I’ve been looking to a lot of sources for inspiration lately in reference to X’issi’s Sky Pirate attire. One piece by @paprikot​ really stood out to me and I was so inspired that I started this piece as practice work to learn how to draw clothing better. However, in the end I was so thrilled and excited by it that I really wanted to post it. So I talked to Paprikot about posting it and they turned out to be the most amazingly sweet artist. They even helped me out with concept art for a new outfit in X’issi’s future. However, I’ve gained their permission to post this piece and I just want to say thank you so much for allowing me to.

You guys should definitely check out @paprikot‘s work. They are an amazingly talented artist and their blog is also full of awesome guides and artistic information to help aspiring artists!

Thanks again! ♥

I talked a little about the events pertaining to this piece on my personal blog here if you’re interested in hearing more. This was a wonderfully educational piece for me, and I really appreciate the sweetheart that Paprikot has been in helping me with my art and guiding me with encouraging pointers. ♥
