Kaelyn - Arkanian Offshoot Jedi

There's a wonderful, detailed description of this character in the request HERE - actually, she reminds me a lot of Jarael, another part-Arkanian woman in the Knights of the Old Republic era, I believe. There's some fantastic pictures of her online...

Anyway, here is my sketch for Kaelyn. Unfortunately I ran out of paper at the bottom and couldn't fit her feet on... So this may have to be set somewhere misty!

Let me know what you think, k?

I like it, Mercy.

Cheers, man!

Okay, I REALLY pleased with myself over the background! Inordinately so...

Yes, the background is cetainly good. When you combine the whole thing together it should be awesome.

-LC :-)

Here's hoping!

Okay, here's a bit of colour. Still a bit to do, though...

I think this one's about done, now!
Let me know if you think anything needs changing or whatever...

This is looking really dang good, Mercy. :)

Boshuda

I agree it is very good work. I would rank you up there with Larry Elmore from the AD&D artwork. I know it is a Star Wars piece but it had a D&D feel to it. So kewl!

-LC :-)

Thanks guys! Yeah, she does have quite a 'Wood Elf' feel to her!
So I'm mostly waiting to hear from the requester now... I wonder where she's got to?

Okay, I've redone the background so it's a bit less simple, I think it works with the detail on the figure better...

Sorry it took me so long, been away from the computer for a while. Anyway, she's lovely. Neat style and all. Intresting y'put her with a walking stick. Still really fun. I like it!

Kaelyn

Cool! Glad you got back to me, glad you like the picture!
The walking stick just seemed to work with stance, and the background too. I know it wasn't in the original request, it kinda just turned up!
Anyway, I'll load her up to gallery, now...

Great Job Mercy! Nice touch with the Water there ^_^

Okay, so here's a new version as requested by Kaelyn, of her character in a fighting stance. The stance is modeled after ones used in Tai Chi. The sabers have a small basket hilt and will be lavender in colour.

PS - thanks Mev! Sorry I'd missed your comment previously!!

PPS - I realise her right leg looks overly foreshortened. I'm hoping that tone and lighting will clear that up some...

Here's the inked version...

Here's the background I'm gonna use.

I so wish I could do that mercy...very nice

LOve the backround. Plus I love that pose you do on that and many more characters. But... I noticed one leg is abit longer than the other :-(
Rozali

She already said that she was hoping the colored version would even it out a bit, Roz.

I have to say that I absolutely LOVE that background Mercy, very nice.

LOVE the second pic, Mercy! Awesome!

sorry xan and mercy didnt see

Wicked!
Glad you all like, now I just have to hear back from the requester...
I'll put the next one up when it's done, k?

Cheers!

no apologies needed Roz... was just letting you know :) can't wait to see this one done :)

Seriosly mercy your getteing better and better at backgrounds!

Cheers!!

Don't know where Kae has got to though...

Here's the base colour for the figure.
I'll start on the light & shadow next...

Love it mercy. Not so much a wood elf now huh?

Heh! Thanks Casca!
