Silent Nights

Super Epic Mixed Media!!

About this complicated picture:
The Traditional:
Lineart and much of the shading on pants/shoes/cape/hair are done completely in ink pen, inking over much of the original pencil sketch.

The Digital:
Coloring the entirety of the body, including the already shaded cape to add to the darkness (because black is difficult to achieve with a sharp pen). Experimental shading and lots of shininess (full view for golden shininess). The digital work was done entirely and fearlessly on the background layer because I learned that I don't like working with layers >____<

Bits and Pieces:
-12 hours of work put into this picture with interruptions of Zelda: Twilight Princess and lunch/dinner/bathroombreaks/TV
-I forgot I was in this contest until I decided to look in my note box. Thus the importance of sending notes to people like me who have no memory whatsoever.
-It was fun

Since this is what? My 3rd digital piece? So give me some advice
