Description
"As a diplomatic envoy of the Tau Empire Water Caste, I do not often get the chance to lay eyes upon the distant homeworld of my species. Yet even here from orbit, it is truly a magnificent sight, wouldn't you agree?"

~Attributed to Por'O Elsy'eir, Doran'ro Elro, (Translated: Water Caste Ambassador Elsy'eir, calm-minded speaker) dated, 0607, 998.M41

So, since it's been roughly... 8 months or so since I last posted anything involving this character, I figured I'd give it another try. As usual, I suck at backgrounds, so the background is a composition of two pieces with a litle tweaking (credits will be given below to avoid plagiarism / unfair use)

The pose is something I was never all that happy with. The right arm just got in the way, and the only way to keep it in even semi-naturally was to put it where I left it in the end, which is still pretty awkward in terms of perspective and god this is a run-on sentance... basically poor planning and proportional practice on my part, something I'm working on improving.

I'd call this borderline fanservice, but it's not exactly anything lewd or particularly revealling. It simply is what it is, and I had plenty of fun doing it, even though the damm software froze up a PAINFULLY frustrating number of times...

Oh and before anyone asks, no, I haven't forgotten about the Sketches. They're done, most of them anyway. I'll wrap up the ones I have yet to do tommorow, then scan and post 'em all in a sketchdump deviation. My apologies for the delay, I really can't explain why I haven't been more productive. Mostly studying and dealing with life issues.

PS. I'd be amazed if anyone even noticed this without me drawing attention to it, but her 'formal' name got an update from the last time I posted artwork of Elsy, due to her lack of involvement with the Tau Empire's millitary branch at present date. Obscure trivia FTW.
