Rolling on!
In this exercise, participants create their rendition of the selected character within one week. There are no restrictions on quality or medium (although obviously anything that violates the rules of the forum will be deleted). Participants are encouraged to create new work for this exercise, rather than posting old work. The image provided is a reference only, don't feel limited by any of the details. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Above all, have fun everyone!
Our theme for this week is:
The session begins now and finishes next Monday (U.S. time, it's Tuesday here). No exact time as it is not a contest, rather an exercise. Post your images in this thread, work in progress shots are always encouraged xDRose
The Scarlet Maiden
1025; The Advent
1025 AE (After Exodus)
Rose was born to a wealthy noble family in Argon during a booming era. As she grew up, she had little interest in things that many of her childhood friends loved dearly. She found herself wandering into the barracks and taking up a bow whenever she could.
By the time she was 21, she had skipped out on two planned weddings by her family and had been disowned as a daughter. She loved her family, but they were holding her back from her true calling. There was a new face among the Velorus knights that she had wanted to meet for awhile. He had been warning of an attack on them that had yet to come.
It wasn't until a group of wild and crazed creatures attacked the city that she had a chance to fight alongside the knight. At that point, she proceeded to help the barracks and city guard fight whatever came their way. She and the knight became very close very quickly. As the knight rose through the ranks, she helped out in any way she could.
