Was just randomly sketching after knocking out a bunch of Birthday requests that piled up on me. and really liked how this pose was coming along.

The amazing Wereworld helped me out with a quick draw over that helped me to better zero in on how to portray the anatomy.

The final version is a mixture of the 2.

Concept is that she was a soldier or guard of some sort who had been infected, and attempted to destroy herself before she could become a threat to her loved ones.

Not realizing that major self inflicted wounds causes the body to go into an immediate out of cycle shift, locking out her human mind to protect itself.

Causing a sort of wild berserker mode. Whats worse is with the sword embedded into her body she wont be able to shift back into human form. Becoming a true monster.

Greetings everyone!

Sorry for the long stretch without an update,!
Have been rather short on energy and didn't want to keep flooding the feed with only slightly more complete iterations of the previously posted image.

This is going to be my Halloween project for this year. will be getting it all set up t sell as shirts. the torn clothing is still up for debate if peeps would like a version with slightly more clothing. :p

I also want to try and cut this image apart to try and give it some animation via the Spine Esoteric program. I want to try and see how close I can accomplish some ambient animations similar to what they used in Dragons Crown. Albeit with a very different style.

I went ahead and included a couple of tough sketches I'd done since posting the last completed pic for those who hadn't seen them yet. ^_  ^

I feel my followings growth has grown rather stagnant due to my having to withhold my completed Novella pages. Do  you think that I should start posting those to other social galleries? I don't want those of you who've been supporting me financially to feel that you've somehow been swindled or something. But I need to start posting more to widen my net.

Wont be enough to just be able to buy groceries in the future. I have so many projects I want to accomplish but will need the support of other creators to do so. Tell me what you think though, especially if your a patron! I want to ensure you are getting the value you feel is satisfying for the level of support you've gifted me with over these years.

Definitely feel though that I need to start putting out more stand alone art that tells its own small story. As my following is if anything declining since I've been focusing on my Novella.

Hoping I can get more energized before my birthday this 15th!?  Don't forget I stream nearly every night if I'm awake enough to. ^_  ^

I crave your feed back! feel free to point out anything you feel is off with the pic. So I can better improve it. ^_ ^

Oh yeah is this even something you'd want to wear? or would a different medium be to your liking?
