Jaco’s Random Writings

Well, it would appear that the lovely Miss Alita will have to wait a little. I had a long day and it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting to work on her tonight. I’ll make that a post for tomorrow night then. Tomorrow promises to be a long day too, so it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting to anything else either. Oh well, such is life. In the meantime, I’ve done some more work on the portrait of the random girl.

Did some more filling in.

I think piece of clothing going around her left shoulder should be darker. Way darker. Something that will accent her dark hair. Yeah. Also, I need to start thinking of a background. I’m not entirely sure what I want to put there. Let’s turn to the Alchemy piece that inspired her:

The Alchemy sketch of the girl.

In the background, I can see some robotic insects in the upper left corner. Could probably make them butterfly-like. Towards the bottom left, I see something that could be used as a marble railing or something. I could probably work some trees and natural landscape with some futuristic elements in there. Hmm, could probably put the pillars of that Skyway in the distant background. Interesting juxtaposition of futuristic and natural. It’ll be interesting to see how that turns out.
