This is my latest commi$$ion job and ended up being a pretty fun project. The buyer wanted to get his girl friend a custom of her RPG character from a game called “Exalted”. The character, Rischa Vale, is described as: “a rebellious pirate who yells a lot, stands on her principles, and gets everybody in trouble. Rough-tough brick type, she takes a licking and keeps on ticking. She's also the group's 'face', and by the end of the game, led a navy of fierce pirate warriors in the service of her god, the Unconquered Sun." I tried to stay as close to the reference illustrations as possible but took some license here and there. Biggest departure was the hair color, as the buyer wanted blue locks vs. lavender.

Recipe was a Madame Hydra/Viper body with a Princess Ariel head (Thundarr). Tons of reworked fodder and sculpting to create everything else.
