Happy start to the week friends! This time I present my new entry to the @Splinterlands contest where I was inspired by a card that looked quite striking for me and I wanted to make my own version of Ice Pixie, as you know, I love cold tones and this was the perfect opportunity to use many of these tones, I decided to represent Ice Pixie with a cold skin as if she were freezing, I also liked the idea of drawing this kind of ice that comes out inside her skin and in turn create veins of frozen ice, I wanted to make a quite cold environment, so the background is also a kind of ice with some broken parts, I really enjoyed making this art, this letter really inspired me and I loved it.
I started my sketch with a clear idea, I wanted to paint a pretty Ice pixie lying on the ice and make ice coming out of her arms, I chose a color palette of desaturated blues and started painting her face and body, I made a new layer where I would mix the tones creating smooth and beautiful skin, after detailing her face, paint her clothes using a dark blue and a bit of yellow.
Add some light to her clothes using a very luminous aqua tone, I applied the same tone to the folds of the dress to create volume but with a lower opacity, for the hair I used a white tone and I started to apply some light blue reflections , I painted the ice coming out of her arms, and then it occurred to me to apply some blue veins surrounding the ice but then I also thought about experimenting how these ice would look on her face so I painted some veins there, I liked how it was coming out.
For the background apply a dark blue base tone and then apply a light blue tone at the bottom, creating a gradient between these two tones, with dark blue I paint this kind of cracks in the ice, in a new layer I gave it more volume to these cracks, for this use lighter tones that will create a little depth in each crack, for the wings use turquoise blue, and a little white to paint some small veins on the wings.
I thought it was very nice to add a little snow in the background, finally I applied a general color adjustment to the image making the tones a little colder and adding some light details, I also liked adding a purple tone that made a little lighting the right side.

Pixie haircut = perfect. She's giving 1920s vibes, so pretty. 💙🤍
Oh yes! I love pixie haircut ☺️ I was inspired by a photo of me where I wore this style of haircut a couple of yeas ago
Thank you!!💖
Ah, so in that way you put some of yourself into your work. It's neat to learn a little about your thought process. 😊
Yep 🥰
Her haircut, the blue tones!!!! nicely done dear. Goodluck
Thanks alot 🙏🏻❤️
por curiosidad. ¿Cuánto tiempo tardas en hacer este tipo de ilustracion? Me gustan tus personajes, al bajar y verlo en los comentarios del concurso, ya se que eres tu obra sin ver el nombre jajaja.
😂 que bueno! A veces pienso que mi estilo no destaca mucho.
Bueno por ejemplo para este tarde dos noches en hacerlo, dibujo mientras veo series y se me.pasa el tiempo super relajado
leí "y se me pasa" como el meme jajaja
Yo me pongo a escuchar musiquita de fondo, con una serie de fondo creo que me entretendría mucho.
😂😂😂
Yo pensaba eso antes pero llegó un momento que me cansé de escuchar musica entonces dibujo con la pantalla divida de un lado la serie y del otro el dibujo, fue incomodo al principio porque la ventana del Photoshop se veía pequeña pero ya me acostumbré
Pura concentración
