Splinterlands art contest | Lira the dark

¡Saludos comunidad! Hace mucho tiempo que me habían sugerido entrar a concursos de Hive account@splinterlands pero nunca me había animado, hace poco decidí por fin hacer mi primera entrada así que para empezar busque un personaje de este juego con el cual me sintiese identificada, me gusto “Lira the dark” me encanto la paleta de colores que tiene y me parece un personaje bastante sensual y hermoso, que a la vez impone bastante y aunque me cuesta mucho realizar trabajos de cuerpo completo o más allá de un retrato, pase horas dibujando y arreglando cada detalle para hacerla lucir hermosa. Me gustó mucho el resultado y espero haberle echo honor a este personaje.

Greetings community! A long time ago I had been suggested to enter Hive account@splinterlands contests but I had never been encouraged, recently I finally decided to make my first entry so to start I looked for a character from this game with which I felt identified, I liked “Lira the dark ” I loved the palette colors that she had and she seems to me to be a very sensual and beautiful character, who at the same time imposes a lot and although it is very difficult for me to do full body work or beyond a portrait, I spent hours drawing and fixing every detail to make her look beautifull. I really liked the result and I hope I have honored this character.

For this drawing I made a sketch guiding me from the original image of Lira, I wanted to make it very similar but in a slightly different pose, so I worked a whole night on this sketch until I was finally happy with the result, highlight on top of the original sketch that it had many confused lines and then I started to paint the next day, respecting some colors of the palette of the original drawing, but adding a little more light and a background that would give a little meaning to the red and light blue reflections that it has in his silhouette, but this would be later.
For her body I chose blue and gray tones, I liked this tone because since she is a vampire she should look a little pale, I applied all these tones in all the visible parts of her skin and I began to mix each color until it was shaped.

Throughout the illustration I made a lot of changes to the sketch, for example in this part I painted the clothes and covered her legs a little more because it looked a bit strange at first haha, I also made changes to her face, eyebrows, eyes and mouth, I painted all her clothes, necklace and hair, in the hair apply the same red and light blue highlights, for the accessories use silver tones with highlights of the same tone and white flashes of light.

For the background I put first a base black color and then with a smoke texture brush make this lighting in both corners, also adding some rays on both sides, paint the rest of the accessories and on his hand using a layer with adjustment of color make a highlight in red, finally make some details of light in all his face and body, to highlight some small parts and color adjustment in the whole image for more intensity.
