Akitsu hacking (night)

That's the night version of my painting Akitsu hacking (day)
I played a little with different layers in PS to get the green light.
Maybe I'm not completely finished ... I don't know yet , I have to see what other people tell me. I'm not completel sure about some effects of the light, so I talk to someone later on, who knows more about how to get lights right.
Anyhow, it was quite fun to to the green light and took me another couple of hours, I didn't count

This is Akitsu, my Shadowrun 4.01D character. She is an elven technomancer and half Japanese. Other half is UCAS, though
On the left, she is sitting at home on her sofa while on the right you see her hacking in hot VR.
Due to SURGE (some magical mutations) her skin glows pale greenish at low light conditions. That's what you see here. And that's my reason for doing this night version

Photoshop CS 4 and Wacom Bamboo Tablett
Time: Countless hours  

References: My boyfriend took photos of me which I used as pose-references. I used the results of Google-picture search to draw Akitsus' avatar (Akitsu from Sekirei on the left). The lineart of the lamp and the two sprites was drawn on paper, scanned and coloured completely in PS.
I used free fonts for the icons in VR: www.fontsquirrel.com
I used Google-translate to get the Japanese words. They are supposed to mean (according to Google-translate and I hope that it's not too bad gibberish): "alert" in the circle, "log on" in the top left hand window, "technomancer" in the bottom left hand window and "access denied" in the two windows on the right.
And now I just realized, that I made a mistake ... The words must be mirrored because Akitsu is looking at them. Now they are right for the person looking at the painting. Anyhow, I'm not changing this little detail. I can't read any Japanese so I don't mind  

Enjoy
