I'll have to come up with a better pose and scene next time.
Made in GIMP, Most of the coloring and rendering was done by hand via the brush tools. And touched up with the brush, erase, and smudge tools. Pathway tool for the sword. As well as me finally actually using overlay layer properly for a change to correct the values for the background and Xaniras herself.
Total layers: 28 in use out of 41
