Description

I have a crappy photo editing program for now, so this looks rather shitty. Oh well.

I'M UPLOADING ART AGAIN!

Well, I've improved a bit since I was gone. This is Absinthe, if you haven't figured it out yet. I gave her a bit of a make over. I've been figuring out a few things about the wardrobe of my MC for the story.

For most of the story, Aby's stuck in an area that pretty hostile to Drauikks, since it's either ruled by, or has been ruled by, the Aelver, who absolutely hate the Drauikks, and vice versa. So, that's one precaution. Also, she is traveling with Kaj, and since he's an Aelver, it would be veeeery odd for them to be together. And not killing each other (though they do that sometimes too). So, Aby's disguised as a Sapi, that is, a human, though in this pic she's more casual because you can see her tats (Drauikks use tattoos to show status and history and such), and her ears. In human form, Drauikk retain theier triangular shaped ears, so that's one of the prime ways to identify them.

Anyways, her clothing style is mostly Sapi-esque, though she does have some Drauikk touches that she couldn't help. Like her disk earrings.

Also, that surf-board like thing on her back is another addition, it's a wind glider. I figured Aby needed some sort of vehicle to get around, and a glider seemed rather natural since she noramally is a dragon. So she'd be a natural at it. It's in it's compact form right now, it opens up to be much bigger.

And for the birds, I've decided that fluffy white birds are a fitting animal for Aby, so they're probably going to be showing up around her a lot in future pics.

Absinthe, Drauikks, Aelver, and other such things (c) me

i'd die happy to ink this piece @3@

love the detail and the stylization! i can't say i completely agree with mythchan, i don't like the 'women are dainty' bs i always hear. the curves of the legs and their width had a lot of motion, balance the wide hips and ground her nicely. the only thing i would modify would be to push the curved lines against straight ones to give it even more motion (i don't know how to say that right XD my vocabulary has left me)

thigh seems to be coming from the middle of her pelvic region instead of coming from the outside of her hip, which also lends itself to my suggestion about allowing her leg to follow the same arc from heel to hipjoint.
i think she misread a line - the one on her right where the skirt covers a sliver of her thigh - cause the legs are coming out of her pelvis just fine if you read that the skirt is covering her thigh, which it is. ^^
