Hi guys, thanks for the love on this one. I decided to put a couple more hours into just to get it to a place where I was happy with it. Also, realized it wasn't Nausicaa unless I also added Teto to the picture.
Included a ref sheet feat. @trueref.bsky.social and my initial sketch.

Calling this a work-in-progress even though I'm not sure I want to put more time into it. A digital oil #painting of Hayao Miyazaki's Princess #Nausicaa character. Painted in #Rebelle 8 using my new #XP-Pen 14" pen display (great product for $280!)

A local Reno dial-up BBS called "Excaliber's Scabbard"
Spent many teenage hours playing text-based RPGs like Legend of the Red Dragon, and chatting in the chat room.
Also a telnet BBS called YABBS (Yet Another BBS).

Incredible thread. Hugo worthy.
By now, asteroid 2026 Dreadstone has impacted the Indian Ocean, sparking a firestorm not seen on this planet since the K–Pg Extinction Event. Most people just want to be with their families. Here are three ways effective business leaders can leverage targeted KPIs to turn tragedy 😔 into triumph 💪
