Here is an extremely fascinating character design created by the most wonderful, (yeah, don't raz me for saying this about you Maggie) .

Let's just say that magenta posted this lined work up one day and I saw it and read that she wanted to put this character design out there and if anyone wanted her that they should post a comment saying so. Well, I looked at her and looked some more and couldn't help myself and felt compelled to tell her, I want her.

The option to have her colored was offered for an additional fee and of course, I was more than happy to request that. What you see here was the final result. I also asked her to put some simple flats to show her fur patterns and colors and she even tossed in a chibi. I felt like I got more than I deserved when this was complete. She works well beyond what I believe some people would commission her for. She deserves to be treated well.

Anyway...

This is Kesi. She's feisty, in control and impetuous. A daughter to a pharaoh and an extremely skilled warrior and military leader. She is of the mindset that weakness is a fault and should be dealt with accordingly. Men she rarely considers an equal. Especially when they try to court her. She views romance as weakness. She takes what she wants and leaves the rest behind.

There will be more to fill her biography later. My apologies for the brief write up, but I've delayed uploading the full character reference, (although the brass color is missing on this sheet for her jewelry in the color chart). I'm afraid magenta may kill me though if I don't submit this now. *looks over shoulder*

EDIT: F5 please. The color palette has been fixed to show the brass jewelry and her sash colors now. Also, her name now appears on the ref sheet. Thank you again magenta! ~<3

I feel like a total slacker too. She's been nothing but wonderful to me and has done more than this and I have only managed to upload the full version of Kesi's character sheet. I'm a fool, but if you pay her a visit and watch her work. I would feel like I have redeemed myself for being so lazy.
