Drawing session and Ace in Action concept

I was experimenting with color in this morning's drawing session, but I could never get the skin tones to work quite right. I feel okay about the picture anyway, but just in case it's not enough I'll include some conceptual development from Chicken Little: Ace in Action. This was the original design for Abby's fighter, before they changed it to a hovercraft. I wanted her ship to mix the trendy feminine Volkswagon Beetle-esque look with the military purpose of her fighter.

The ship is great! Very elegant and retro but not too old fashioned.

I think the skin tones look nice, but then again every monitor is different, and this one especially bugs me.

The ship is awesome. You guys did a lot of beautiful work on that game.

Impressive technique. The painting of the girl feels like pastels.
