Hello guys! I'm a 16 years old girl from Norway, currently living on the South Coast and going to school there. I've been a member of ConceptArt for quite some time, but only posted once or something. I lurk, what can I say? ;)

I thought I'd share some of my sketches, drawings and paintings. I use Photoshop 7 with reference when I draw, little else. I started drawing about 2 years ago, then drawing anime and manga. I still love that style, but I cannot draw it. When I started drawing, I started 100% from scratch, and it took me a long time to realize that maaaybe I didn't want to draw manga after all...

One day I hope to make my own illustrated novel, and maybe in the future I'll be good enough to do some freelance work.

So! Crit and slaughter all you want!

First, a link to a sketchdump over at dA:

The file is too big to post here, but feel free to have a look if you want to!

And then, two digital paintings. I am very aware of the skewed face on the second, but I like it too much to change it. It goes so well with the character...

More to come!

The hands and coloring in the first one are great.
The skin in the second needs more values, but the gloves and dress are on point.
really nice start.

Yeah, I agree about the second one. I brushed over the skin with white to lighten it, it totally killed the values. Thanks!
