Thinking about Amber Bolt again and wondering about the lore you have for her 👀
Hooo boy where do I even start
Aight so first off, Amber is actually not her real name, it's an adventuring name she uses to follow Tabaxi naming conventions, to make her seem less suspicious. her name, given by her caretaker who took her in when she was orphaned in waterdeep, is Rhema. That caretaker, is working for the zhentarim and had groomed Rhema into joining as well to repay her for all good she's done for her. So now Rhema works as a spy and blackmailer for the zhents 👍
Now, around five sessions in, the cats out of the bag (ha) and the party knows, one of the party members have a bounty on his head and Rhema had to weigh whether killing him due to a petty argument between siblings (it was his sister who set the bounty) or keeping him alive for the sake of the mission they're all on which means going against orders. For now she has chosen the latter and is an absolute anxious mess over it lmao
I always notice sharp shadows and lines in your art :) it makes everything look like itd made up of a bunch of polygons if that even makes sense.
Oh and thick and slightly sketchy linework!
Ooooo I love that, I actually think of building in polygons when I’m sketching so this fitting!
lol the linework is sketchy because it is the sketch. I have been thinking of drawing line art more properly again 👀 at least for more proper illustrations
For me, it's the way you draw faces and the way you color! I don't know what specifically though, I can just tell
Maybe the eyes and the hues? Idk exactly but whatever it is, it's beautiful and very you!
Hmm I can see what you mean 🤔 I've been kinda trying to go back using more diagonal lines for building up faces and anatomy lately, that could be an influence. I also know that I have a set of colors I like using a lot lol
