Cranked this out in... a number of hours. Won't say how many but, I had to get it done. I really didn't like the lion's face and as I was penciling it last night, I wasn't so happy with Princess Joshalla's (Derek has a new name!) bikini and how I treated her breasts. I also worked on a some new reflection styles and also re-worked her paws.
What do you think? Improvement?
Now, I'm going to follow the advice of two different artists whose identities I've forgotten. The advice? It works for many things other than art.
"FInished, not perfect" and "Over. Next."
I could re-work it forever or I could take the lessons learned and apply them to the next piece. I'll do the latter.
Nevertheless, with all of this art-ing, I haven't had time for story-ing. I've got a rough story and will re-post the image with the finished story in a few days.
