Now this IS a trace. As much as I hate to admit it, for the first time in a long time, I traced the character, although, you gotta see it wasn't a line for line type of deal.
As you can see, I didn't have a WHOLE lot to work with. A very pixellated picture is the only reference I have in terms of color and for a vague outline. The gray outlined human shape though was made by me, to try and get the proportions right. I can pretty much draw it on paper now, although usually I'll get something wrong (legs too short, torso too thin). So its not a compelete trace, but its enough to have my sister rag on me. :P Either way, this wasn't really about drawing an actual person (like you might consider my other military chick to be) but more on the coloring. I'm trying to get the shading on the skin, hair, and clothing, as good as possible. With some help from some Deviantart tutorials I found, hopefully I can become a little better at it ;)
