being in that realm of fantasy.
This is Brittany Moore, turned into am Elven Swordswoman.
It was an almost immediate response here… I just hear this yell across the class, “I want to be a chaotic-good ELF!” Ask, and ye shall receive.
My choice to go with swordswoman was generally simple. I wanted to have a melee fighter alongside the ranged fighter. With the way it is designed though, I kind of consider this design a half-elf, but… meh, I’m not going to nit-pick.
About the only critique that I remember from this piece was that the hair on the left side of the face should have been blended a bit more into the backdrop.
I have to admit, this is my favorite of the bunch, mainly because of how life-like the eyes are.
But I also have to admit that it wouldn’t have been as kick-ass without Lane Brown’s input. That guy is a badass!
