Nina Kain

When Nina Kain ruled the town, the people, who weren’t used to monarchy and even more so to pristine magic, watched with awe and fear how a demonic queen can rule. It seemed that a figure of a divine woman with a sweeping wave of dark hair is soaring in the sky, her exquisite features wrapped in clouds; she seemed to be a massive monument of an ancient sovereign. They said she was almighty. They said that at night, in her true form, – her head touching the sky, her figure slim and lithe as an ivy branch and as the lightning, – she walks around town, lightly moving her pale shoulders, and takes what is hers, but gives with godly generosity what otherwise mortal men could have under no circumstances.

I worked on this for 9 months. It's not perfect, but I'm proud of it, and at the same time, I can't stand it anymore. I'll go sleep now.


<sub>Random notes:
- materials: pencil sketch, Photoshop and Paint Tool SAI
- the background is some NASA image, I'm gonna find it and credit it a bit later on
- this is very much inspired by ~ViaEstelar, who fills me with fanart-related envy on a regular basis
- I originally wanted to make the town perfectly accurate, but after a few in-game hours of flying around and taking screenshots, I still didn't have a good enough view, so I decided to improvise instead
- I need a faster computer.
- does working for a long time on an image really make it better?
- comments are needed before my self-esteem implodes.</sub>
