As promised, here's an upcoming character (Patreon)

Her name's Varvara (for now, it may change as I continue working on her) and she's an Empusa. They're a shapeshifting cryptid from Greek mythology that're always female and have one copper leg.

In order to try and challenge myself and go out of my comfort zone more, I've decided to work with a body type I've never used before. I've also made it so her copper leg is now a copper-coloured prosthetic (forgive any mistakes on it, I've been looking up modern leg prosthetics online to get the design right).

If any of you happen to know a good guide and/or resource for referencing to draw accurate prosthetics I'd love to see them!

As for Varvara herself, she's a paleontologist that specializes in prehistoric mammals with a special interest in extinct animals (more modern ones included). Empusa are said to often shapeshift into dogs, so I kind of stretched that out to have an excuse to give her a thylacine form. I've always wanted a thylacine character, but could never figure out how to go about it.

She can technically shapeshift into other prehistoric and extinct animals, but thylacine are her favourite.

I need to continue to work on building her character, and refining this sketch into a proper reference sheet, but I'm happy with how she's coming along. Hope you guys like her too!
