Thought it'd be interesting to show how I process my flats?
I'm not great at picking colours directly, so I usually do rough flats in neutral colours and then merge a bunch of blend layers onto them, then I paint on top manually in a normal layer :p

I don't really have a good picture of it since it's usually covered by her bangs but N'ratna uses one of the default tat designs!
In lore it's a marker that members of her pirate crew receive, which is why she always wore her hair in a way that covered it

Rivel was originally called Dolce when I first made her, based on Dolce from Rune Factory 4, and had the same nickname as her, "Dolly".
Altho her name's changed now, I kept Dolly as a nickname because I think it's cute
U can def see the inspo taken from RF4 Dolce, she was my fave chara back then

made a quick graphic for rivel's main hairstyles
there's several others that are for specific moments/events etc or just don't last as long as the "main" ones, but I was too lazy to draw them (+ some of them might get retconned)

I like having non-canon hairstyles for them, but in terms of canon I try to only change it when it makes sense to
N'ratna changes the least, only two times (so far anyways)
Rivel gets a lot of alts bc she likes doing her hair + occasionally it's lore or story related

idk if I'd call myself specifically an xiv artist but I've had the chance to draw some ppls WoLs for comms and I really enjoyed it and would love to do more!!
I'm an xiv player myself so I guess it counts LOL

made a refsheet for one of the secondary characters in Rivel/Ruel's story, Stygian!
say hello to Cordelia!!
She probably won't get any AUs or other stories since she was designed specifically for Stygian, but I really like her so far
