Flirt

More of my miqo'te, and her first (of probably many to come) topless pic.

Here I refined her design a bit once again, with the most noticeable change being the marks and the ears. I wanted the marks to be more seamless/natural looking, so I did them a bit differently without lines and with a textured brush so they have more of a tribal look to them, like paint. And I also changed he pattern a bit.

Then for the ears I realized I love this look with them being mostly black just like the hair tips, I mean Ive been doing it since the first one but I played into it more here.

For the rest, the thing that took me the longest here was figuring out what I wanted her breasts to look like. I knew I wanted them to be smaller than the au ra like an average B cup, with large dark areolae, and I also knew I wanted her to have piercings because its something I like that doesnt really fit with the au ra, so I get the chance to do it here instead. And then I guess the tan lines also play into it, I think they fit really well with her general look and vibe.

Then one thing I noticed while coloring was, the green from the nails wasnt enough on its own because of the hand being at the bottom of the pic, so I added that extra jewelry with the emerald necklace and earrings to have some nice green at the top too. Its not something that will always be there but it worked nicely here.

Lastly the expression is also something I spent a long time on, because I wanted her to have that sultry yet playful look with a hint of a lip bite. One thing I was especially careful about was the eyes too, especially the general shape (which is why I made the bangs see through so they wouldnt block them), and also trying to make the iris more detailed than usual. You can always tell it worked because of her eyes getting your attention first, despite her being topless.

But yeah thats it for this one. This week I didnt get much done because of Star Rail 3.0, going through the story and I also pulled "The Herta" so Ive been having a lot of fun playing her and trying out different teams. I have something in mind for her as well but not sure if Ill have it done before the end of her banner. If I do, maybe it could even be the next post, but we will see.
