The picture comes from the cover of The Ironwood Tree, the fourth book in The Spiderwick Chronicles. The illustrations are by Tony DiTerlizzi. Mallory Grace has been dressed up as a sleeping beauty by a bunch of dwarves, hence the outfit.
The original picture is in color, and stops at her waist, so that part's the best. The rest I'm not as happy with, but I inferred it using other illustrations throughout the book.
Meh, she's kind of crooked, but ignore that.
This isn't in a style I tend to do, so that was a challenge. I also had to learn to draw and texture using shading, not lines. While I still can't visualize that in my own mind and put it on paper, I copied it much better than I thought I would! So I'm very happy about that
Lovely, Lovely detail on the hands and arms. Did you like the series? I loved them.
That dress would be nice to make, Difficult, but nice.
Anyway, I like the work, You should draw the green eyed elf
