Description
Done for ImagineFX Hand Painting workshop. You can find it in Issue 16 (I also made the cover for that one)
My goal was to create a bold mood without adding too much unnecessary detail.
Painted in Photoshop with some help from Painter. Refs for the pendant and marble (you can see it as a custom brush used for the face marks); light and anatomy studies for the character.
Linen done with a custom made brush consisting of a few lines.

Do you have models when you do these things or just make it up in your head and paint it?

Wow, fantastic. I love how the cloth is frayed on the end and the details on the top half of her face as well as the reflection of the necklace on her chin. The details on her hands are probably the most amazing part of this though. I love it!

It's the cover of a book I love very much! In English it's called "Lost Truth" I think. It's the third book of a series with 4 books. These are the german covers
But I like your version as well!

It's an excellent work, I trully love the way you manage light and shadows, and the textures in every surface...it's a great fantasy illustration.
You made me smile!
