I've been recommended to watch Evangelion for many years now and never seemed to get to it until very recently. I then soon found myself rather inspired to create some fan art =)

I also recently watched a few minutes of a video from Jason Chan (which I got from a friend) on a 6 hour sketch he did in Painter. This made me take on a new quicker approach in Photoshop without line art and without so many layers. All this portrait is, is me just painting over the rough sketch I did. This makes the whole process more free from any limitations the lines may have, which makes it just easier to work with. So, this is more of a painting than anything else.

Anyway, hope you guys enjoy what I've done with her and how I've redesigned her =)

• Painted in Photoshop CS3 with a Wacom Intuos 3.

Why is this suddenly so popular? It's on the 2nd page (25-48) of the "What's Hot" browsing mode.

Rei never looked so good as on this one. Natural, mysterious, charming... You rendered the creator Yoshiyuki Sadamoto a wonderful hommage in my view.

Although canon Rei dislikes the color red, I LOVE this portrait. The red highlights look like racing stripes- appropriate for a giant robot pilot.
