Description Woah! What is this?! Another FINISHED PIC? Let me tell you, this is insanity. Though to be fair, this is the second piece in this spree that has been worked in for around a month and was just sitting there awaiting to be finished. You can see a whole lot of process shots of it on my (sometimes shared) tumblr bastete.tumblr.com/ .

I'm not sure about that... vapor like thing. The whole picture was going to be a lot more... sintetic or something like that, but I'm not sure it works with the rest as it is. I like how it balances the colors, though, so it is staying.

Again, the character is from the Belgariad books... Pol, at the  beggining. I liked the books enough, but honestly I just picked the characters because I wanted to play with their design. There are a lot of other stuff I love and would like to fanart, but this is what I've been reading recently and was fresh in my mind to work with. I'd like to make another picture of her by the end of the story. It is my headcanon that, while still always a large woman, she'd get much fitter after all the adventuring... However, as I said, there are stuff I like better and if I'm going to fanart, I'd like to pick something else. But I'll do whatever I come up with, honestly. I like this making stuff spree I've been having!

This actually really fits the vision of Pol I had at the beginning of the books, a lot of people draw her kind of skinny and...while I am sure she wasn't portly all the time, it's generally implied that Pol's not all that bothered about beauty - that was more Beldaran's forte. I always see her as a slightly filled out motherly sort. Beautiful in her own way, but weathered by years of heartbreak and do-overs.

THANKS! It means a lot to me that you say that. What I enjoy about drawing fanart is being able to put out my interpretation of characters and stuff... So it's nice that you feel the same way I do about this character.
 Yeah, I wanted to draw her especially because she was drawn all mighty and skinny in the book cover and that's not what... she feels like to me at the beggining of the book. She's mighty, sure, but she doesn't feel that cold lady-witch to me. She's a lady, sure, and she's beautiful, too, but at the beggining of the book she's also someone who's lived 15 years as a cook in a farm, basically being a mother. So I wanted to show that .
