Karine Eindottir [SFW] (Patreon)

For FireFangs – a portrait / half-body sketch of their beautiful character Karine. Think she is a Norn from GuildWars, with some nice muscle-enhancing mods to put her right at the level of size and definition I love drawing most.

I really enjoy her armor design, all the different textures were fun to render in grayscale. I may have embellished her abs a bit, but not by very much! She is a very statuesque Norn.

Now here are the finished versions (about 4 hrs after all the fiddling around with textures). Made several options with the snowstorm and parchment backgrounds:

Alternate versions without her face marking are attached in the .zip file
