Sylessae 2021 (Term 53) (Patreon)
Content
I AM SHOOK.
As you all know, we were hosting a redraw challenge over on Deviantart this month. I had hoped there were going to be some improvements in my next Sylessae portrait but I had no idea that the result (and the process, honestly) would have me so in awe. I feel really emotional, and really excited for the future and all there is to learn.
This was a fantastic experience. For anyone who is struggling a little bit with their confidence, I highly suggest redrawing one of your beloved illustrations.
Thanks for being a part of this redraw. <3
For nostalgia purposes, I'm sharing an old writing snippet from the very first Sylessae portrait. Twitch chat really wanted to hear more of her story and I think I might just end up developing it more.

The man was tall, nearly a head and a half on her; even as his shadow swallowed her, she did not shrink. She was used to the intimidation. Oh, the things she'd do to those men, men who mistook her for nothing more than an elegant wallflower. Her introduction was just above a whisper, her name rolling off her tongue like a gentle hiss. Her voice was sweet to the eardrums, like honey, though husky - like that of a queen or priestess. Her blue gaze shifted slowly, icy and empty as she met his crimson stare. The faintest grin pulled at the corner of the man's lips, amusement written behind his peering, but her countenance remained devoid of any emotion.
This man swore that, as he reached forth to guide her knuckles to his lips in greeting, he could feel the faintest chill crawl up his arm.
