Promise - Edited

Description

"It will be okay, I promise!"
"Now, within my own heart,
I want to keep you warm
So dear, and yet so far -
In the name of peace"


It's my first "real" attempt at digital realism. :blush:
Can you believe the coloring shading is all on one layer? ^^;
This is a picture I drew of *swordclaw42's character, Fesdair. I wanted to practice digital realism, and her characters are always very inspiring to me.... ^^;
I hated this so much when I first started. It was so annoying, and since most of the action occurred on one layer, I had to be precise... :no: Didn't like it! But after I worked on it more, I started to like it more....^^;

It's of when she has to take care of Hykian and she's telling him that things will be okay, even though they have nothing left.
....but I think it looks more like a combination of my mom(when she was younger), Rinny and I, to be honest... :ashamed: I didn't mean it, I promise!


If it looks too light, please lemme know, so I can darken it! :D

Tools:
MS Paint (for the basic outlines)
GIMP 2.6 (for everything else)
-Used the pencil tool mostly.
-Then abused the blur tool. :ashamed:
-The used the Burn tool to make it all a bit darker when it was done
Computer Mouse (for everything)
