Description Shadi running away from the guards, again. While she's in a way forced to beg and steal, she quite enjoys being a thief. She likes the danger, the thrill of taking something without being noticed, or the adrenaline rush when she is chased by the guards.
In this case she managed to escape by climbing up a wall, something she's VERY good at, she even has the time to mock the guards chasing her!
...Shadi should really try to change her lifestyle, before something bad happens. At this point the soldiers may recognize her on sight, and the "Kings of Beggars", the criminal overlords who rule the slums, don't like freelance thieves stealing in their territories...  In both cases death would be the better option.

Anyways! This drawing took me AGES to finish, especially because I had only an hour a day to work on it if I was lucky. I've been working on it for a whole month, and I was starting to be quite sick of it XD  (also why I haven't posted much, this kept me busy).
This is the first time I worked on a perspective of this kind, and let me tell you it was pure madness! It looks off in many places, especially Shadi's position is all wrong (and it irks me to no end), but at the same time I'm pretty damn pleased of the result! In the end it was good practice for the future, I learned a lot.

I really hope you like it, and if you have any feedback I'd be super happy to hear it!   Oh, and happy holidays to everyone!

See, humans? This is what happens when you treat non-humans as lesser beings - they start having fun mocking you for failing to catch them.

Poor Shadi, though...Eventually, this won’t be a game anymore.

Haha! I love the cat on the right cheering her on and the lizard giving her this "oh, you never change..." look.

Haha indeed, there's a nice feeling of revenge! Same reason why that cat is cheering for her, he's happy the darn humans are failing.

Yep, it's not a game, and she will realize it the hard way eventually.

Cool, Shadi being the stealthy one on her feet.

This is one of your best works, 0laffson. The amount of detail and scale you put into this is impressive.

This is really well done. It's not easy to draw people from a bird's-eye view but I can't see any mistakes here (I wish I was that good) The shading and colors look nice too and I love the little details like the gras on the wall. And Shadi is always a plus too. I like that character.

Hello:
 Hehehe, we all know those kinds of character from several stories, I hope things will not get a turn for the worse for her, hehehe.

 I do like the use of perspective in this drawing, a semi-aereal look on all characters there, with tons of foreshortenings. Good work! .

Hello:
 Mwahahahahaha... but that gives me a kind of mixed-feelings, because while I would feel very sad for Shadi, the curiosity of knowing what will happen and how is too much to ignore .

 You are most welcome! .
