Hey, after like a month I finally finished this! I wanted to make a kind of poster looking image.

I typed out ideas I wanted to incorporate into this before drawing anything and it was extremely helpful when thinking of a composition. This was one of the smoothest sketches and then I hated it when I started rendering because I really struggled with the colors, but now I like it again. What a cycle.

Anyway, all the white hair and red hair characters are related. The black hair and white hair characters with the face markings are basically the same person. And the guy in the middle guy is basically the ancestral father of them all (except the lady above him). :]

I forgot where it came from (I think when I was researching characters a few weeks ago), but I remember writing down something about "a hero standing on rocks with an eagle and sea behind," but I can't find where I wrote that down either. lol But, it made me think of Yazla, except I associate her with ravens/crows. Then that made me think of in Greek mythology where Apollo turned a white raven black for bringing him bad news, so I wanted to make it a white raven because she's basically a fallen hero character. This picture really had a journey. lol

Just wanted to draw some ladies fighting.

Kasirey (left) is the current Cardinal to the Sage of the South and Yazla was the previous Cardinal.

More Yazla and birbs.

I struggled with this sketch and I'm just hoping it'll come together when rendering.

Also, I forgot she's left handed, so I had to flip everything and then it looked worse. lol

Just some random sketches because I never do this. :]

Trying to get back to drawing again.
