June 16th, 2012 EDIT: I majorly changed her face. The last face looked really wonky to me.
Note to self: Draw larger if you're drawing a human. It's hard to get the face looking just right when it's only an inch or so high.

This is the raffle/giveaway prize for stygma. It's her dreanei shaman character, Kassiel. The prize was originally meant to be a flat-colored head sketch like the last raffle prize was http://aboveclouds.deviantart.com/a.....mera-309260259 but I wanted to show her personality a bit more so I made it a waist up sketch instead. Then, when I was making the sketch, her face looked pretty funny with just lines so I added some pencil shading. YEP. >.>

Anyway, Stygma told me that Kassiel loves to feast, party and drink so here she is doing just that. Or maybe she just unlocked an achievement and free beer/chicken was her prize? The world will never know.

Happy Independence Day to all you Americans out there (and happy Wednesday to everyone else). :P
