Hi everyone! My name is Abrahma Tansini, I am graphic designer and digital artist.
Today I would like to share my last digital artwork step by step done using Adobe Photoshop. This time I changed the way as I face an illustration, generally I made a sketch to have a reference for the rendering process and digital color (like this example below)

but this time I wanted to made a digital illustrator in a different way.

1- The first step was applied a background dark color and contrast to with a new color as are going to be the skin color. I used a brush in Photoshop that has a texture like a traditional painting.

2- The second step was select 2 more tones for skin: one orange tone for the middle tone skin and another dark tone for the shadows.

3- I started here to redefine in rush way some part of character's face.

4- In this step I started to blend the colors on the skin. I Know, its look horrible but to next steps I am going to improve it.

5- I worked more in the blend colors of skin reached a better graduation of shadows and light.

6- In this step I added more detail on face and also added a dark background as a contrast for the character's face silhouette. Also I worked on hair.

7- It is almost done. But I decided to add a little detail that change the character. I mean the elongated ears. In that way she is an elf.

I really like how it is turned out, I used another way to make digital drawing and I really like the process. I am going to keep experiment this method: use some colour stains and create step by step the shapes of characters without initial sketch.
