From horrible sketch to beautiful drawing. Original digital Art.

After my hard drive died I did not have the energy to do anything else; however I was able to recover myself and I made this drawing of this void elf. 😏

Hello again friends! Today I want to relate you the story and the process for this piece I made.

I had projects that I was working but everything is lost and although it has been passed for than a month since the hard drive thing, still hurt me having lost all my things. ☹️

But today, I want to relate you my experience behind this piece I put all my effort, returning again to my original characters zone.


This piece follows the same process I used in my Death Knight piece; I started with a black and white piece and then I give colors.

I have drew this character some time ago, if you check my blog and watch my post you will not do it so I’ll let it here anyway the last drawing I made before my “sudden disappear” was this.


Lyra is a character I have been developing for some time, as you may notice this is a character from World of Warcraft game; she is a void elf, or as I like to call them, an Emo elf.

I did this piece mostly because I lost the High res version of another two pieces in my last hard drive, I wanted to print them and hanging it in my wall but now I can’t.


This is Cecil, another of my Emo elves.



As I said before, Lyra ‘s drawing begins with this sketch that I made some time ago; when I made it, I just use it as an excuse for use my markers and to be honest it looks very crappy.

For the process in digital I wanted to make this piece in colors directly, but I got an anxiety attack and I couldn’t do it, so I ended up doing it in grayscale.
This is the result of the grayscale.


After this, I proceeded in the same of my other piece, overlapping layers of colors until I obtain a pleasant result. This piece was particularly harder so I help myself with some textures and mode layer of colors.

This is the final result after the coloring process.



For the sake to save photos and repeat unnecessary thing of all the process, here is Let a compressed Gif that is more explanatory and enjoyable to watch.

This time I’ll not add some lore stuffs about my character because I had nothing.



What do you think of my piece? I felt like despite all the struggles it came out very well after all.
This is everything I have to say for now, if you had liked my pieces please hit the Upvote button very hard, that will help me very much! Maybe someday with my incomes I could replace my hard drive!
