Thank you, Theorin. I really want to colour it, though, so hold your offer to bear my children until then.
As for my second piece today (of three), I call your attention to my old promise to Serpy to draw his character design as one of the ladies of Ijiyatsu. For ages, I was perplexed on how to draw him, with the only certainty an evil-looking eyepatch. Mostly it was because I couldn't figure out what kind of headpiece she should wear.
Last night, it hit me. She's a serpent. As such, she is worthy of bearing the hood of the King Cobra. Everything else went from there.
I realized a bit later that she looks like Ichirin, but that's cool with me since I like Ichirin's design. I kind of want to ink and colour this one too, but no guarantees~
