[WIP] Niketa Chilling (2 versions) (Patreon)

Scribble of Niketa in her classic quasi-military garb. I included a version with exposed ears and not wearing the headscarf. There's some lore behind all that but for another day.

This is the first time I've drawn her in a while even though I used to draw her all the time in High School, often as a kind of "warmup"... but regardless she is forever my main character! Her last name is "Javanshir", if you're unaware of that, heh.

Niketa is the main character in a storyline I call Desert Snow. Most if not all of my characters canonically reside in its world... even giraffe mom herself. (Within some drawings of her, there are easter-egg implications that she's in it). One of my personal resolutions for this year is to actively draw more material for Desert Snow, but that has been a goal forever. However, coincidentally there have recently been people asking about Niketa and the storyline in general, so it's definitely going to be a thing to work on again!
