Sooooo... Ever have one of those sketches you're afraid to touch? lmao
I love this sketch, but am really afraid to try doing more with it. I think I could handle it even without the jitter correcting my normal programs have, but I'm honestly afraid of this picture. [b]I'M SO CONFLICTED!!![/b] This is a second tier sketch, meaning that there was a layer under it, which I accidentally deleted then saved over... -_-;
This is supposed to be a pic of Ophelia, and was supposed to just be a warm-up drawing of her so I could include her in my folio. I'm honestly more happy with how this came out than the idea I had for the other image. This seems to capture her character more than the pin-up I had planned. She can be playful and cheery, feeling more in tune with her oddball cousins (Ian & Lil) than with her clan but, she is also quite somber and deeply introspective because of how she was taught to see things by her mother. I think the look on her face kind of captures it and leaves me wondering if I can do smoking pin-up with her, or if I should do a few pictures of her in this direction.
What do you guys think?

Thanks. I might try something more carnal with this character once I get a few like this out and polished. I just have to make sure not to save over a work file as I go, lest I fall prey to another of those great art creation scourges, loss of source file. o3o

Wouldn't it be easier too keep every sketch level on its own layer and have one source file? Unless I'm not getting something here.
I have lost my share of source files in my lifetime too, I backup like there is no tomorrow nowadays.
Looking forward to the result!-
I respond with, people do very strange things when running on little sleep and I'm very limited on data storage options at the moment. -_-;

Know that feeling, sometimes I don't want to touch what my past self did, afraid my present self is going to break it. I'd say go ahead, her expression invokes the emotions and feelings you are describing.At the end of the day, you best know how you want to present her, a more carnal pin-up can probably communicate the same feelings too if pulled off well.
