The alternative title to this is "Art Through Adversity".

I am really proud of how this portrait came out! Not only is it the best example of character headshot/bust portraits, but it is the first official image of Gwenevere in Anthro form. I'm really happy with how much better I believe I have gotten with directional lighting and shadowing as well as texturing, which takes more time than just having flat colors but it's becoming more and more worth it.

I created this in 2020 during the stupid pandemic, caring for a sick relative, and lots of family drama. I hated life as Gwen's expression here clearly shows. I still kinda dislike my life right now but at least things are not as bad. In my lore, Gwen is a rich and powerful business woman in an 80s utopia on a far off planet of other creatures. I very much enjoy power suits.
