Dance of the Nightingale

Moar. Lúthien dancing. I’ve decided that she ought to look like Lisa Pawelke (German singer and musician, she used to sing for the folk band Faun). Why haven’t I thought of that before?

Same thing as with the previous picture: sepia and (in this case) purple ink and white acrylics over a printed pencil sketch. I quite like the outcome, but it makes my heart bleed that so much of the initial sketch is lost. The idea was to preserve it and only give it some touch ups (I didn’t even want it to be shaded), which obviously didn’t work.
