This is the second picture I did of the RPG character I played with in 2004. This is what she looked like for the second game I played with her in (the game being Exalted). She gained silver hair, fusia eyes, pointed ears, and upgraded her weapon to an Orichalcum long power bow which doubled as a melee weapon. This was the same game that resulted in the Abyssal's Funeral chibi picture.

The picture was drawn by hand, scanned and then colored. Edited: New background! As with the other Aukalida pic, I have now given her a completely computer rendered background instead of a filtered photo.

Oooh! I love this and how you used a photograph for the background. I think it fits very well. You also did the colouring really well! Great job! ^^

:-) Annette M. Burke replies: "Thanks, I still have mixed feelings about the background, but until I can do astoundingly cool backgrounds, it'll keep the filtered photo. "

I really like this picture. The colors work so well together and your drawing is wonderful. The only thing that I didn't like was the hair, it seems a bit droopy like it is wet. I love everything else about it though! Keep it up.

:-) Annette M. Burke replies: "Well, I decided that I didn't want to do the huge anime hair sticking up, and I've been noticing a trend in more recent anime/manga toward hair that lies closer to the head so I decided to tame down the hair, keep it closer to the head and let it fall straight down. "

EXHALTED ROCKS! ahem.. sorry, i run exhalted for a group of friends and enjoy that more than playing... Umm. What cast is she?
Anyway, the pic! Its lovely. HOW DO you get the grass like that? please tell me! *gets down on hands and knees and begs* its so marvolous and looks like she's standing in lovely long grass. i need to know how this was done.

:-) Annette M. Burke replies: "Yeah, Exalted is the only RPG I've ever done. This character's a Twilight caste (totally awesome one too, rock out on the spell casting, she had solar circle sorcery, if I remember the circle names right ^^; , been a while). The grass was done using a brush I created in Photoshop. Creating your own is fun, and looks a lot better than using the pre-made grass brushes in the program. "

I really, really like this pic and I'm not sure why 0.o. Maybe because it looks like it could have come right from an anime, and a cool one at that! If you ever do include this picture or character or whatever in an anime movie, notify me and I'll totally see it 12
