Otto on the Roof for Amazon

Been working on this for a couple weeks...I decided this afternoon that I wouldn't stop until I finished this picture. Am I ever going to be a zombie at work tomorrow.

Since was #500 to my gallery, she gets a picture. Since she saw "Fiddler on the Roof" and got to meet Mr. Molina, I figured this was appropriate. OMG Double Meaning in what Otto is saying! (Can I get more nauseatingly cutesy? No, I didn't think so).

Self crit self crit! This style was hard for me, the style basically being "paint in photoshop with no black lines at all, just work from blocks of color". The actuators, while not exactly like those in the movie, are close enough and I like 'em, especially the glowy bits. I finally decided to make the distinction between the upper pair and the lower pair - they are quite different! The background is a photo I took of a sunset near Moss Landing (I forgive you if you have no idea where that is) but I added in some houses there. I think the color balance worked out okay, and I'm alright with the hair.
Don't even look at that violin or how she's holding it. I didn't use a reference and it shows. At least I realized at the last minute that her left hand is backwards. I also just realized that she's playing the violin left-handed (as I did/would) which probably isn't accurate, but my brain is wired to draw that way. And I gave up with shading and used the dodge and burn tools (a horrible horrible sin) to help me out.

I hope Amazon likes this. Show me that you're visitor #1000 and I'll stay up half the night drawing you something pretty too.
