This was a bonus sketch for Kid Komix. He paid me in advance for the Mary Jane commission and it took me years before I ever talked to him again. I knew he liked Red Sonja, so I did this as a sort of apology.

I kinda like her solemnity. Red Sonja is always drawn so angry or sexy, I kinda liked just drawing her a little lost. Sadly, her chainmail is rubbish.

I love the vibe of this piece. Really beautiful.
The chainmail? It might have looked better if you have put in the extra hour (you lazy bum!), but it looks decent enough.

Thank ya, Yatz!

I am indeed a lazy bum. :)
I definitely see the AH-esque proportions coming out on this pic. Did you happen to use a pic of Caitlin as reference? I'm really diggin' it. :)

I *did* use an AH reference for this pic.

I used a portrait sketch he did of Malcolm Reynolds.

I kid you not. That was all I used.
I'm a Serenity fan, too, and I think I know the pic you speak of. Still, please don't crush my dreams by saying the model of this was a dude. Dreams are fragile, you know. :)

No no. I looked at AH reference on the Sonja costume (more to see what she wears as opposed to how he drew it) and the Mal portrait is a little sketch he did. It's Mal, looking the other way. The emotion of it is what I referenced. The Mal had no body, just his head. So calm down, you're not gay. :P
Another lovely and powerful piece of work. :)

Somehow that does show her as a bit of a loner and a heroine.
