Yeeeeah, okay, my titles for these are kinda lame. Moving on!

The second half of the Aztec-themed antagonist/potagonist assignment. She's meant to represent absorption of culture, the gift of museums, that sort of thing- thus the codex folding behind her. Had a blast designing this one.

So angular... it's really very appealing to the eye. That... thing on the back... kinda like a curtain, is really nice. All the clothes here are nice actually... You draw them well.

Now THAT is gorgeous. It's great to see someone embracing the themes of a culture and making something wonderful from it, rather than just borrowing the "cool" elements and making some sort of lackluster derivative.

EXCELLENT work. The codex is a wonderful effect.

I'm really loving all of these Amazonian character designs... are these just personal work, or is this for something professional?
