River Nymph Fanart - Splinterlands Art Contest Week
(Edited)
Greetings!
Welcome to another edition of my Splinterlands fan art. This blog contains the step-by-step process of "River Nymph" fanart I created.
Below is the final art that I created. Also, check out the art process, inspiration card, reference image, device, and software I used to make the fan art.
Inspiration card - River Nymph
Art process
The theme of the character I used is blue, so I outlined it in blue and then cleaned it up. I didn't change the outline color to black (which I usually do) because the theme of the character is blue.

Then I outlined the eyes, nose, and lips and started coloring her clothes.

I continued by putting some highlights and coloring her face.

I put color on the hair and then I started putting some shadow.

I continued putting some shadows, and highlights, and I started finishing up the hair.

Then I put color on her lips, added the bracers, and added the pink blush on her cheek.
