Hello, Holozing!
This is my first entry for the Holozing fanart contest. I don't know if it's still ongoing but I just wanted to share my work.
This may not be a winning piece, but as I said, I just want to share my work.
I used Medibang Paint on my Huawei Tablet in creating this piece. For this work I chose to do a female Ocean Healer.
I have a confession to make, I rarely draw female characters. I find some difficulties in drawing the right proportions and pose. Nevertheless, I wanted to overcome that challenge.
The Process
As usual I started with rough sketch using the pencil brush, then changed that layers to blue. I used to do the sketch all in one layer. In this work, I decided to draw the hair seperately.

Using a Pen brush, I traced the outline. I did a lot of correction while doing my outline.
Skin Color
I imagine the Ocean Healer to be exposed most of the time to the sun. Thus I gave her a sun-kissed skin tone.
Facial Tatoo
I added a facial tattoo in the form of a sea horse.
Meet Macey - The Medical Assistant Clam Drone
I imagine the healer uses advanced technologies in diagnosing and healing others. Thus she has a medical assistant drone in the form of a floating clam shell. I named her Macey.
Macey can scan an individual for injuries and illness and can help administer medications.
The arm-band on the healer's arm is used to communicate and control the drone. Although the drone is AI driven thus has some independencies from the healer.
The Background
The background shows strong waves crashing on the wave breakers. I used the scatter brush with whie and different shades of blue, then I used the smudge brush to make it more dynamic.
First attempt.
This is not my first attempt to draw the Ocean healer. My original idea was she has her back turned. But I did not like the outcome.
Personal Thoughts
I realized a lot of weakness in my drawing style... that means I have to find ways to improve and refine my works in the future... the biggest difficulty that I enounter is drawing an anime like eyes...
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this still... until next time.
Thanks for your time.
