....Cause nothing says 'We have fun at Maverick Hunter HQ' like a beach party poster board.

Actually, I imagine that the Maverick Hunters have all kinds of fundraiser and charity events, when there's no major maverick uprising to quell. They've gotta fund that R&D somehow!  And what better way to get people's attention then to showcase all the lovely navigators that work there?  Cindra doesn't mind. Not at all.  It's a rare moment for her to cut loose and relax without having to worry about the next mission or how many lives might soon be at stake. A day at the beach, fun in the sun, charity and donations... what could go wrong?

Well.... Laurel has a different opinion, but she's not in this shoot.

Few people realize that without her helmet, her ears are actually not standard 'human' ears. Her eccentric creator, having a penchant for all things fantasy, gave her ears a bit of a 'point' to them to resemble the magical elves of old high fantasy settings. Fitting... considering her primary method of attack.

Here is my 'official' (read: Qualified) entry for 's 2017 Mega Man [Robot] OC Swimsuit Artjam .  Everyone seems to be responding rather well to these two little creations of mine, and there were more than a few hints to use Cindra for this one, since I so recently introduced her. Well... farbeit for me to disappoint.

The Background is simple. I didn't waste any time on it, because I spent enough time coloring and shading that blasted beauty in the frame.

Still have problems coloring hair and I think I gave it a bit too much 'volume' now that I look at it, but it'll do for now. Unfortunately, there's just something wrong about her right (our left) eye. She was supposed to be looking at the viewer, and my lineart felt right, but when I colored it in it just.... I couldn't get it in the right place.  I tend to have trouble focusing those eyes. She looks kinda... zoned out to me, but maybe you won't see it. I've been staring at this thing for some time. I'm quite happy with the shading on the body though. You can thank :dollwoman: for the swimsuit design. It's not quite like the tube-top featured in awesome fanart she made for me , but I liked it well enough, so I went with it. Call it a tribute.

I see you went with a two color seimsuit like I did! Now I need to edit the ears on mine to make it more accurate. Easily done though! I was thinking Shantae at first when I saw the thumbnail, she definately has a magical appearance for sure!

I went with the two-colored swimsuit BECAUSE you did! XD

And you're not the first person here to compare her to Shantae... which makes me smack my head a little bit, but to be fair, when I first drew her up as a concept, I didn't even know what Shantae was. Honest!

Oh haha! xD

It's a good thing! Shantae is amazing. It's just a coincidence that she happened to resemble her. I wouldn't worry about it! It happens all the time, design a character then suddenly there is one already resembling it. xD

Definitely enticing! Sign me up for the fundraiser if I get to see that beauty in the flesh on the beach! XD

I get what you mean about the hair. I know I'm far from being an expert on drawing hair, but if I might suggest something... I find it easier to shade hair in general by coloring it like a cape. I shade majority of the underside. Then I add details and lighter parts along the edges of the main shadow depending on how voluminous I want the hair to be. Anyway, the hair's not bad. I kind of like the fine little details.

This already looks pretty solid though IMHO. I wonder how much better it could have been if you got exactly what you wanted. Nice to see more from you man!

A $500 donation nets you a date with the beauty of your choice!  Just realize that some would be more willing than others.

I appreciate the input. I'll see what I can do to adapt, but I don't draw many capes, so... well... experience in that regard is limited. 

I guess now that I've gotten some sleep the face doesn't look TOO bad... maybe I was staring at it for too long. She just looked a bit 'fish-eyed' to me and no matter what I did I couldn't seem to fix it.

Thanks for the comment, Imbi! Always appreciated.

That is a pretty sexy swimsuit.
Oh so she has an elf like ears, duly noted.

They're usually covered up by the helmet.

Just what I was anticipating from you eventually.  

IDK, I think the hair looks pretty good to me here (wish I can color hair like this, if I wasn't so lazy ;_.

Otherwise, this is pretty neat pic. Cindra is certainly looking gorgeous . (Looking at her in this pic, she kinda looks and reminds me of Shantae, lol)

Hmm..... now that you mention it....

Geeze... this girl is surrounded by coincidence. I created her long before I even knew what Shantae was!
