Throwback: Lady Izkaph (Patreon)

Azarian Stories

, Queen Izkaph.

My very first drawing of her dates all the way back to late 2010 (marker-coloured pictures in the upper left), although the concept of a benevolent, friendly high-ranked Azara has been in my head from the very beginning of the worldbuilding.

All the other drawings in this collection are from different months of 2014, when I really started going through her design, which is still in the works as of today! 

You can tell there has been a bit of improvement from the progressively less wonky anatomy, and from my style of drawing eyes, which changed during that period.

Also, at first, female Azaras used to have only one set of breasts XD

Despite everything, Lady Izkaph remains a physically and emotionally scarred, yet absolutely lovable character. Her personality and attitude are a mix of various, very different inspirations, historical and fictional, among which goddess Athena/Minerva, Queen Elizabeth I, Queen Victoria, and even Uncle Iroh from the Avatar series XD
