Description EDIT: This is the final version now

el'Nynaeve al'Meara.

"She is a Wisdom, a Yellow Sister of the White Tower, wife of Al'Lan Mandragoran, and a Qeen. A lot of words describe Nynaeve but dainty isn't one of them. She is a Two Rivers woman!" ~CDL113

I just love her, she is an all time favorite of mine.
art by Ariel Burgess

I will be posting cards of my choice to post for teasers.
These are three from the Wheel of Time card deck that I am making.

The watermark is just in case I end up using this in an official deck.
let me know what you all think.

One of my personal favorites no matter how frustrating she can be at times to read about. XD Why does she have a dot on her head? I never understood why she did, as I'm only on Book 5 atm...

ReddEra In reply to SugarShugaChan [2012-12-19 21:39:46 +0000 UTC]

Me too, I just love her character.
You might get see some clues about the dot in New Spring, she does not get it till book 7 though. I won't say what it is or why she has it because I don't want to spoil anything for you. Hopefully you'll puzzle it out soon.

This is lovely! I particularly love how the braid looks, and she's got that haughty expression on her face that looks very Nynaeve-y. It look quite a long time for Nynaeve to grow on me, but I like her now, quite a bit, even if she still frustrates me sometimes. XD

ReddEra In reply to LostOddity [2012-12-06 01:56:51 +0000 UTC]

Yea she can be frustrating but she is definitely one of my favorites. When I started her line art I knew she needed to be scowling.

I think her face is fine- and beautiful! But i don't know anything about the character so I cant really critique her looks or expression i guess~

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ReddEra In reply to Phanteia [2012-04-27 17:41:00 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. She is very bossy and scowls a lot, but she has a strong sense of morality and good. She is also very powerful.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Phanteia In reply to ReddEra [2012-04-27 23:38:34 +0000 UTC]

well i think you capture that in her face perfectly! I think its just the squarish jaw that does it, but she's clearly female so pah to everyone else! people need to draw more unique characters. not everyone looks that feminine anyway...i think quite a few girls look pretty neutral if you scrape their hair back lol.

I wish I had time to leave a comment for every single one of these cards! They are all perfect, and beautiful. I would buy them in a second if they were ever made an official deck.

ReddEra In reply to Alsdale [2012-02-05 15:52:19 +0000 UTC]

They are an Official Deck. I announced it a week or so ago on the FaceBook page, also in my journal here.
They should be available for purchase late April. When I can say by who and where I will post it here and on the FB page.
Most of the updates and progressions are there though. So if you're on Facebook you can like it and get more updates.

SO Thank you very much. I appreciate all the feedback I get. It is very helpful and touching.

If you need the link the FaceBook page is here:

Spread the word.

medea2 [2012-02-03 14:13:50 +0000 UTC]

Love her dress and hair, but I have to agree with the others that said her face doesn't look good. If you don't mind some constructive criticism, I think the problem mostly lies in that her strong jaw and mouth overwhelm the upper part of her face. That's why she comes off as masculine. So I'd tone down the eyebrows so they look less Spock-like and make her eyes a little larger to balance things out a bit.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ReddEra In reply to medea2 [2012-02-03 17:49:01 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for the critique. I have already gone over her and made those changes. they are good ones.
Today I'm going to post all of the updated cards. So soon this, Moraine, Lan, Egwene and others will have their images replaced with the newer ones.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

medea2 In reply to ReddEra [2012-02-04 01:36:33 +0000 UTC]

Is this the new version? Hmm... I think the eyebrows make her look a bit too mean, but everyone's got their own mental image of how these characters look, so I don't want to tell anyone 'hey, you should change it to fit MY image'. There is no right or wrong look. Overall, I've really enjoyed looking at your cards. You're really talented at drawing clothes - the dresses all look so beautiful and perfectly suited for each character. I was also impressed how you took the time to add details like jewelry and the Asha'man pins.

Something I noticed when looking at the thumbnails is that the shading on the bridges of some character's noses (Moiraine and Nynaeve) looks a bit too dark. It's not an issue with tanned characters, but pale-skinned ones can easily look like they've got dirt on their face. It's more noticeable when you look at the thumbnails, so I just wanted to point that out in case these are going to be printed. (I've had unpleasant surprises myself when printing art and discovering that things that looked fine in large size looked off in smaller size.)

ReddEra In reply to medea2 [2012-02-23 02:35:50 +0000 UTC]

lol Thank you, I do get a lot of "Well that's not how I imagine them".
I just try to be as accurate to the character description and personality as I can.
Thank you so much for your comment. It is helpful and lets me know what I am doing right.

I have paid attention to your suggestion about the shadows.
I've lightened some of them for the approved cards.
Yes, these are going to print. Thanks for the tip.
Any print mistakes would have been awful.

I don't think Nynaeve would aprove of haveing that much of her bosom shown (just messing man this is aswome)

ReddEra In reply to Dragonbreader [2011-10-29 17:26:39 +0000 UTC]

Thank you.
Yeah I was going with how hypocritical she was being in the last book about cleavage and how Elayne was saying just how low it was on Nynaeve. lol I still love her though

Dragonbreader In reply to ReddEra [2011-10-30 17:02:07 +0000 UTC]

Your welcome and I just showed this to my perents (every one in my family reads WOT) and they thought this was prity aswome along with some of the other WOT things you did.

Eironea [2011-10-27 19:56:37 +0000 UTC]

Considering that Nynaeve is my favorite character, possibly second to Moiraine, I had anticipated it to have been hard to actually make me like any kind of picture of her. But I digress. This is incredible is every way, just like your other cards. You captured her very essence. Sad to say that they (your WoT-cards) are your only art that I've been checking out yet, but thats about to change!
Keep up the good work! Pweeeaaasee!

ReddEra In reply to Eironea [2011-11-02 18:42:14 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. I am also a fan of the series and Nynaeve is one of my favorite characters. It was important to do her justice.
When doing these cards the aspect I focus on most is showing their personalities. I am very glad that you are happy with the result. Fans can be a tough crowd

smaaask [2011-08-01 17:55:07 +0000 UTC]

wow, shes awesome ^_^ pretty much how I imagined her
Though I believe she would be quite outraged by being put in a dress that show that such a large amount of cleavage

ReddEra In reply to smaaask [2011-08-03 19:43:33 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. At about book 13 Egwene and Elyane emphasis that Nynaeve has been wearing considerably low dresses. I also thought it might boost her personality in the image. In her WOT Wikia page it is also mentioned that she has started wearing dresses she would have disproved of in the first book. [link] in the Appearance section.

ah, in that case xD I havent really gotten that far yet...just started on book 8 ^_^ for the last couple of book when they have been traveling around and they wear the local fashion she always complain about the dresses, how snug they fit, how low the cut is and all that

She looks hot to me! As a reader of the novels, she is one of my favorite characters. She is a Wisdom, a Yellow Sister of the White Tower, wife of Al'Lan Mandragoran, and a Qeen. A lot of words describe Nynaeve but dainty isn't one of them. She is a Two Rivers woman!
