we were born to make history

So this started out as a smudgy portrait sketch of FFXIV Dawntrail's very own Koana (bottom image--my first attempt at him!) and I was going back and rewatching cutscenes for refs and. MY. HEART. It was so full, and my muse went "Why stop at one Koana when you could have ALL THE KOANAS??!" and so the whole pencil sketchpage was born!

I mean, c'mon--a green bespectacled catboy with flashy guns and a heart of gold? I never stood a chance! :D

~If you would like to take home some Koanas too, Art Print Pre-Orders are now LIVE on my Meadowhaven Ko-fi FFXIV fanart shop and gallery! Etsy isn't ideal for offering pre-orders, so I'm trying out a new themed shop setup on Ko-fi.

~All Koana Sketchpage pre-orders come bundled with a smaller print of the standalone Koana portrait as an extra thank you bonus! All purchases and donations go toward the goal of funding a first print run. Help me get this green boi into print! <3

The Crystal Ball

Rand al’Thor. In the glass columns you will walk the footsteps of your blood ancestors. Each step forward, a step backward through time. Sometimes dozens of years, sometimes hundreds. To lead is to know where you came from, to understand the blood in your veins.
