LITTLE MARY (Patreon)

Hello, friends!

Today, I'm excited to introduce Mary, the mother of Jesus, a new character that brings something truly special to our collection while keeping the cute and playful style that makes our designs so recognizable.

A little history: Mary has been one of the most frequently depicted figures in art for nearly 2,000 years. Her traditional blue mantle became especially popular in medieval European art, when blue pigments were extremely valuable and often reserved for the most important figures in religious paintings.

For this design, I decided to try something a little different!

Instead of using my usual articulation system, I wanted to preserve the overall shape and appearance of the character as much as possible. That's why the body, head, and veil are printed separately, allowing the figure to maintain a cleaner, more harmonious look.

This approach also opens up more possibilities for mixing and matching colors, making it easier to create your own unique version of Mary.

I'm really happy with how this little character turned out, especially the combination of her gentle expression, flowing veil, and simple details.

Also, I've printed some in different scales, the smallest at 70% and the biggest at 150%.

I hope you love this design as much as I enjoyed creating it!

I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. And of course, stay tuned... there's more to come!
