Trial by Comics contest: Star Wars
Original trilogy original movie cut is the only real Star Wars for me...  you can take your director's cut, Holiday Special, prequels, sequels, Legos, animated series, merchandise, fan fiction, games etc etc etc, and call it something else - some of it is good, some of it is bad, but none of it is my Star Wars.  

It's also holy ground to me, as you might guess, and I fear to tread on it.  So for this Star Wars themed contest I decided to not paint Leia, but a Leia cosplayer.  Hope you all understand.    :)
I painted it in Photoshop on my Wacom as usual, it took about 1 day.

Here are some progress shots:

And the final again:

Thanks for watching!

This is incredible,  once again,  I love that you're creating art specifically for this platform.

That cosplayer has some real courage. I love your rendition. It's so three dimensional.

Also really funny to see Leia taking a selife.

I totally do not understand but that's okay, I don't need to XD Seems a lot of cosplayers like the slave costume, always looked kind of uncomfortable to me XD And as mentioned already, kind of funny to see Leia taking a selfie.

I love your skin toning, maybe if I stare hard enough I'll work it out :)

@stahlberg ·
Thanks!  It's not hard, if you know the trick - which is to start with a medium color first, fill the area flat.  Not the darkest and not the brightest, but intermediate.  The trick works no matter what color this is - you can start even with blue grey, IF THE LIGHT IS BLUE.  That's important.  The flat medium color must be chosen with respect to the color of the light hitting it.  If it's neutral pick brown.  

Then darken it, to paint shadows, and - here's the trick - make it warmer.  Add reddish-orange to it, just a bit.  
And of course do the opposite for the lighter parts - reduce saturation of the brown, or if it's already grey add a tiny touch of cyan (sky-blue).   That's it.  :)

Flat colour, warmer shadows, I'll see if I can nut that one out (if I remember after finishing the one I'm working on now x_x).  Thanks! :D
