Anna - Engines and Outcasts - Steampunk AU

Description

Lady Anna, the younger Baroness of Arendelle. From my RotBTFD steampunk AU story www.fanfiction.net/s/11262436/…

"Such a perfect machine, all of this. A perfect game of illusions between the families and the companies. Artificially flawless, mercilessly powerful, that would crunch anything trying to stop it. A beautiful clockwork where both of us are but the screws and bolts. And you play your part in a fashion entirely admirable. You are the outcast the clock needs to tick. The falling weight the needles need to rise. You and I, youngest heirs of our families, are the youngsters the crowd loves to despise, the useless that the social engine could not live without." - Hans to Anna

Oh god. I am done. I am so done. Two WIPs later, spent half the night tinkering with the shading, and finally I'm done. Yeah, I know, it is somewhat half-baked as far as the steampunk-ness goes, but that is because Frozen isn't too off the time period I am going for and because I love Anna's canon dress so much. I had the most perfect image of her pose in my mind, I just had to :P (And that is the best excuse not to draw feet mwahahaha). Since I always have excuses, I also have one to justify she can wear something this thick under the tropical weather (spoilers). So I don't really have that much to say about costume. Other than the fact she wears a sun-shaped cog with a snowflake on it near her heart is no coincidence. 

I figured out there is a brush that basically does freckles for me. Which is awesome. But awkward. But awesome. At least, it does freckles in a way I deem satisfactory because I hardly know what freckles even looks like in real life ;) Her face was hours of attempts to shading. I cannot use a mouse for the life of me. I cannot draw red hair either. The undersides' colouring is a rather blunt - I needed sleep/I'm lazy. I wish I could own that cape. And the goggles, too.

Anna is one of the only main characters not to have a weapon (Punz has her frying pan, even if she isn't proficient at using it). So all she's holding is a fan (inspired from this one in canon). If you know my writing, that doesn't mean she cannot win over armies, lead her men and be an all-round badass. Yay for guile heroes. I love guile heroes.

[PS: I don't know whether this should be submitted under 'traditional art' or 'digital art'. Lots of work done both off and on the computer. This was drawn with a pencil, scanned and shaded/coloured on MyPaint. So feel free to correct me/enlighten me.]

I like it lots. ^^ Pretty sure you just added some gears to her canon dress and called it good, though. Of course, I don't blame you. ;)

Kinda makes me wanna tinker around with MyPaint, since I haven't used it before. But I already have three digital art programs and I should probably work with those first. Sweating a little...
