Description
PhotoStudio, fifteen hours.September 2010.
(Download will give you the biggest version.)
Sophitia Alexandra from the video game Soul Calibur. With fifteen hours clocked this is my most time consuming piece *ever*. It happens also to be my 200th Damsel in Distress.
If, like me, you have a reflection-bondage fetish, then there are a lot more here: [link]
Edit: Corrected some of the most glaring reflection errors. If you see more, please tell me!
Several references for the pose and the face and the background.
Taki, another gal from Soul Calibur:
Some other bound Sophitia's:

The only issue I see is that she appears to have no breasts. They need to partially obscure the lower rope, or have shading under them, or something, but right now it appears that Sophitia's lovely rack has been horribly removed.

You make a good point there, the shadows are certainly underdone. As for the ropes not being obscured, I didn't do that because they are more or less at eye height. For better or or worse...

I am afraid i have to disagree. I bet that every constant watcher of your works will point them out in a thousand others.

Every artist has his own style, so you can probably do that with quite a few drawing artists around here

Great shading on her outfit, the reflection and a difficlult position to draw.

Sophitia. Goddess of War. Protecter of Home and Hearth. She who wields the magic sword of nonreflection. (Oops. Was that intended?)

It reflects against the floor, if that's what you mean. In the sword you would only see a reflected of the pillars, I think, but I thought that the light coming from the left would wash that out.
See, I did give it some thought

The reflections of the pillars were all wrong, as was the reflection of part of her leg. Also I had made the girl and the background separately. The green background I use when I draw was still partly visible. Bondagegirrrrl point that one out.

Not personally but when playing those sorts of games I would pick someone fast and reasonably strong, just to give myself a fair chance.
