Sin'Dorei

I should mention, lately I'm doing digital paintings with the tablet instead of photomanipulations.

Sidenote - the tattoo on the nightelf is my logo. I always make it a part of my work somewhere.

Edit: Fixed some stuff, pointed out by ~Hano and a few other things I found. Discoloration issues, contrast/sharpness, and saved with png format for better quality... although it might take little bit longer to load, depending on your connection. You see all those little... shadow things that look posterized/choppy? That's what comes from trying to make the file smaller in jpeg. Stupid stupids... I'll fix that. Later.

Jesus, this thing is a beast. Or, was to complete. I started out with a base idea of changing the mirror images by =Elandria around, but when the very skeleton was finished, the idea fizzled out. Didn't know what to do with it, until I found [link] by ~barns-en... although I seriously couldn't imagine painting all those leaves. Okaynokay. This thing... took about 50-something hours to complete, over about the last week. Throughout the past three days, I spent about 20 hours on it.

Based on the Night Elves and Blood Elves from World of Warcraft. It didn't start out that way, but the more I worked on it, the more I started to see the resemblance to the blood elves, sooo... yeah. My brain does that sometimes.
