Description This was a commissioned piece for ~jadawin12 , who asked for a portrait of the character Yeesha (from the later games in the "Myst" series of computer games), as she would appear if she'd spent a little time healing after the events of Uru.

Just a word to the wise, kids: tattoos on the face may SEEM like a good idea at the time, buuuuut...

I really hope you like how she turned out, ~jadawin12 !

I loved this. The anatomy looks totally amazing (I just didn't like so much the lips, but just that). The hair is cool and her eyes have a 'real style'. Amazing

I know, you really did a great job with your design choices on her. I think I'm going to have to do some other commissions before your second one (I kind of jumped the gun on this one actually...), but it WILL come!

Oh, WOW!

I might actually take inspiration from this... I'm doing a Yeesha cosplay, and I'm trying to decide how she would look in "The missing years," because you never see her as a teenager. XP

Especially for that necklace. I like it~

This is ~jadawin12 's design for her, so you should perhaps run it by him first. That necklace is actually the amulet from Myst IV as a choker.

Oh, I meant not that I'm doing an exact copy. But I was trying to figure out how she would look in between, and.... nevermind. I just got a good idea, and it doesn't look like this picture. >.>;

I like how she seems slightly softer, but also more in control - I could get the image of the little adorable girl and the slightly crazy woman to connect in my head, but this seems a more natural progression of both.

I love the glasses detail as well; did she get the bad eyesight from her papa?

It does tend to run in the family, I guess!

You can thank ~jadawin12 for the design of Yeesha you see before you, I just drew her to his specs. I do think he did a good job in describing a more realistic (and pleasant!) Yeesha.

Aw, thanks! I may have said this before, but it comes from a time when for some reason there were no pencils to be found in our house. As anyone would, I just learned to work with what I had.
