Challenge #28: Makeover

Title: Shuos Khiaz
Fandom: Machineries of Empire
Artist: [personal profile] yhlee
Rating: G
Medium: ink
Characters: Heptarch Shuos Khiaz
Summary: Khiaz seated.
Content Notes: This is a redraw of an ink sketch from 2012. This time around, [personal profile] niqaeli agreed to model for me (so I would have reference for the foreshortening, which is very wonky in the original) in an approximation of the original pose, and I used the photo as a basis for the sketch and then the inks. IIRC, the original was inked using a fude nib fountain pen. This time I used a dip pen and Dr Ph Martin's colored India ink (Crimson) plus a Pentel Pocket Brush Pen for the black areas.




Here's the sketch before I inked it up:


And here's the original from eight years ago:
