Edit Feb 7: dcwj made an overpaint and showed how I could handle and tame all those different cyberpunk colors! I did what I could after that, handling details lights and saturation...
Edit Feb 8: Green eyes!
Here's DCWJ's overpaint of the old version if you want to take a peek :) (Smile)
Nova from Starcraft 2!
This commission was for a 60 inch tall poster, so it was really slowing down my pc near the end!
For the lighting reference, I mocked up a figma with a tiiiny wooden Ghost Canister Rifle to figure out where the colored lights would land.
The cyberpunk theme includes the mandatory chromatic aberration lol
The Starcraft franchise is close to my heart despite it all. It was my first published comics job, and I play the ladder nearly every day :) (Smile)
This commission was done for 250 USD and took 2 weeks to complete.
