Space Girl

Here's another space girl from the Trinquette challenge.

Here's the final:





The original sketch.  I was pretty happy with this.



The colors changed the flow quite a bit.

This was a candidate final:



Here's a closeup of her face.

As I stared at this one of the things I realized was that I didn't have enough contrast in my color values.  So I took another pass at darkening the skin.  I also tried a different background color:

The background color wasn't quite doing it for me though.  It brought out her skin tones nicely, but it also seemed to compete with it.  So for the final I went back to the blue.
