Commission sketches - Istas (complete) by rachelillustrates Commission sketches - Istas (complete) by rachelillustrates
Much more finalized design work for :icongeekhyena:'s commission of Istas, the amazing Goth Loli Waheela from Seanan McGuire's "InCryptid" series.

I am having waaaaaay too much fun with this already. She's a complete joy to draw. So many ruffles :heart:

Seriously once this is done you should send Seanan the whole shebang.  On tumblr, even^_^ She will squee from the rooftops.  And so will my girlfriend once she sees this!

I'm sure she'll love it (and so will Kristina once the art arrives in Seattle). I am glad you enjoyed this!

Thank you thank you! And SO glad to hear she's in the first book, I haven't gotten to read it yet but I'm already in love with her from the short stories on Seanan McGuire's website.
