Hey, everyone! It's a little late for new year greetings but I haven't had the time to post! (for two months, I'm sorry) Well, I had a lot going in life... School stuff and all that adult stuffs. I'm graduating from high school this year! Yay!

Anywayss, before I took a break, I had this WIP posted aaand I finished it! (A long time ago actually; in fact, I have about 5 new drawings already waiting to be posted)

Soooo, I had this made because a friend of mine told be that Steam is actually accepting character skin designs for Dota 2. If it gets enough votes, it can be turned into a real skin in game! Then I decided to check it out AFTER I had finished my drawing. Apparently, it has to be 3D. Well, it still turned out nice and I'm still happy about it :>

The concept was actually made a long time ago. It was only just recently that I found motivation to finish my skin design. Months ago, I drew the upper of my version of Lina which I just realized I haven't posted yet! :(

Progress Shotssss ♥

Here are some of the progress shots that I managed to save. I tend to save my drawings and send it to myself so that I could view it on a different screen. My laptop screen is a bit colorblind, you see.

Sketchy

Rough Coloring

A bit too rough? :x

Defining

Heyyy, she has a nice face now.

New Year Bonus!

Since it was New Year, I decided to make some kind of special effects. Aaaand do what I did 4 years ago ;)

This was 4 years ago (I like Lina, mkay):

I was pretty happy with this! I just got my first drawing tablet on Christmas Eve of the same year :> I borrowed the fireworks from google images since I was pretty bad at drawing stuff other than faces. sauce

Aaand this is 2018 Lina! I did the fireworks myself :>
