I was thinking of doing that at first. I just didn't like how it was going. Thank you for your comments.
Crimson by @dynamicsketch (Chris Engle)
Crimson is a character I had thought up nearly a year ago. The concept was a woman who was animal characteristics of warm and cold-blooded creatures. Half mammal, half reptile (or whatever).
I have to hand it to Miss Mab of Mab's Land http://www.mabsland.com for helping me design her. It goes without appreciation.
Neat design, and the shine on the metal parts is well done. The animal parts look more like gloves and boots than part of her, though. If that's the style you were going for, disregard my comment, but it would look a little more believable (at least to me) if you faded the animal parts into the human skin. Just a suggestion. Lovely picture anyway, great job on the shading.
