A little action scene With her brother around, it seemed unlikely to Jodi that she would ever have to worry about taking up arms. As refugees, Levi could provide for the both of them while staying clear of occupying forces, and this was a good enough life for the time being. It was unthinkable that he could be captured and taken to an internment camp, yet Jodi found herself alone, gripped with the guilt that her brother might have sacrificed himself for her sake. Even if it really wasn't her fault, the young vixen made it her ardent mission to see Levi set free. There was no advantage in fighting an infantry droid head-on, so Jodi put all her effort into attacking the weak spots up close, where no one should have been so audacious to strike.
This one took a while... And unfortunately the paper I chose for this work was too lightweight, which translated into difficulties with marker work The paper is still mostly flat and not saturated to the point of distortion as was the case with "Solitaire"! I tried a few different coloring techniques here, including (what I hoped would be) more bold secondary lighting, perhaps most noticeably in the electric glow. This is something I hope to learn much more about in future drawings. I also had the opportunity to design some sort of robotic soldier (actually, quite a new experience!) and the camouflage on his Kevlar-covered armor plating.

I absolutely love the background you put together for this, and how the lushness of the forest contrasts with the gracelessly mechanical look of the robot fighter. It really emphasizes how alone Jodi is against her enemies, just as the sparseness of her gear helps to make her fight seem that much more desperate. Though I can't help but wonder a little about the people she's fighting. I can't decide if the little bits of camouflage on the big, shiny metal robot look more careless or arrogant. (Which isn't to criticize your design, you understand! Regardless of intent, the robot looks really cool.)
I really like the little bit of background you wrote for this, too. The picture is fantastic all by itself, but the story is the final touch that really makes it shine, I think. It really makes you want to know what happens to Jodi and her brother, and to hope they make it out okay. Whether or not you plan to do any more with this character, I think she's fantastic!

"Holy shit" was the first thing going through my mind !
Very awesome piece of work, I love the fierceness and the nature around :)
(Also, wires never sparkle like that, not single ends, they got to touch something to sparkle, and sparks only come in the moment of touch, when there's already a connection then depending on current you gether get fire and smoke on the wire end, or that inside the robot/device/whatever. Don't believe movies :P)

Wow I very much enjoy the smooth coloring on this piece. You did it alot of justice and I would love to say it would look wicked framed and on my wall...coughs...I mean a wall!
I look forward to seeing more work from you in the future. Lucky for me I didn't get working on the digital piece yet cause I just ordered my wacom tablet today :)
