Morrigan #darkstalkers #art
A rough illustration of Morrigan from Capcom’s Darkstalkers franchise. She is facing left in a midair pose, her left knee raised to her bosomsome chest which is barely contained by the dark bodice over her purple, bat-patterned tights. She has long flowing seafoam green hair, and 2 pairs of purple bat wings: a large set on her back, and smaller wings coming out of the top of her head as if from a Halloween headband. Her arms are relaxedly outstretched for balance, the biceps covered by a ring of feathers attached to her leotard, and the forearms covered by pale orange sleeves.

She is lightly smiling to the viewer, and wears a short brown jacket over her green & yellow unitard. I’ve also drawn her wearing long yellow gloves that are bound near the elbow.
