So here is a little something that will probably flood my channel for a bit. It started with the 6 Fanarts Hashtag but Evolved into their own Cards too (I'm still going to submit the 6 Fanart Challenge). Anyways so it's also a fun way to rapid fire out some characters in a format that people would enjoy and find...collectable?

I'm hoping to do 50 this year at least. Almost completely requested from various prompts and challenges I do.

Anyways enough of the self explanations, here we have Okoye from the Black Panther fandom. I really can't find too many images for reference of her online beyond a lot of movie stills and some comic panels. This is of course her more modern look based off the comic which is a lot closer to the movie, though I might revisit drawing how she looks from the Marvel Strike Force game since her outfit in that was really cool too.

I don't know a whole lot about the character in terms of personality or anything - mostly seems to be just the ultimate loyal support badass role and leader of the Dora Milaje whom throughout the comic history never had much consistency in their design until recently (Thankfully, it was almost getting me a headache of how inconsistent the designs were between so many comic issues - but I think that's because no one really agreed to a default model for them and thus their designs were always up to the comic artist at the time... which is all over the fucking place).

So for now she's holding one of those neat spear things and an SMG since depending on the artist or writer of any Black Panther issues at the time the Wakandan Special forces have literally been shown to use virtually anything you can think of in terms of fictional and realistic weapons.

Looking back at how much of a mess Wakanda's designs were and supportive characters throughout the history of the Black Panther continuity, I can't stress how relieved I am to see a much more concrete and fleshed out it is now more than ever.

Also Okoye is pretty damn cool.
