A photshop painting completed Oct. 12, '06.
This is a big buff Street Fighter/Parisian Waif. No doubt she has travelled back from the future to clobber Germans for the Resistance.
A work in progress of this is over here: [link]
Yeah, you totally did an amazing job finishing this one up. Excellent detail on the outfit and her and...pretty much everything. I'd say you should do more with this character but it's up to you. I really love your style of anatomy and facial profiles, though.
Did you use textures to get the background looking like that? It looks like a brickwall that had a logo or some propaganda on it and was painted over with a smattering of colors. And did you use any blending tools to soften the gradients between the highlights and the shading on the figure? Kinda curious but awesome outcome!

Again your shadows amaze me, and are making me want to increase the shadows on my own work, seeing as how nicely they define the form of the character. Great work.!

For the background I scribbled in photoshop using the chalky buildup brush (I think), then I added in a wall texture from a photo, and set it to Luminosity, I think-
For the figure I used the photoshop paintbrush at 50% opacity- frequently sampling intermediate colors to blend colors together- to soften the gradations of color I used the same (paintbrush 50%) but used a large fuzzy brush to smooth things out.
I also ran a filter over the figure when I was done painting- either Conte Crayon or Chalk and Charcoal- and faded the effect to get a bit of texture to her skin.
It's kind of hard to explain, because it is seat-of-the-pants Photoshoppage a lot of the time.
If you have any further questions about it, drop me a note, I'll try to elucidate.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

His name was Solo, he was a pirate. With a blaster at his side and a smile twelve parsecks wide.
That's your basic awesomeness there.
