Description Okay, this probably shouldn't have taken me 3.5 days to draw...I blame AIM chats, exercise, and fail internet!!

This is my APH Philippines OC:
Name: Maria Cristina Gabriella de la Cruz [aka Tina]
Age: 19
Height: 151.8 cm (4'11.8")
Hair color: black/really dark brown
Eye color: black

The older of the two Filipino siblings, Tina is more responsible and polite. She's shy and formal with new people, but once you get to know her she's pretty crazy. She learns all the rules and is a fast-learner, but likes to do things her own way. She's naturally maternal, is open-minded, and likes to give new things a chance. She's the type to work diligently and suffer silently, but complains a lot once she's alone or with someone she knows well. Even though she's small, she's a natural fighter and is good at guerrilla warfare. She's very resourceful and is good with her hands. Tina tends to give herself too much to do and then stress over perfecting it. She doesn't like to throw things away or give up since she's really stubborn. Tina also plays the piano and learns a lot of songs by ear.

She's a bit of a tsundere...


The bottom left is chibi!Tina during the Philippines' early years of civilization.
The bigger left picture is Tina during Spanish occupation [I probably shouldn't have drawn her looking so happy, right?]
The middle drawing is during WWII [it's an Filipino infantry unit uniform]. The reference picture was in grayscale, so I used my awesome guessing skills for the colors. (btw, Tina cut her hair for war)
The upper right is a more current Tina.
And the bottom right is a preteen(?) Tina wearing Igorot attire before Spanish colonization....but soon..?

The lock of hair that falls on her face is Palawan, and the sampaguita flower in her hair is Manila [which is why she doesn't have it as a child, preteen, and during WWII...(she probably shouldn't have it during Spanish occupation either...but O_o)]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ugh, my scanner has failed me. It decided to scan the paper as two separate drawings, so I had to put it together...and that's why the colors are kinda weird now...=_____=

pencil, pen, then colored pencils on printer paper
