Here is my finished Y'shtola. This one was actually just a fan art, not a commission... After finishing Aerith I was in the mood to draw another popular character and I thought Id just go for it since I had been wanting to draw her in the shadowbringers dress for a long time.

The biggest difference from the sketch is the addition of stockings because at some point through the coloring I felt like something was off and the bare legs look wasnt working as well as I thought. I think its because they were taking too much attention due to how they contrasted with the dress. So after adding stockings, since they are also pretty dark and blend more with the dress, the focus shifted back to the head as is always my goal, and it fixed the problem (plus they just look good on her).

I also have no idea why I picked this background... Originally I just wanted to do something that looked like Rak'tika with her sitting on a tree, but then I thought of adding the big full moon behind her because its a kind of scene Ive always liked. Then it was a matter of doing some nice color play with the leaves being in direct contrast with the feathers on her hair/dress, which is actually what makes the whole composition work. For a while it looked really boring and I had no idea why, until I made the leaves orange and then it was like "woah, this is it". Its amazing how much the right combo of colors can change a pic.

And yeah, I wanted to something sensual but without any nudity, because thats usually my favorite approach when drawing popular characters rather than player ones, and her dress is just perfect for this kind of thing since you just have to lower it a bit.

Anyway, it was nice drawing her again after over 2 years, and doing a full body pic this time.

Lastly Ive also included a sketch of the last commission I did, with a slave/submissive miqo'te, so those who like those themes will enjoy that one a lot. Cant wait to post it since Im really happy with it.

SE has some pretty damn good artists so I wouldnt go that far but they would also never draw Y'shtola in such a sensual pose so I have that going for me, lol and yes, the "sass" is definitely a huge part of her appeal, especially with how she has been written lately in the shadowbringers story

I'll keep my excitement to a minimum. Yes, I'm also a Y'Shtola fan. I honestly think that you made her more attractive than Square Enix could. Love the cleavage, love the stockings, love the sensual tease/coverage that she may or may not be wearing garments under her dress. And I love the background for her. I'm a sucker for a lot of things with full moon backgrounds. So with the Sorceress, I think it fits really well. Just the tease of everything here, I feel she is at her best in your style of artistry. And since it is Y'Shtola... there isn't much to say. I positively adore her. And even in your style, I can say that she is all attractive and adorable, beautiful as well. So much better here. With the smile and her pale eyes. Yes, I love pale girls. But something about a smart and sexy lady like her that is also a little sassy... She is the best of all the Scions. And you make her hold that title.

The stockings are indeed a great addition (honestly, i was already thinking she wears some lol it just fit her so well). I'm so happy you did Y'shtola, and with this outfit, i really it. Her face is sooo sweet <3 Amazing work Sora, thank you ! Can't wait also for the slave kitty too, it looks stunning and tastefull as always :)

really like what you did with yshtola, my favorite ff14 character by far. also love the moon in the background, looks really cool.

Id like to think its the result of taking my time with each pic plus drawing only when Im really in the mood, so focusing completely on quality over quantity

You have just been on fire for the past few months. Orange leaves were the perfect call for this.

Same, not big into the whole bdsm thing but I like this kind of aesthetic and on a miqo'te it looks really cute... and yes she has a great hairstyle, super long hair ftw

Soranamae

Glad you think so, the stockings were indeed a great addition and Y'shtola just feels like the kind of character who would wear some anyway

Soranamae

Wow this is fantastic, huge fan of the stockings, pose, and background. Everything blends so nicely together. Great job!

Finally... Love it and how it looks and the addition of stockings is a ten cause I like that lol and I think I can imagine how her legs without them would draw the attention a bit compared to this because of everything in this one, but like I said this not only fits her more, I like it more hahaha. Worth the wait. No to mention like you said, finally full body Y'shtola. Also really like the BG which fits perfectly with her... just yeah 10/10 lol. While I am not into slave stuff, some submission is not bad but I see this is a bit different lol. Still, looking forward to seeing it in full and gotta say, thats really nice hairstyle on that miqo.
