I got help with the magic and light thingso from this tutorial > [link] and it took about...2 hours all up on photoshop. The original picture took about..another 2 hours =/ The magic is done pretty badly and grass looks crappy and fake >< I know. It is actually the first time that I've used it for anything =/

I started painting the background in using a photo I took of it becuase I thought I deleted the scan. Turns out I still had it and put it in at the very last minute. The original picture + shading was done with my HB pacer on A3 paper in my design book. The scanning aint too great but it was the best one outta three =/

With the costume and overall character, I had inspiration and references from different places. The boots are jester inspired. Shirt and cloak from medieval..or rennaissance..I can't remember <<. The left arm is from the Mars clan from Golden Sun and that's it..I think. ^^;

Brushes used were the dune grass brush and a brush from the Karl S lenses brushes.

EDIT
I've resubmitted this with the magic sparklies being brighter. Tell me which one you preffered becuase I thought this one looked a little weird =/

Hi there XD

Glad you liked the tutorial, I have a few tips for ya about the magic effect

Did you do the effect on a different layer? To make it brighter, you can set that layer to linear dodge mode so it does not look dull :)

but anyway, good work, keep it up :)

Yeah I did everything on separate layers. I put it to linear dodge but I was afraid of the bright ness >>
:iconpearlphoenix:
until the brightness gives u a headache, then be afraid XD
