This is my part of an art trade with Stephanie 'Seribaba' Hensley. It is her character Princess Lazaret.

This was a new experience for me - I drew, inked and coloured the picture in one day! That hasn't happened before. Coloured with Photoshop 7.0.

Yesh, guaranteed Maija-quality. And thus, perfectly suitable for drooling over...12
But I love her...chiton? Or was it chitoniskos? Well, the 'shirt' she has. And her hair adornment.
Either it's just me, and I've lost what little eye I've had for proportions, but her hands look a bit too small, imo.
What about those hieroglyphs? They mean anything, or are they there just for 'flavour'?

Bleh. How come I forget how to write everytime I try to comment? 2 But, as always, lovely work!

:-) Maija Viertola replies: "Frankly, I have no idea what the shirt is called. And yeah, her hands are too small (that is my curse).The hieroglyphs mean "the danger girls", if I remember correctly, at least so the makers of this font tell me."

:-) Maija Viertola replies: "Thanks for the first comment. I don't actually know that much about Egypt, so I'm glad if it's good."

It reminds me of Inara from Firefly, I like it.

:-) Maija Viertola replies: "Heh, perhaps she does look a bit like Inara."
