Kaz sent me some sketches and I finally got hold of em yesterday. (They’ve been here a while but nobody thought to TELL me that!) Anyway, I decided to play with this one…

Usually I just clean up the lines, but this time I decided to sort of trace over them instead.

I came up with this:

I know the body’s a bit wonky. But this one is just for fun. I wasn’t going to spend too much time on it. Colors shading and highlighting…

I know it’s not awesome. But sometimes, you know, I really don’t care. But what to do for a background? I started thinking about what might cause her to be frowning like that.  And looking up.. oh… OH!  I got it!

You can take that as you will. I imagine she’s about to be instructed to go to the Mage’s Guild and free Katia from the vile clutches of Sigrid – BEFORE Weedum-Ja goes on to become the Hero of Kvatch! 

‘What?’ you say? How can an NPC, obviously present after the destruction of Kvatch actually be the HERO? That’s the magic of fantasy, my friend!
