Splinterlands Art Contest - Week 282 - Lux Vega

Good day, folks. Following last week's themed Splinterlands Art Contest, the contest has gone to its regular form and we have a non-themed one. So I went back to check on the good ol' index of Splinterlands card to choose one from. Lux Vega was the one that caught my eye and I just realized that I'd never done a fanart for her, so here we are now.

The Process

Background and Eye

For the background, I took inspiration from the original game art - the yellow fireflies - and added a dark color to the back so they're more emphasized.

I also colored her left eye back to white since it was easier to work my way up to that light blue-ish crystal-like texture than working with a darker tone and lighting my way back to the same result - just preference, I guess.

The Result

In the end, I added some flow-ish rays of magic around her (card-master and magicians in fantasy context have that most of the time) to make it seem as if she's conjuring up some sort of magic.
And that's about it for this week's entry... hope you found it fascinating and until next time, cheers~~
