Artist's Comments

Susan Sto Helit from Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. This is how I imagine her as she is in Hogfather - a governess who just also happens to be the granddaughter of Death.

I painted this in excitement from getting my first graphics tablet and I'm ecstatic with the result! Please full view there is so much detail here!
Original sketch here: [link]

Neither could I which is why I used a helpful tutorial which I found by typing into google "how to draw horses" lol!

It's not cheating! Its just using tools. Besides it was only for the line drawing, I did all the colours and shading myself. so nurh! *pokes tongue out* lol!

That is stunning! You're as skilled with a tablet as you are with a brush :) You should definitely do more digital work, its gorgeous.
:icondesiderata848:
Thankyou! I can't remember whether I told you or not but you were instrumental in it being created! I saw your tutorial on digital painting and it gave me the final push to buy myself a graphics tablet and was also helpful in me quickly learning how to make it most useful for pen pressure and stuff :) so thankyou!

brilliant.
the colouring is so amazing.
and you're one of the only people I've found to remember all the details like the scars on her face.

This really is lovely! I like the detail of the flippers of the Great Turtle :D. And the white scars on Susan's cheek, too.

She looks a little too hard, though. And she certainly looks older than sixteen (I believe that's how old she was in Soul Music ... ?)

Otherwise, fabulous job :D.

I fear Ganondorf ... but I fear his fangirls far more!
