Artist's Comments

I'm pretty happy with the drawing. I'm not good with taking pics of my drawings though.

Anyway, this is Jora from the game Guild Wars: The Eye of the North.

:iconx-rey:helped me to find some info on her. This comes from Wikipedia:

Jora is a younger Norn, beset by tragedy. Like most of her generation, she has been seeking to establish her name and reputation. Only the hunters of the greatest prey are considered worthy among her people, and as such, she and her brother Svanir trekked through the icy uplands and valleys seeking the most challenging prey.
On one of their hunts, Jora and her brother encountered a great, dark power, and were transformed by it. She lost her Nornish ability to shapeshift into bear form, while her brother suffered a darker fate. Now without a family or homestead, she hunts across the Norn lands of the Far Shiverpeaks seeking redemption of her name and forgiveness by the Bear Spirit. To achieve her goals, she will undergo any ritual, achieve any quest, and seek any treasure needed. She will even accept the help of humans.

I love the little addition of the little drawing in the corner, it takes up a lot the unnecessary unfortunately left over blank space. :) The necklace and overall shading on her neck looks perfect in every way... And need I say it again? I think not but: I LOVE HER HAIR!!! It's so fun and unique... There's that one little braid that I think is part of her armor that I... nevermind. I JUST realized that she has a wide neck-armor thing and not just a simple necklace, but I couldn't tell because her braid is covering the little crease line thing on the right side that she has on her left...

That make sense? lol. I hope so.

All the details on this are amazing... I especially love all the armor too... and the hair... and... well. Everything. :D

It might just be because this is obviously not a scan, but it looks like her entire left side of her hair is a shade or two lighter than the right... Aaand.... She still has the eye thing going on, and I might be able to tell that the thing on her shoulder is a tattoo more if it wasn't just the outline...

But, dude, you are epic. This is amazing, you are so talented, and I love it :D

Yay for yet another long comment :D

Thank you so much :hug: You're right, the hair is darker on the right and the pic kind of made that worse.

Thank you so much for another wonderful and wonderfully long comment. I love your comments. :D

I'm glad you love my comments!!!
I don't do those to everyone, because I don't know if everyone else would be able to handle my trying hard to point out something that could be improved (in this case, the hair shades), without being offended.
But I know that you love me no matter what, so hah!
xD
I mean...
:hug: :D

I think your comments are great. And helpful. It's sometimes harder for me to see my own mistakes.

And you're right. I do love you no matter what. :D I'm glad we could become such great friends.
