Ul'dah's worst

First time I ever drew Athral and Y'weta (my GF's character) in their Endwalker outfits and I have slight regrets because in true Square Enix fashion (pun fully intended) they are complicated and just inking this piece took about 7 hours.

It's not much but I can hold a pen again for long enough that I managed to make an enemy aggro circle thingie.

Update to the WIP

I'm growing more and more fond of the colors as is, even though they were only meant as a stand in. I still definitely want to make the bestial arms (hands and forearms specifically) look like they've been dipped into oil/petrol. Like, all black-brown-purple and oily and goopy looking.

Some more little tweaks and it's getting somewhere, I think.

i want to assume you only have good intentions with this, but ffs we cannot simultaneously complain that everything is set in fantasy european analogs and scream racism whenever someone tries to do something outside of that.

there is so little media set in fantasy america analogs, but what is really grinding my gears is that you are essentially saying that any depiction of our cultures is inherently racist since you cannot possibly at this time know that this is some sort of colonialism story. we deserve depictions too, and we deserve the chance to see for ourselves if it measures up. we deserve fantasy stories that we can see ourselves in.
