Commission: Tylara Donella

Age: 20
Hair: naturally, very pale blonde
Eyes: deep blue
Skin: naturally pale


Clothing: She tends towards
tight fitting clothing so that it stays out of her way. Typically
leather or cotton materials, she has a few pouches on her belt also.
I’m thinking of a more western than fantasy style for her and her
world, kind of like Firefly/Serenity, Trigun, or Cowboy Bebop.
That frontier world feeling. She does always wear her gun, in
a holster, on her hip. Typically a couple of knives/daggers too.

Occupation: Trained as a
shooter, assassin or guard, she now works as a mercenary for the most
part. Her perfect job would actually be to be a historian/researcher,
but she doesn’t really see enough money in that to support herself,
at least not when the only people who could hire her, hate her.

Personality: Headstrong,
determined, and refuses to be proven wrong even if it is thrown in her
face. She tends to keep people at a distance and retreats into
her work and solitude. The only person who can even begin to drag
her out of her shell is her best friend/partner Jord, who knows her
far better than she wants him to. She just got her sister back
after thinking her sister was dead for four years, and she’s having
a lot of trouble coming to terms with someone constantly in her life
and space.

C. gave me alot to work with here and I was very glad for that. She was so patient with me over the holidays! I'm glad I was able to take my time with this portrait and really put some care into it. C and I met at Anime Nebraskon and she was really excited, it seemed, to hire me. I'm glad she's been pleased with what I've shown her so far! I hope she really likes the final portrait.
