Jill Valentine Rests Her Feet -- Patreon Exclusive June 2020 (Patreon)

Jill Valentine takes a much-needed break from running around the desolated streets of Raccoon City, avoiding certain death. Hopefully this is a Save Room she's found, lest the Nemesis comes slamming through the door (or wall).

Thank you so much for your patience, everyone! Here is Jill Valentine as this month's Patreon Exclusive, as seen in the (beautiful) Resident Evil 3 Remake.
This piece was started rather early, as soon as the poll was decided, because I really wanted to take my time on this one. I'm really trying to improve my painting skills, and not rely on using heavy lineart to convey all the subtle details. The costume is relatively-simple overall, so I wanted to add a lot of texture, wear, and dirt, to make it seem believable, not flat.
As is usually the case with backgrounds, I decided to add it once I finished the figure; I always keep the option open to doing just a plain white background (especially if I am running low on time), but I adore this character too much, so I had to give this piece a bit more to chew on.
Now, I only did the dirty and sock variants for this one -- no pantyhose this time. I completely reworked how I paint socks, which meant I had sucked up a lot of time that would usually be devoted to the pantyhose, PLUS I was doing the background... So, if you really prefer the pantyhose variant, sorry! From what I remember, the pantyhose variants were at the bottom of the preference poll a few months back, so hopefully not too many people are upset by this change. I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills, while becoming faster and more efficient, so if foregoing the pantyhose variants for now allows me to, say, invest in backgrounds for the pieces, I might do that -- I'll just monitor everyone's feedback to that change. c:

What do you all think? I really loved doing this piece, and I want to keep conveying my thanks to everyone who supports me through Patreon -- no matter how long you plan on staying!

Now let's get out there and give them some S.T.A.R.S.
