Description MY LINES GET SO HEAVY WHEN DOING FREEHAND SKETCHES.
(Maybe I get too frustrated without a grid?)

Any tips with freehand illustration, guys?

I'm so sad that I couldn't capture her badassery in the artwork

***START OF RANT, IGNORE IF YOU WISH***

In other (related) news...
Finally. FINALLY! Ubisoft had the balls to do an AC game in China!
And. AND! Another female protagonist!
Apparently, Shao Jun from AC: Embers gets to star in her own title  

But. BUT! It's a half-assed, side-scroller, 2.5-dimensional game, WHICH PISSES ME OFF 
I HATE SIDE-SCROLLERS (*cough* Like Elsword *cough*)

Literally every AC fan has been praying for an Asian-themed AC game and THIS IS HOW THEY ANSWER THEIR FANS?
A F***ING SIDE-SCROLLER!?  

With all their resources, they could've made a full-blown, open-world DLC set in China (like AC4: Freedom Cry), but nooooo  

I am a very, very sad AC fan

Hi there! I was recently drawing Shao Jun and I stumbled on your amazing piece of her and I instantly became a fan of your work. I was hoping if you can teach me how to apply shadow to make it look realisitic.

I know what you mean about the game style choice, but I also like the artwork and style of AC: Chronicles. Not so much the game-play though. side=scrolls.

I KNOW RIGHT!! Awesome art btw! Cant wait to see the finished work!
But I hate how they also FINALLY have a female protagonist... AND a badass settings opportunity and they'll 
waste both these opportunities for some crappy shit like this.
I hope its like, what someone said that was with AC3, that its some sort of try out if people like to before making it a game.
Doubt that though but wth!!!!!

Thanks, bro!

Yeah, I totally agree with you, man.
Waste of a good (and charismatic) female character. Waste of a good setting.
They could have gone full fan-service mode and made a REAL AC game in China
Or even a stand-alone, open-world DLC.
Something exotic and oriental, for a change.

But, yeah maybe Ubi's just testing the waters.  I'll keep your thoughts in mind and my fingers crossed, my friend.

Almost every fan wanted China, its probably the most requested one and then they do this! And many people like Shao Jun. Plus she got that box from Ezio which is still a mystery now it popped up in Liberations and Freedom Cry. As long as they wont involve that in this... weird-ass game there are hopes for a game. If not then I think they just... rushed the story about that in this thing.
Sooooo lets indeed hope they just teasing us. Like they always do. And stab us in the heart with almost everything... which... they always do too...
