OK, back to the hot chicks for a bit. ;) I wanted to do something relating to the new prestige classes, so here is a Shifter. I made her a fairly high level caster, as she has the ability to change to Dire Tiger form. This is part photomanip, part paint. I started with a photo here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/5725979/ but pretty much changed everything about it except for the general features. Tiger fur added from stock photos, background a picture of the rug in my dining room. ;) The rest is PSP8. I will have a version also without the tiger stripes, if the Vault would like. Comments welcome!
This is a really good one. the idea is great. Her eyes, her skin and everything is just really nice.

Spectacular! Also would be cute for a kitty-person...

Thanks for the comments so far. Normally I wouldn't reply this early, but I wanted to remark on something that Ananna said in the voting comments. She (or he) felt that because this picture used some photos it wasn't as compelling (artistically) as if it had been painted, perhaps feeling that using photos makes it easy. If you go to the link for the original photo, I pretty much just used the face and form as a guideline. Since the lighting in the original was flash photography (which is the most horrible thing you can do to capture a portrait) I had to repaint the face from scratch. The choice of lighting, coloring, costume, integration of background elements, hairstyle is entirely hand painted. I suppose I'm getting a bit feisty about the whole thing, but I strongly disagree that it takes any less skill to paint a picture like this as opposed to any other sort. Ok. I'll get off my soapbox now... ;)
