my character... such an asshole drawn by luua

[Mahri]

Okay it is long past time I contribute something here.

This is S'anzu Mahri. Or, if you want to be formal: Anzu of the Zu Tribe, daughter of Mahri Nunh, explorer, cartographer, reaver, scholar, and Maelstrom elite 'til Sea Swallows All.

And friends.



Self-indulgent ramblings:

- We also got Eos, who is very assertive.
- Then there's Diomedes the chocobo. Diomedes' spirit animal is of course the noble unicorn, so he chooses to honor it by wearing a sword on his head.
- The lovely lady on the left is Voldrune, retainer/past-alt.
- The young man with the fishing pole is S'atnam Tia, my other retainer, who's also S'anzu's son.
- The ultra-sketchy back shot up there kinda is of S'anzu's awesome zu+anchor+compass+Llymlaen icon tattoo which I need to draw a detailed version of (note shoulder tattoo of bomb on bottom left)
- On the bottom left my favorite thing is how at a quick glance the way she's holding her axe looks like it could be a rock guitar.
- I have strong opinions concerning how Miqo'te facial musculature should work (that is, like a cat, which the game does not properly reflect) and the expressions here should somewhat get the idea across.
- Yes, she's blowing a puff of smoke that looks like a moogle, what of it

These are awesome! Really loving the bottom left, the details are fantastic and that moogle smoke is a great addition! Also really liking your profile shots, especially the yelling/roaring one, I've been having a difficult time drawing my miqo'te's face from the side because of the nose I chose for her, and I think we have the same one, so its nice to really see the "solution" in action!

Start drawing. It doesn't matter if you're bad! Just start drawing and KEEP DRAWING and if you pay attention to your technique compared to what you're trying to represent, you will get good. It takes a while to really get a grasp but this really, really is true.

Heyyy! Your style looks very familiar, for some reason -- and it's really, really pretty. Do you have a DA account or anything along those lines?
