Description Long ref sheet is LONG. Hit "DOWNLOAD IMAGE" for full size.

===

Because I was the only kid on the block without a reference sheet |D

This image is at 60% of the working size. I started it on January 3rd and was all, "Oh, I'll finish this in no time!" It took me a WEEK. Can you believe it?

Wing's got a pretty serious story, so I tried to balance it out with some humor tossed into her info. Did I mention that she has a sweet tooth? Let me know if you have questions or caught anything else interesting in here too--It was a bit of work condensing her backstory into a couple paragraphs without losing the feel I wanted for it.

For those who would like to learn more, here's Wing's backstory: lyritwolf.deviantart.com/art/W…

What time is this set in, because it's hard to ascertain.

It's in a different world, but the best way to describe the time era is medieval steampunk.

Why does she have only one wing? Was the other one lost in a fight?

Hey!
Wing's backstory summary here doesn't include the explanation for the wing because it would be way too long to include on a ref sheet mainly for artists.

Her short story on my website explains it all if you're interested:

This is gonna sound kinda technical, but what style is Wing's blade in? It's European looking but my insatiable curiosity needs a little bit more....pwease? (O).(O)

LorDefiance In reply to Amaster102 [2012-01-11 02:45:09 +0000 UTC]

Hey!

It indeed is a European (two-handed, double-edged) broadsword, the kind you'd see a medieval knight with. It's just decorated with gems because I think they're pretty, and with all the fancy stuff my style tosses in I realize the European style's probably ambiguous by now. XD

I wrote a page on the crystal blade material when I was in high school as well:

Let me know if I answered your question!

Amaster102 In reply to LorDefiance [2012-01-11 19:19:19 +0000 UTC]

Yep pretty much. I am wondering if it has a broad taper (soft metal to prevent bending damage) Leave shapped (kinda like 2 oblong shapes, best for slashing because the sharpness holds) Ridged (Painful) Concave (blood channel or grooved) or if it's just parralel made (Easiest to make).......
Sidenote, I took a few blacksmithing classes

Now you'd probably be able to answer that question better than me, because my knowledge doesn't go that far!

Amaster102 In reply to LorDefiance [2012-01-12 17:01:18 +0000 UTC]

Well it looks like it's parallel, but looking at it flat drawn it's down the same way as grooved. Anywho it's still epic

Wing is a very unique character! I like how you added the storybook aspect to her reference. It's a neat means of telling her backstory. Nice work on this piece and awesome anatomy regarding wing.

Beautiful reference sheet I love that you included details on her past/history as well as the little details of her weapon/moon crests etc. The pose with the wing showing is my favourite

Plus - timing couldnt be better! This is a big help to me now that I am in the sketching stage of your last image
