Hey guys! How's your new year going? I'm gonna start this year with another artwork process. This one's another character of The Lost Ghost; Claire Mundy.
Before I begin, I would just like to suggest that you vote for @curie as witness here https://steemit.com/~witnesses. @curie has helped a lot of artist who's just starting here on steemit, just like me.
And also check out @smartsteem! I think they're onto something amazing for quality-post steemers!
References
So I found some good pose references from google images and Daryll supplied me with his rendition of Claire and her tattoo.
Sketching & Inking
Once I was decided with the pose, I went ahead and started sketching in Manga Studio (MS). When it got approved, I then started the inking.
Flats
Or as others prefers to call it, Base colors. ^-^
Cel-Shading
Rendered it in MS.
Painting
This is a combination of painting it with my personal palette and applying Gradient Map on Photoshop.
Final Product
Added some lighting and color tweaks.
I hope you liked my post and I hope you find this art process worth your while. I'll try to post more. ^-^
Bye for now!

Thanks, mate! Though it's more of a skill that I tried to develop over some years. ^-^

This looks great, but what makes me more happy to see is your sources of photos..it is hard to draw body, especially in that kind of pose from mind..thank you for sharing :)
