Artist's Comments

Full view or I will cry all over your face. And then you will have syphillis. =/

The first OC I ever had, back when I was like 12 and RPing on Neopets forums. I haven't RPed her in years, but this character is much of the reason I took an interest in art. I struggled with getting her expression right for a long time, but I think I finally managed to get the look I wanted.

First piece for my new portfolio, and my first piece since returning from conceptart.org's Reverie workshop, which was nothing short of a life-changing event when it comes to my mentality about art. If you ever get the chance to go to one of their workshops, do it. Its an amazing experience.

I really like the design of the shoulder plate, and with the weathered look its like its telling a story ^^
