Description "If only I had gotten the chance to know you better."

I just felt like drawing a picture of a teary Maya remembering her mother. :c

She's so upbeat for someone who's gone through so much crap. Which makes me realise how out of character this image probably looks LOL OH WELL.

And yeah I know her magatama is orange but I'm just gonna go ahead and pretend they all glow green or something. Hyeah.


----
Please ignore the ugly background perspective. That's what I get for not properly drawing stupid perspective lines first.



Drawing the tatami mat was exciting.


...

And by exciting I mean I have no idea what made me think drawing the tatami fibres and the trimming patterns by hand was a sensible thing to do.

Close ups:

Maya's face (before adding in extra green glow): [link]


Oh lawd I think there is going to be a thunderstorm soon. D: *shrivels up like beef jerky*

I'm pretty sure Phoenix's glows green, so it makes sense if hers does, too. For some reason I always imagine magatama green...

Anyway, I love the picture. And you're right, she's been through a lot of shit throughout the games. Love how candid this picture is.

Ah, very nice. I like that you show the other side of her. For how she acts, sometimes you forget everything she's been through.

Wow, Maya's really beautiful and emotional in this drawing. It's not out of character at all, since we know that Maya's an extreme emotion person, so when she's happy she's extremely happy, when she's upset, she's extremely upset.
Great work on the green glow and especially the kanji/hiragana scriptures in the background.
That must have taken a while.

This is beautiful! And I don't think it's OC at all. I think because she is so upbeat, the only way to deal with her loss and all the crap is in private.

ps. I thought her Magatama was green...wasn't it the same one that HoboFee had in AJ? I could be wrong...

pps. I <3 ur facepalm icon! Picard ftw...

I tried reading the thing in the back....

Then I realized
1. My knowledge of the asian languages is super poor.
2. It's a bunch of scribbles. B|a

And fuck thunderstorms. (åąŽā˛ Đ”ā˛ )åąŽ åŊĄ â”ģ━â”ģ

It's been raining pretty much nonstop for the last five weeks.

I'm still nowhere close to doing pro-colouring with copics, though. I got artworks rejected about "how many times I've forgotten" by #MarkerMania , even though my last few have improved.

#MarkerMania is full of colouring pros, I tell ya! D:
