Quiet Sketch (Patreon)

Hey guys the Monday pin up is still on the way tonight, but in the meantime I hope you like this sketch for KainRezo072 starring Quiet from Metal Gear Solid V.
I sank some time into MGS V, but I didn't make it to Quiet here in the story. Nothing against the game, I thought it was well made for what it was. It's just that I didn't have much interest in the prequel-era of the series centered on Big Boss. Solid Snake was my guy.
So like I said I didn't reach Quiet's introduction, but my brother did, and his recounting of her concept as a character still cracks me up to this day. According him, this was a woman who:
-Is fiercely loyal to her male master, who is roughly twice her age.
-Never speaks.
-Is allergic to clothes.
He said the only thing missing from Quiet was that she doesn't bring you beer on command. And from what I've seen, that assessment feels pretty dead-on. Makes me wonder why I don't remember Quiet stirring much controversy, as I'm sure there were plenty of people sitting around waiting to get mad at this kind of female representation. Maybe they were too busy trying to get the next Dead or Alive game banned in America at the time, who can say.
But am I wrong about Quiet? Is there more nuance than I'm giving her credit for? If so let me know in the comments!
