Eddis

Okay, so here's (generally) how I picture Eddis. It's still a work in progress (haven't looked up any actual clothing descriptions or color preferences), but since Eddis's appearance has been the subject of discussion, I thought I would contribute what I have so far.



and here's a closer view of her face:



Edit: made some adjustments to make Eddis look younger.

Ooh, is this digital art? It looks good! What program are you using?
Also, her bear shoulders are perfect. And I can definitely see a mouth like that suddenly breaking out in to a smile that changes her whole face...

Thanks!

I use Adobe Illustrator. It's fairly standard graphic design/illustration software.

I approve!

I like the close up of her face! It's very close to how I imagine her as well.

Hi, Elle!

Off topic, but I'm just wondering -- did you get your book yet? (Mods, you can castigate me if I shouldn't write this here....)

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

Yes!! I (was about to drop you an e-mail) but got it today and it totally made my day! I can't wait to read it!! Once again, thanks for doing the contest!! :-)

Awesome! This is almost exactly perfect (imo). The close up is lovely, too -- except (imo) she looks a bit too old. She's supposed to be "very young" (well, then again, that's according to the Magus, and what does he know?).

I'd also like to know what program you're using -- you're most amazingly expert!

This is wonderful!! I second Deirdre, I think she looks a teeny bit too old (I think it's in the eyes) but she looks great! But yes, everything else is spot on. Thank you for posting this. ♥

That's beautiful! It's really perfect. That's how I've been picturing Eddis without knowing it. I've tried to draw her myself, but I haven't been able to actually capture what I'm seeing in my head ... which is your lovely drawing, but with darker hair, basically.
I like the shoulders, too. And the messy hair. She looks so ... understanding.
