Description Yet another RPG-related character, but despite appearances, she's not mine. This is Adaavia, ~lonestranger 's Codru-Ji Jedi.

I was tempted to draw her with four lightsabers, a la Grievous, but I couldn't come up with a good pose for that that didn't look spidery. Also, no anime eyes this time. They just don't seem fitting.

I hope I got the lighting right. The major light source is supposed to be in the upper-right of the picture, and I tried to treat the two lightsabers as minor additional light sources. (Notice the green on her armbands and neckpiece, and the blue in her hair.) I know the pants are very messed-up looking, but it was the best I could do. >.< Unfortunately, they kinda do blend in with the background because of their color, so I had to bump their brightness up and their contrast down to make them stand out a little more. Hopefully it works.

Adaavia is (C)
Star Wars and all related concepts are (C) ...Ummm... George Lucas, I guess? o.O Maybe 20th Century Fox? I dunno, look it up.

EDIT: Alright, alright, fanboys. Settle down. -.- The lightsabers aren't so dinky anymore. They also go off the screen, so whether you imagine a lightsaber blade as a cylinder or a blade shape, this pic looks like both. I also made some tweaks to the lineart so it looks less jagged, and changed up the shading in places.

Very well done, all Codru-Ji anatomical features appear to be correct, though the shape of the face is somewhat difficult to discern.
Those lightsabers appear to be too short, I've never heard of anyone wielding such small ones relative to their body size. They appear to be about as thick as her fingers; those would be very difficult to build and wield. I'd consistently stab myself with my fingernails if I tried to wield them. Even short lightsabers are usually thicker.
...I'm too much of a fan and too nitpicky. Sorry about that.

nice. and sexy. I only think the lightsabers look too solid, and a bit on the short side

I don't know why, but for some reason she sorta looks like, to my eyes, a cross between a Vulcan and a Klingon without the super ridges on her forehead. Or maybe it's just the Star Trek geek in my overpowering the Stars Wars fan. Can there truly be a balance between geekdom and fandom? Only the stars may tell. Until we figure out this conundrum...May The Force be with You.

P.S. Nice ripple effect on the atmosphere. It's like she's reaching out to the screen and trying to grab the audience by the throat.
