These are old, and yet they still hang above my bed for various reasons. Number one, laziness! Number two, I do still like them. Up until probably this time last year, when I figured out how to really use my tablet and later ditch lineart, I don't reckon I could have done much better than the originals. So there they remain.
UNTIL NOW. ISH. Well, I've redone one, at least, that's a start. I was tempted to name this series after the booze that each of the nations will be holding, but then got to Tsayth, as ever, and that idea went out the window, so we're going with gemstones.
Raykin girl is made up as a star-tailed eagle, because as much as I love the yrae, can't really have a real one there in the picture with her, which I want to do with this series. Also, yrae is omfgBLUE which... doesn't quite convey the whole desert red thing as well as it could. So, invented eagle! For which I used about four separate references to draw, whee.
Yes, I cheated again on the buildings and made them in Maya first. I don't deny that this is cheating, but who's gonna stop me, huh?
The original, drawn back in November '04.

I'm so glad you're redoing this series. It really shows how far you've come.
That birdie is gorgeous and I love the tres and background. My only problem if those trees you can see the bases of, it seems a little lazy to just have them plonked tehre - then again I don't know how neatly palms connect to the ground so who knows? It seems a little "eh" to me though considering the work on the rest of the background.
Another minor point is I think her mouth is either too small or too upturned? But I really love how you do faces now. SO much character. And the neck is so deep - see I hate taht in real life but on pictures it looks so awesome.
There's a big of bumpiness in her leg but let's call it celulite :3 I looove the shape and colouring on her legs. So gorgeous and deep and such. I also love her hair. STRANDY AND AWWSOME.
Her clothes drape fabulously. omg. How did you do it? The folds and the shading and everything. It's like perfect and you smell and I hate you.
And finally.... EAGLEEEEE!
