Working on a scene from League of Extraordinary really long title blah blah blah.
Mina goes all vampire, good times.
Anywho, here's what I have so far..


Aside from looking cracked out, her face's outline needs anti-alising, but that'll come later with her hair and a simple background, as well as the rest of the composition.

Originally intended to use this for the pixelween contest, but I'm going to find an actual horror flick instead of super vampire girl to pixel for that.

Ok, enough of that. Feel free to say whatever about this; that's the fun of this place.

so far 24 colors. Hopefully I can keep it all under 32 in the end.

EDIT: I still need to move the ear, but the 2nd update is up.

its looking good so far...the only things i notice is that the orange
near the eyebrows and the nose is kinda odd and that the eyes arent
correctly positioned...

Nothing wrong with recycling color (recycling in real life is more costly than creating new products and replacing the resources..funny, isn't it?).
As for her eyes, the ear, I've noticed needs to be moved down further. Her eyes are in the middle of her head and since it's turned, they're right. (also note that not all of her head is visable..she hasn't a large forehead).

I'll recheck her eyes, though (thanks for that) once I move the ear. :D
Thanks for the comments, guys. ^_^
If there's anything else, let me know.

edit!
Ok, Imoved her ear and repositioned her eye (our right). I've begun the hair as a giudeline, mostly, for further shadow cast onto the face and also just to begin the hair.

--> This curly/flippy hair-do is mostly just filler. It's more or less straight and long..and there's another head blocking this flip which only exists in my mind anyways.


Plenty still needs to be done. I'm up to ..27 colors..maybe? Forgot to check.

The left eye (our left) is too far from the nose. the distance between
the eyes is the size of one eye. you moved the ear too much: its
bottom should be aligned with the nose and its top with the eyes. and
i relly think you should take that orange thats below the eyebrows...

sorry to be so harsh on the comments but i felt like i needed to
say this to you...

The alignment is skewed on account of the perspective.
the left eye, our left, is the closer of the two..so I don't want tmove it closer, I think. And if you shift her head upright, her ear is in line. The top of the ear isn't visible at all. without the hair, it doesn align with the eyeline.

thanks. :D
They're not harsh at all. proper placement of facial features is important.

I think I'll come back to it in a couple days and check the proportions again. They'll probably seem all wrong to me XD and I'll end up changing them.
