[image: the lemmy logo, but with elfilin's eyes, cheek blushes, ear notch, and general colouration. still retains the original whiskers, ears (size-wise), and nose.]
here's the more polished version of elfilem that i promised! it was pretty fun to work on, and i'm quite proud of the final result. instead of just roughly eyeballing everything, i leveraged the power of code (i.e. wrote an svg file by hand) and used Precise Numbers™ to dictate the position and size of things.
seems like lemmy doesn't support uploading svg files, so instead i uploaded a png version. not sure if and how i'll share the original svg -- would certainly love to! i commented the code specifically so that others could get a better understanding of what i did to draw each thing.
edit: never mind, just pasted the svg source code into a comment below
list of notable changes from the original elfilem:
- eyes are now significantly higher up than they were originally
- cheek blushes are now larger, fully visible circles
- inner orange part of ears now extends fully downward to more accurately match elfilin's appearance
- eyes now have a dark blue outline
- various colours have been changed
created with the help of the following:
- notepad++
- this tutorial, along with google and stack overflow
- the same lemmy logo from wikipedia that i used last time -- only, instead of editing the file in an image editor, i simply used it as a reference this time around.
- wikirby and its elfilin pictures, particularly the merry magoland mask
this is the most effort i've put into a drawing in a long time. but i think the result is worth it! :)
edit: the white outline was lost in the background the first time i uploaded this. after some shenanigans on my end, here's a version that includes the white outline as it's supposed to!... unless you're on kbin apparently edit 2: made the new image properly spaced instead of "cramped" (cropped to have no extra space)
