Character 'speedpaint' - Lienne

I want to shape the fantasy story and world that is stuck in my head a bit better, so other people might enjoy it as well. So lets start with some descriptions of important characters  This one took me 3 hours. I am still not getting any faster... I am not good at speedpaints.

I like her face so much, it shows exactly the right emotion. What I do not like is my decision to draw my OC's to scale; the bigger the character, the larger it ends up in the drawing. This one is the smallest (half a meter difference with my tallest OC, Orion - holy crap :S) so there is a lot of 'background' in this pic... I don't like it, maybe I'll change that one day.

-------------------


Name: Lienne Esselo. The 'ie' in Lienne is pronounced the same as in Tolkien, so you get 'lien-nuh', not 'li-en-nuh'. Essen means ash and lo(o) is an old word for forest in Dutch. Her name therefore means ash tree forest.

Other names: Lien or Lientje (and even those are hardly used). She doesn't have tons of nicknames, unlike my other characters. Selanji calls he sweetie though, but Sel calls everyone sweetie so that doesn't count.

Age: 16, but looks younger.

length: 1.52 m

birthplace: A town of which I've forgotten the name of close to Esselo forest.

race: Mostly human. 

known languages: Common. 

Description: She is small and childish for her age. She has dark blond hair, just long enough to put in a ponytail. she does not do that often though; she prefers to hide her face behind her hair. She has large, green-brown eyes.

Profession: musician.

Religion: Selanji converted her to the  Sandgods, a group of gods very popular in the South. She is not as fanatic as Selanji though.

Personality: Shy, naive, and can use some self-confidence. This however changes drastically when she makes music, then she is the most confident person in the world. She knows how to play various types of instruments and can sing as well - she has a real talent for it. She is also the kindest of my characters. She cares a lot about people, and not just about her friends. it doesn't matter for her if she knows someone or not; she will help him/her if she can. She really is too good for my world...
