Finalized profile for a character I've thought about for a long time now:
Name: Ouggiri
Age: 25
Home Country: The Kingdom of Tanehsu
Occupation: Princess (with Queenly ambitions)
Equipment: Bronze spear and dagger
Personality: Ouggiri is a compassionate and brave woman who believes in nurturing and protecting her people as if they were her own children. However, as might be expected for a princess, she has an arrogant and pampered attitude and doesn't take criticism very well.
Biography: Ouggiri is the daughter of King Ajala of Tanehsu. When he passed away, Ajala said his throne would pass down to her, but the politically influential Priests of the Sun elected her more conservative half-brother Nalsu into power instead. Nalsu now rules Tanehsu as a stingy tyrant, so Ouggiri has run away to the southern jungle kingdom of Yam to raise an army against him. Along the way, she meets a handsome and cocky adventurer named Godric from distant Albion, but he may be hiding something about his past from her...
***
I have been redesigning and renaming this character for what seems like half a year now, but I've finally gotten around to writing her story and am almost 3,000 words into it as of now.

Seriously, this does happen in the game. It's just the audio of a mother telling a "soldier" this, but still, heavy stuff. I took it kind of personally at first, then I realized “Oh, yeah. I get to kill those guys. A lot.” The game got that much better at that point.
Not sure why it doesn't display properly on the site, but check it on my site here:

It's true, though. Don't screw with us.
This made my day.

There Will Come Soft Rain
This artwork was inspired by Sophia Light's "Winding Down", a short story in the SCP Foundation universe. Before reading it, It is recommended to read this first for more background info
Set on a dying world which was destroyed by a virus that turn organisms into clockwork machines, this illustration took the scene where Agent Ketterson, the mostly-converted protagonist, hug his fiancee/ wife who was reduced into an automated gardener. In this succumbing last settlement in the empty Siberian tundra, she sings Sara Teasdale's poem "There will come soft rain"
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
And frogs in the pool singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white;
Robins will wear their feathery fire,
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,
If mankind perished utterly;
And Spring herself when she woke at dawn
Would scarcely know that we were gone.'
Originally made on a pencil draft, it was quickly abandoned as more and more deviations were made. For example, both the face and the hair were changed TWICE, cos the one in the draft just look masculine:) I actually went over-detailed on the guts due to the extreme zoom-in I used, which would be covered by the blizzard
Without references from lines drawing, it would take a much longer time without the tablet borrowed by Owen Li. Thanks Owen:) Kinda go addicted with it, now I could no longer paint with mouse! (the face and the girl's guts were done by mouse)I was going to put on some half-mechanized plants to hint on the virus, or the fully converted sparrow featured in both the story and poem. But eventually I just decided to kjeep it simple. Just THIS had taken me long enough:(
The tears were gone, in an endless loop.
The world outside was wide and cold.
“There will come soft rains, and the smell of the ground…” '

Why is it every time I try to post a picture the image gets f****d up?

@EnglishJess: I like your drawings! Much better than what I can do(it doesn't sound like much when I say that because I can't even draw trees right, but I am complementing your art 
)
