Description
This is a true multi-media piece that I intend to add a watercolor background too but rather than risk ruining the piece entirely, I figured I would post this version of it and later, if the watercolor works out, I will add that scan to this. Anyways, here we have Mira again, flexing her motherly guns. What is super unique about this piece is I used Chameleon skin tones on her!! If you're not familiar with them, they're a new, weird alcohol marker like Prismacolor or Copics that has a unique blending system that allows you to tone down the ink or add another ink to the mixture to produce very unique effects. As someone who cannot for the life of him, understand how the colorless blenders work, this has been a great asset. Mira's skin is entirely Chameleon markers. Her clothing are my Prismacolor markers. I applied some colorless blender over the greys to create that patchy effect. I have no idea if I'm using it right... Did the same thing with her brassiere and thong. Also, used the wrong brown, whatever, wasn't paying attention. I used old Mira's color, rather than second costume Mira's color, whatever, big deal, you'd never notice.

I also added a little to her costume. The red ribbons around her wrists, the more ornate armor on her left glove, metal rings around her brassiere straps, so worth. Mira's hair is also unique. I used a layer of Prismacolor cream colored marker, applied some other yellows, blended, then let it dry before applying a whole host of colored pencil across it to create what you see. Do you like it? Can you see the depth and direction her strands are flowing? I also added a little, teeny white dot of gel pen to each eye to produce that reflective effect, this was after my best friend hounded me over it, mind you. I also used red metallic gel pen for the beads on the bird skull, and a quick pass with my nectar colored pencil for the linea nigra and there you have it.

Also, if anyone notices, Mira is a tad on the thicc side in this piece. That was NOT intentional, nor did I notice till she was nearly fully colored. I kinda like it, Mira's still petite, big bellied, tough, long nosed, but now a little...thicc. Love that fucking term.
