Description
Megara was the second character I created (Malla was the first!). The short version is that she's a thief in an alternative medieval universe. I've spent several years on this story and have expanded the world Megara and the others inhabit, but I've never really created a definite image of this young lady in my head.
I spent about two weeks on this working on and off. I've been playing around with slowly building up colors on a black background ("The Bird" was done in the same style).
I put a LOT of effort into the skin mainly, but I wanted this to be my best portrait yet. I know she's a bit too pretty for a typical rogue character, but that's actually a semi-important aspect of her character. However, her cheeks are permanently chapped and red from long nights scrambling up walls and hiding on rooftops, and her hair is a messy strand of tangles. I wanted her eyes to convey a sense of being tired without over-doing dark circles or adding makeup that was out of character.
Okay, I'll stop rambling now. ^_^ Enjoy.
