Hi all. Suppose I should give Nimbuan here a bit of an introduction. Nimbuan is female, age unknown, and is somewhere around 5'5". She's a stalker type that uses the ice/water element to subdue her enemies in the form of a claw type artifact weapon on each hand. Pictured below is a (very) rough idea of what her clothing is like, which I'll refine and repost sometime tomorrow. I'm going for an extremely layered look, which Nimbuan uses to disguise her actions/weapons/body language/etc. The layers will consist of several ornate strips of hanging cloth under her top robe, and her body suit will be wrapped with several sturdy strands of beaded twine. I'm going for something very exotic... She's going to look like a hybrid of a Drow and an Indian (as in someone from India, not a Native American). This naturally means dark skin, but her hair will remain white... Comments and criticisms are more than welcome.

Interesting back story and character description so far, the color scheme for her skin sounds very Atlantian! I’ll be tuning in for the updates just to see how you pull off what you described. Good luck BlueSaved.:)

Thank you for the encouragement. I hope not to disappoint...

Here's the body outline and the ideas i have for coloring thus far... Once i figure out all of the little details on her clothes, I'll start working on different perspectives. Also, I'd like to apologize for not keeping my own promise time for uploading this. Work is trying to kill me...

[BlueSaved]

Well, so much for not disappointing... It seems I won't be able to finish in time. That, and I haven't been posting development sketches as I go along, which is against contest rules. Thank you for your support, Marcus, and thank you to everyone who took the time to view this. Nimbuan will be fully rendered at some point, but for now, may the best artist win.
