This is Willow, my entry for the Limited Palette Skin Contest.

Some background. Willow may look human, but she really isn't. She's more... slime-ish. That would explain the purple lines extending from her cheek and hands. Willow lives in a swamp (no Shrek intended), where it's hot and humid enough for her to survive. She spends her time in the shadows, sketching pictures of trees and whatnot. However, she's had to scrap every picture she had drawn because the goo on her hands would always ruin the picture. Overall, Willow is bashful, kind, and somewhat pessimistic.

And yes, those are holes in her dress. Willow uses those as air pockets for the rest of her body to breathe the swampy air through.

I know, I could do better on the shading. I used mostly Photoshop CS3's Dodge and Burn tools to shade Willow, which may be why you wouldn't see that her eyelashes and the stripe on her dress are supposed to be the 572F4E color.

Hope you enjoy! =D I kind of had to rush this because I had only discovered this contest on Thursday or Friday, meer days before the deadline.
