Description
Chlorr of the Mask - about 50 mins.Chlorr of the Mask from Garth Nix's book, Lirael. I'm not sure if this is how Nix imagined her or wether this even fits the description in the book (I don't have it with me to check) but this is the image I have in my head. It's one of those times when I have such a vivid image, I have to get it down on paper - or rather pixels. I'm quite pleased with the end results.
[EDIT]
No, as I suspected, completely wrong. I re-read her description when I got home and from that I got that firstly she's supposed to be quite obviously female. No mention of a red cloak, she wears furs common to Northerners, has bone rings on silken gloves and her neck and edges of her head are visible around the dull bronze mask - not gold or brass mask as I've painted.
Still, not to worry. I quite like my version even if it's completely inaccurate.
...oh and the mouth on the mask is supposed to be open.
sigh.

I kinda envision Chlorr's mask to be like those Dragon Priest mask thingies from Skyrim, or like the masks the ReDeads from Zelda wear.

I still like it. I like how Chlorr was hinted as being an Abhorsen that wasn't too good

I like this version of the character. Maybe innacurate, but realy cool nevertheless. It has a great feel, which to my mind is more important that being word for word waht the author described.

You know the Abhorsen series is the reason why I started reading again. Amazing books really
Despite her inaccuracy, it's still well done!

She looks deceptively powerful, like a shaman.
I've only read his(Garth Nix) "Keys to the Kingdom" series, and I'm not even finished with it yet.
