Description

Once again re-hashing the same ol' model sheet that I've been using. So sue me, this is what we call lack of time >_>; But when I do model sheets for my main characters, I'll be doing different poses and stuff, but not for these race characters X3 So deal.

Anyways this is my new character, Magnolia, a fish-like creature that is part of the race, Calanthra. The Calanthra race has been created by PE, the Private Exchange, and is exclusive ONLY to members of PE. This race was created due to inspiration from one of our PE members, *showkaizer :3 who has created his own Cilessian race ^.^ *that mos of us all know and love* So yar! Go fishy goodness!!

Magnolia, and the entire Calanthra race, are named after flowers *of course*. Sort of like flora-fish people. They also, as a main race trait, have bioluminescent markings on their bodies, so the pink colored markings on Magnolia actually glow.
I don't have much info on Magnolia yet, but here are some tid bits on her so far :3

Magnolia is an Albino fish. She was born with pure white skin and blood red eyes. Due to her defect she is also completely blind, hence why she wears her hair over her eyes. This idea was given to me by seeing this image done by =dreamworldstudio . So I decided to just completely cover her eyes to represent her blindness ^.^d
Magnolia is going to be a 'seer' of sorts, more of a mystic then an actual fighter type. But she does have a psychic weapon, the Dolch'a *daggers*, just incase combant is in order. The blade of the daggers are made of psychic energy so when they are not in use only the hilts can be seen. Her other senses are heightend since she's been blind all her life, so she's developed keen senses to help her survive and thrive. Her eyes are blood red and frog-like as well, but it's rare for anyone to every really see them.
Magnolia loves water and she usually spends her time in the water then on the land. Hence why her outfit is so skimpy...since a lot of clothes would slow one down trying to swim thru the water. As well, Magnolia's tail is like that of an eel, which helps her speed thru the water.

I don't have any more information yet, but I'll have a great long bio for Magnolia soon in the furure ^_^ soo keep your eyes open.

It's very beautiful. A great character design

I love it the way details are put on the folds, the shape of her body, her hair and her body posture; as lines are in a perfect thick grade. The color is astonishingly well placed in a simple way with cell shading, but yet bringing life and not draining power of the lines.

Yep, I love the lines and the details, overall.

I love it.

Question- if she is an albino, how come she has pink markings? I thought albinos are devoid of all colour as they lack pigmentation.

Other than that, I love this. Esp the little details, like the webbing between her fingers and toes, and the fins. Very good.

Sayda In reply to Five-Farthings [2005-02-05 17:56:32 +0000 UTC]

She still has her bioluminecent markings because she is an alien fish-race and being albino doesn't quite affect them the same way as it does people and other creatures on Earth. If she had color her skin would have been an orange tone and her markings would have been a blue/green, but due her defect she lost all pigmentation except in the markings which drained to a pink color. Basically it affects the markings the same way as it affects the eyes of albino's which remains red in color as a trait. :3

Heehee, she looks elite! Everyone is making races! GOOD ONES! XD

I love her color scheme very much. She's so lovely and aquatic. You make awesome character designs Sayda; OMG SHE HAS WEBBED FINGERS AND FEET. Her daggers are bad ass.

All this race stuff is making me want to take mine out of retirement, but I can't draw and they are pretty ghetto.

Cool. I'm working on a aquatic race myself, which I've actually had a while but decided to adjust them so they can be a DA race. Anyways, this looks really cool, I love her skin color and her weapons. She looks so glowy.
