This is a very special character of mine and I've been wanting to draw her for a while now <3
I'm writing a book, I think a legitimate book, and she's the protagonist. I may have mentioned it to some of you. I've never gotten so far into writing a book before so I'm really excited for it, and I'm hoping I do this girl justice! You'll probably see lots more art of her as well!

I know what you guys are thinking: Oh man, here's YET ANOTHER OC who's lightsaber looks suspiciously like Kylo Ren's...
I know xD But trust me, there's an actual legitimate reason for why her lightsaber is all crazy and fizzy. It's a really important plot device and omg I'm just SO EXCITED. I was legit crying a few days while writing a scene of hers, all the feels...

Also, OMG I DREW A FULL BODY HUMAN. WUT. I know her face proportions are off, but I realised this after I had shaded everything and sketched this aforementioned face for an hour and I will just try better next time I'M STILL PRETTY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT
BUT I'D PROBABLY BE HAPPY WITH ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER TBH
I just realised that all the humans I've drawn lately are Star Wars characters xD Tbh pretty much everything I do now is Star Wars related... xD

Things I learned while doing this:
-Omg, I CAN actually shade with just colors. With no different opacity settings. THEY JOY OF COLOR PALETTES OMG
-Don't use your face as a reference for an asian person if you're not an asian person and if you don't want the person you're drawing to look like you...
-Doing dark-colorer hair is HARD. Omg xD It requires a lot more subtlety than light-coloured hair
-Backgrounds suck so just try to embrace tham as much as you can! xD

Time taken: Maybe around 10 hours? Not sure; all I know was that I was expecting it to go for much less than it actually did...
References: Pictures taken of myself and Sailor Sakky with Sword 11 (SenshiStock, you SAVED ME because I have the completely wrong body type for this character x3)

Critiques are welcome!
