So, it's apparently been a year since I drew Eeksha (top) and Elayaraj's (bottom) portraits! I'm not going to post the first portraits because they're not bad, but they're meh in comparison to these haha! I thought I'd use this opportunity to talk about these two again (:

These two are the main characters in the book I'm writing. The book is heavily in the planning / development phase, so I have no idea when it would possibly be published (it doesn't even have a title bc idk what to title it ;v;). That aside my story is based in a Southeast Asian fantasy setting with Anitu as the gods and humans (named kawatao) walk amongst other fantastical creatures / beings.

Eeksha is the Anitu of Chaos, out for revenge against the other Anitu for sealing them away thousands of years ago. Don't let their soft face fool you ;v;

Elayaraj is a Kinnara Ba'walonan (the term I created for shamans/Babaylan in the Philippines). The snake around his neck is Charoenratsumi (Charoen or Charumi for short) and she's his spirit guide.
