Description Here's another character portrait for the upcoming comic; the initial concept for a character named Leilani. She's the elite personal guard of a minor lord in the empire the story takes place in.

Though it's still somewhat under discussion, I think Infaela and I have agreed that bathing should be considered not only good manners in this particular culture, but almost ceremonial in its importance. So, I placed her by the bath.

Done in Photoshop 7.

EDIT:
03/10/04 6:39PM MST - Hopefully final update. Tinkered with the anatomy of her arm. Submitted a (properly sized) version to Epilogue's galleries again. Hopefully things will turn out better this time. ^^ Thanks for all of the comments~

this is perfect ! her look is great, her hips are so realistic too and the background/water are good looking too. + the rose is just amazing with the details
sorry if this isn't a real complete critique, but i like it ^^

Is she black?

I guess it'd be more accurate to say she's Polynesian, or she's supposed to look it.

Leilani is so BEAUTIFUL!
youve done a really god job on her, i love your tyle.
her eyes look perfect and you've enhanced her beauty by making them especially big
her hair also looks great, i love how it hangs over her arm and it really looks like it has weight to it
she has a really good face, it looks so lost and thoughtful.
great work, your art has made my evening
