Why yes! It's one of my Valkyrie characters depicted actually USING her powers! Amazing! Although here, it seems she's not quite at ease with it.

In case you're just tuning in, Vera's got stealth powers to augment her spy role. Thing is, she's still learning how they work.

Personally, I'd love being able to turn invisible at will. Growing up with all those cartoons showing the main characters playing around with vanishing creams or invisibility spells warped my fragile little mind. Ah well, at least it was better than football

Production on this one went pretty fast, compared to how long I usually take. I think I've nailed down a colored lineart workflow that does the trick, knock wood.

The hardest part here was working with the gradients. Fading from black to color or transparency doesn't work like it should. The color end comes out at about 2% from the actual color you pick, which is bad if you're trying to match that color exactly to another element in the pic. The way around it was to toss in a fade from color to transparency. That seemed to come out much smoother.

I suppose I could've just cheated and ran her through Photoshop, but I wanted to see if I could keep her master file vector based. Plus, I hate when there's two 'master' files, one for vector and another for post-effects.

Sorry if my choice of categories seems random. That's only because it is. There doesn't seem to be one up there for character art/design.
