Female Healer of the Forest, Retro Pop style π!- After the Battle she is an Artistic Dancer.
That thought has arisen in me, and I have been inspired by that premise to create the Forest Healer in the "Pasatiempo" version. And she is sweet and tender, I imagined her then as an amateur dancer.
Many times we develop two sides, perhaps more. One where our life focuses on the "official", like our work and the general things of adult life. And another version that builds our soul from the things we like to do. It's like evoking our adulthood, the childhood we carry inside. It really is quite a beautiful thing, to respond to the calls of genuine happiness. But in the case of our Forest Healer, she takes a bath and removes her battle clothes to opt for something comfortable and light. She immerses herself in improvised artistic dance, performing jumps and movements that relax her muscles and her thoughts.
For the most natural version of the Forest Healer I have chosen to create light and comfortable clothing for her. A cotton sweatshirt is always a good option, plus short shorts give her the freedom she needs at the dance. While she dances, she feels alone with the world and becomes connected by touching the ground that sustains her. I have maintained characteristics of the original character in my recreation, such as the Clover on the clothing, the tiara and the color palette. However, I have opted for straighter and less wavy hair, which is left to the movement of the wind.
Very pretty---No?
Ohh yeah! π
She is a cute girl, in the Retro Art style. I really liked this one, the details in shadows and lines are strong or marked, providing an original and striking style to the art in general.
Let's see the process of creating this Fan Art of the Forest Healer:
To carry out this style, I have done the greatest detail in the sketch phase. There I have given rise to all the general lines and features of clothing and skin. It is incredible how this step of detail in lines gives a different look in general to the character. For this, I used a regular pencil brush, but with a fine tip detail at the end of the line. I have alternated the thickness in different parts of the drawing, to accentuate some details more than others.
Finished the sketch, I have added the colors. To do this, I have used the original Holozing art as a reference, plus I have added some darker versions of the original color to denote certain parts or add shadows. For coloring, in some parts I have painted traditionally and in others using the paint can.
For the background, I have used a gradient. Linear lights with a soft light layer and playing with opacity. I have also added leaf silhouette material patterns, downloadable from Medibang.
Here the final result:
