Description
"The elements are now yours to control"This is my Draenei Shaman Shva'sika. She's an elemental/Restoration shaman but I chose to illustrate the elemental side because I thought it looked cooler
Her headdress was inspired by Dreaming of Peace (along with the face paint). I figured shamans were supposed to be attuned with nature so having a skull headdress was a nice touch.
Some parts of this I'm not overly happy with (like her sausage fingers) but all in all I love this piece, especially the shading. This is the first time I've use multiple light sources so it was a nice new challenge.
The symbol on her arm is the same as the one in Fate . It's our guild symbol and a tattoo seemed cooler than a tabard (just like a cloak clasp looked cooler with Lazmira)
Hope you all like this as much as I do!

Your guild-symbol looks a little bit like a symbol for the horde^^

lol Yeah it does but I think it's actually the symbol for the Silithid (though I could be wrong lol).

Not completely. The Draenei herself is, but everything else is not.

I love the Draenei THeir such a beautifull race
I just dislike how people keep showing the females as sex-objects, and call the males ugly... Sheez... I love the males for that matter! Much better then those metrosexuel Blood elf guys said bashers keep playing Where is the Dreanei guy love?
Either way, you managed to capture the Draenei perfectly An exotic look, but with an elemental and lightblessed dignity

Thank you!
I know exactly where you're coming from. Although I'm more partial to characters only in Vanilla I do love the Draenei. They have a lot of character and I'm not fond of the hate or derogatory themes placed against them.

Into to College Math, Digital Editing (film and film editing class), 2-D animation (after effects/special effects class), and Project planning with the group you should totally hand over your photography II notes to me so I can learn how to uses those cameras better lol

Hahaha, I could definitely do that! I'll try to get good notes anyways. lol
We get to use the more exciting Nikons for the class too, which is kinda cool. Although I think I'm gonna stick to my Canon anyways. It is tempting to use the Nikon though, since it does have a better zoom lens than I have on my Canon. *shrugs*

Yea you guys get to use the D70s. Personally I'd try out these new cameras and then if you don't like them go back to your canon. They teach you how to use them so you might as well test them out lol
