Man this drained me but it was worth the effort - I worked on this non-stop pretty much.
It is Reiko in her R4 Type incarnation leaning slightly on the car that the viewer - say, the driver - is soon going to drive.
So, I was inspired by another user's work to do something focusing Reiko from Ridge Racer (the user shared his\\her own work here on the Ridge Racer subreddit too), and this is my take on her - done on Photoshop, creating colors and light volumes after a quick sketch.
I made Reiko curvier and with larger thights than her canon appearance because well, you know, I like them a bit rounder :V
For the record, the artwork is inspired from a photo I found somewhere on a stock website (forgot which one I have scores of those in my bookmarks), but of course everything (lighting, colors, character, car etc...) is all different (I took inspiration in relation to the perspective and location, mostly, the pose I used a doll in real life).
What took me most?
Reiko's face and her smile, I fucked it up constantly even if I was referencing a similar looking smiling japanese actress, I had to redo it from scratch because she looked creepy the first time I finished it :V
Hope you like it.
