Just a piece I did for fun and practice. The 2 things I was mainly working on with this is color balance and lighting. I was trying to break out of an art block too kinda with this.
These are my characters, Rook (foreground) and Flasiere [Floss-ee-air-eh] (background).
Some things in the picture I could have worked on better, but by the time I was finishing up, it was already so late that I was too tired to do any more and some parts got rushed.

I was kinda inspired by griffsnuff on dA and the way she uses color in her pics when I made this, though I didn't refer to her pics while drawing this, it was more in the back of my head if anything xD
I didn't use any refs for this picture actually o-o Sometimes I like just working from my head to see what I know.

This was my first time trying a serious pic with corel painter too, I didn't have it on this computer for the longest time and not long ago I finally found the CD to install it. I like it. ouo I find the brushes more... balanced than SAI, though for the majority of this picture I had to have the opacity way down low to about 1 or 2, and then keep building from there. I think I may do more pictures like this. :3
