Anyways , my third digital art from me . This is another original character from the manga of my creation 'Steel & Magic : Elements' (No name for now , but her cover-up name is 'Skogul' or 'Lady Death') . She is part of a mysterious legion that is almost unknown to all (Only a certain few knows of it's existence , but only just) & their job is to give assistance to normal beings in doing tasks they're not capable to do so by themselves for a hefty price . She has the ability to erase ones soul's existence completely . Normal death will usually reside in the underworld or heaven after their vessel had died , awaiting their time to be reborn anew , but she has the ability to stop it completely (meaning he/she can never exist anymore , not even in the underworld nor in heaven)

Although this took me months to complete , I'm still unhappy with the result but at least I'm happy with the main focus of the illustration which is the girl wielding a scythe . I got lazy with the rest right after I've done with her (Which is my fault) , probably due to fatigue in making this piece .

What changes I did with this one compare to the second piece :
- I try to make it less plastic-like to more illustrated-like
- More detailed background (Which I failed this time ..... better luck next time *sigh*)
- More play in lighting & color (Might improve more in my next work)


Details :
- Original
- A4 size horizontally
- 100% digital
- Approx. 80-110 layers
- Line Art (drawn digitally) as foundation & completed with Photoshop CS2 (in RGB color)
- Technically , all sorts of brushes & effects are used in this piece (too many to name out .....)
- I forgot how long it took to complete this one but it is for sure that it took me a long time to complete it >< .....

Artist's opinion on this piece :
Not happy at all with this piece ..... might want to remake the whole background when my skill is proven good enough .....

ON TO THE NEXT ONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*Note to self : Try not to think too hard on it next time*

That's it for now .
