WIP Whatever

I got tagged by @fourraccoonsinacoat for some WIP posting, so here you go! (Xiz0r, I'll do yours later since i have writing and art to show off!)

I've been keeping this one under wraps most places since it's part of an art trade with someone, but she doesn't have/use tumblr so I can post it here!

the character is a djala, a group of bald, black-and-white-spotted humanoids in the ttrpg Exalted, and I'm having fun using the spots as a way to help define the shape of the body. I was so glad found this pose, it fits Tsangun here perfectly and was a good challenge for me (even if I still gotta work on those hands and feet some more... )

So far I've designed three Djala for the new Exalted and I love them.

5 (Five Corners' Menagerie) is my PC. She's a troublemaker who likes to climb, mimic people, and get into fights. She's also an inspiring little Zenith and is really tiny.

2 (Two Trees Twisted) is an older den mother sort of Djala. She's distinguished and wrinkled. She's very polite and proper and speaks with a sense of earned authority. She loves Five like a daughter, and is probably the only one who can reliably tell the girl what to do.

And then there's 1.

1 (One Small Thing) is tiny and bright and bubbly. She's almost always smiling and tries to spread her inner joy to others. She sings songs and sees the good in everyone.

1 & 5 are small enough to be considered Minikin; though, given her attitude most just assume 1 is just a child (she is, but it's still not a fantastic assumption). 2 has her hands full keeping them out of trouble.
