This is awesome.

I completely forgot to reply lol From the start, I wanted to make sure the background was very "glowy" and bright with colors everywhere. Since her clothes were very similar in terms of texture and color, I wanted to make sure there were subtle differences to tell them appart instead of just being black on top of black and black. And at least for me, it made sense to have her sword as well, since she just stopped by in the world, I believe she would carry everything "vital" with her. Due to that, I didn't want to change the hair, so I thought the side braids were interesting enough so it's not "the same old hair". Overall it was a balance between adapting her to a different universe, but still keeping her "Ciri" instead of just "a cyberpunk girl with ashen hair" =D

Oh wow, this is amazing! I absolutely love the overall feel and atmosphere of this piece! The colours are so vibrant while maintaining that cyberpunky-neon feel with the bright blue and pink lights in the far background, all popping against both the sky, as well as the dull tones of the wall directly behind Ciri. Ciri herself features terrific colour contrasts with her white hair, bright green eyes and dark black clothes against her warm skin tones. The detail in the background is as amazing as ever with the fantastic rendering and texturing of the stone wall, as well as the dead android thing with it's head split open and the innards frayed about within, all of it's textures, both external and internal are brilliantly done. Ciri's rendering really is sensational also, all of her clothes features different textures and feels to them which is so very impressive, like the softer feeling material of her inner jacket, then the bright shine of her gloves, with the smoother, dull shine of her vest/bra. Her trousers too have their own unique feel and texture and I do love the metallics of her Witcher medallion as well as the outer, metal belt that she has from her original design. The actual rendering of all the clothing is amazing, like I adore the folds in her jacket and the tight, creased material of her gloves with the striking contrast between the material's colour and the bright lighting. You also perfectly captured the tight feel of her vest as it stretches across her breasts with the folds running down the centre and the tease of her nipples protruding through. And then her sword, belts, chains, straps and trousers are all exquisitely done too. Honestly, I have to rush this comment as I'm heading out so I have to be vague with my praise, but trust me, I am supremely impressed by all of the detail, lighting, textures and just plain everything! But I would be remiss not to raise Ciri herself as she is sensational! I love the brighter tones running along the top of her sweeping hair, so much detail there and the strands falling across her face look terrific. Her face itself is amazingly rendered and the uses of cool lighting and rim-lighting in parts give her so much extra definition and I won't lie, I do find the purple lips very appealing 😻💜 The rim-lighting on her arms is fantastic and I love the hard edges and painterly brush strokes that define her bending elbows and separate the planes there. Her mid-riff and the contours of her waist/hips are brilliant, the rim-lighting on the edges beautifully contrast against her skin tones, while the skin textures themselves are divine, with the many plane changes, smoothly and subtle defined looking so well done! Hopefully this shorter comment gets across just how much I adore this exquisitely done painting! Once again, you have outdone yourself! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 (Also, as a fan of both beautiful straight swords and striking rim-lighting, Zireael hanging off Ciri's back looks so damned beautiful!)

Thanks! It was really fun to do this one. A little tricky to find a pose that made sense for her, but I really liked the result =D

Lee

=D

Lee

It was really cool to do. I wanted to have more "flashy colors" and keep her usual "mad face" intact lol

Lee

Thank you!

Lee

Thanks! It wanted to make sure to keep the "Ciri look intact" lol

Lee

Whoa! Freaking Awesome! Love the intense look on her face!!!
