So I've shared about this on Facebook, after starting this I dug out all the previous ref sheet I did of Soryane and I laughed and cried for a while, I've come so far... her first reference was from 2010 and never finished, then I finished 2.0 in 2011, 3.0 was never completed either in 2013 and 4.0 I've used the longest dates from 2014.

While I'm still happy with the quality of 4.0 it never felt quite right... I've been getting a lot of art commissioned of Soryane with it and while they do look like her, they don't feel like her sadly and it's not the artist's fault it's from the vibe of the ref sheet, her personality was off, it was too girly and bubbly... don't take me wrong I'm a happy person but while I do have girly moments I'm mostly rough around the edges and with I won't have none of your shit attitude and I wanted her ref sheet to reflect that.

Soryane has grown a lot over the years, her looks and attitude have become closer to the real me and I think her progression also shows how I've come to love and accept who I am and how I'm not scared of showing that to the world anymore! Do I get a cookie for self love eh?!
