moodboard: Rebel of the Sands

“ Once there was a boy from the sea who fell in love with a girl from the desert.” 

[magicalbooksandthings-deactivat]

I don’t think enough people draw Amani to be honest. I’m not sure why though because the light blue eyes on dark skin are stunning. She was super fun but sooo time consuming because I sketched like 3 different versions to get the right feel. This is the first project I’ve done primarily in marker (the face is color pencil though). I used a combo of the new Ohuhu markers and copics and really enjoyed the result.

Does it look her or eh?
