09-05-2016 - Elaida

"Elaida was a handsome woman rather than beautiful, and the sternness on her face added maturity to her ageless Aes Sedai features. She did not look old, yet Egwene could never imagine her looking young." (source)

Well, I don't know if I managed to protray that with this sketch, but one thing's for sure - she was the perfect choice after the decision to focuse more on faces and less on clothes. "Go on. Make the cut deeper. I ran out of Accepted to torture, anyway."  

Strange, but I don't think I'll be able to do make it more realistic by colouring it. I guess we'll have to see.

Elaida do Avriny a'Roihan is a character from The Wheel of Time series, and a photo of Marcia Cross served as a reference. Even though I feel I changed the features quite a bit, I still think she'd be a pretty good actress for Elaida.
