Nova - The Lights

Sooooo, this is my original character Julia "Nova" Edwards, who goes by "Nova". She's a "professional" Australian Echo Boarder in my future webcomic "Borealis". I keep redrawing her and changing things around. I want to get a SOLID art style down before I start creating a comic by myself. I created this character 3-4 years ago in World Issues class in high school and have played with her style since. Her physical features are the only things left unchanged.

I hope you like the new style. I grew a lot from this piece and learned a few things, as well as experimented with coloured shadows. Hope you enjoy~

Why did I do this?
BECAUSE I WANTED TO TRY OUT PHOTOSHOP CS6, BRO.
