Incredibly proud of this as its my first attempt at playing with textures and also a nice little intro to painting water.
Still a work in progress though.
The reflective quality was completely by accident but looks awesome. Basically magic wand'ed the hand after texture was mapped on and sprayed my areas of shade with a diffused brush tool which left it slightly 'Terri Gilliam'ish' and flat toned. Played around for abit and reselected the shaded areas with the magic wand again... This obviously only selected certain values. Quickly shaded over the selected areas with another diffused brush which resulted in the reflective quality... Buzzing to say the least :p
Anyway, this needs to be applied to the Cybergirl asap.
Few more areas of this to play with and then il move onto her.
The water/whirlpool/crystal in the palm was also just done using various shades, brush sizes and opacities till i got the desired effect.
A couple of washes with a very opaque dark blue helped soften the colour changes and final white highlights make it pop.
More soon. (really starting to enjoy this course haha)
