I love this style! So gorgeous. I especially love Irene's hair, and her Mediterranean nose, and the rubies in her headband and earrings (GEN'S EARRINGS Y/Y???) and necklace and shoulder clasps, and the drapery of her gown, and the roughed-up texture of the whole piece...

In short, really fabulous work, thanks for sharing it!

Oh, I saw this floating around Tumblr! I love it! The ruby headband is perfect, and the wood-like texture is lovely. : )

I agree, way beautiful.

Oh my, these are stunning. All of them. (And I'm tickled that I recognize every character.) Love how you captured Attolia in a more pensive, private mood.

(Side note, I adore your Lord Peter, and the quote you picked to go with the portrait.)

Oh, wow. THis is so gorgeous, thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I think I got more little details "right" (IMO) in the portrait than in the others because I have so much practice drawing Attolia. I think I've drawn her more than I have any other character. Her nose, hair, and clothes are all sort of vaguely based on greek statues.

Yes, I did post it to tumblr, then I realized I should post it here as well. :-)

Thanks :-). To be honest, Lord Peter was a hard one and it may be the one I'm least satisfied with. I like it, but... meh. I'll have to do more Lord Peter pictures I guess.

I love all of your wood-cut style drawing. It's hard for me to pick a favorite, but I think Attolia might win out, closely followed by Mia and Sabriel.

Lovely! Great detailing with the jewelry.

[freenarnian.livejournal.com]

Beautiful. I love her hair and the detail of her sleeve.

This is stunning! I love the fact that she isn't haughty in this picture.

As an aside, your Maia from the Goblin Emperor is also perfect, :).

Thank you! I struggled a lot with Mia, but I'm mostly happy with how he turned out. I'm glad you like it :-)
