"Her hair was copper, burnished, almost ablaze; it reflected the white light of the dome like a halo over her head, bounced like fine-spun gold on her shoulders, competed with the polished bangles she wore on her arms. Gold rings on a slender golden chain supported a sheath of white leather which she wore like a glove, and on her feet sandals of pale leather stitched in gold. Over her shoulders a long cloak of black fur, skillfully shorn from the wings of great bats, shimmering with a weave of fine golden stitches, and about her waist a large black leather belt, buckled with her crest -a snarling wolf's head- and supporting, on one rounded hip, her gauntlet.
A woman, an incredibly beautiful woman, or she would have been, if not for her scarlet eyes..."
There was a picture I used for inspiration for this pose but I lost it a while back. Just saying so I don't get yelled at.
I've just started re-reading my Necroscope books and decided to look for any related artwork. I love your picture, she looks menacing yet graceful and the fact that you've kept her face hidden means we can still all see our own versions of her face.
Haha, I'm so glad you like it! I did shade her face to make it ambiguous, thats the best part of any good story; Enough information to make it interesting, enough left open to make it your own.
