Now we’re getting somewhere. I’ve worked on Emma’s face, hair and hands which you can see in the top image. The middle image is a close-up of her face to that point (but by the time I shot the bottom image I had added a little more red into her ears). On the bottom, I’ve blocked in most of her …
Emma (in progress 2)

I was waiting to post her so I could launch her along with the very new Rots online shop! I’ve been working hard putting the shop together—and it will officially launch tomorrow—but here’s …
