Contest Brief

What I would like: front, side & back full body drawing.

Here's the backstory for Magi Blood Adventurer (Name | City where you are from | profession.)

Magi's father was a great bowman famous in blood city (it is a city of hunters, so not a bad name by any means.) He unfortunately perished during a great hunt. Rumors say he was killed after his unique bow somehow got lost in the incident. Mother lives back in blood city with Magi's little brother.

Magi became an adventurer because she was inspired by her father, but also wants to find closure by locating his bow. She has inherited the hunting talents from her father, but suffers from a mild case of narcolepsy which impacts her ability to earn steady money given that she also sends money back to her mother while exploring. Her temperament becomes snappy when she is both hungry and sleepy. When sleepy, she becomes light-head. Otherwise she is a total loner…. Some attributes that behavior to her not wanting to become someone’s burden. Others say that she is simply a stuck up.

She is 5’ 7’’. 18 Years Old. Petite body, but still with some curves (not as much as Hestia from Danmachi.) Black Hair at her shoulder level. I think she has bangs as well. Light pink eye color. Childish face, but eyes not as big as Karakai (Karakai Jōzu no Takagi-san.) She Wears a small headband to secure her hair in place while traveling about. It does have a pink accent because she likes that color.

Clothing wise, she has black undershirt & leggings that covers her entire arms and legs. The jacket (sleeves up to the shoulders) has some faded white and light pink accents. She does show a bit off cleavage and belly. Like the headband, she wears a matching skirt to feel more feminine. She has a leather shoe great for walking great distances.

She also carries a brown bag on her back, a hunting bow that folds on one side and a quiver on the other.

All of her clothes and bag are worn out (e.g. her black undershirt and leggings has some holes in it.) Except for her bag, hunting bows and quivers. She knows that those are her money makers.

Some other inspirations, to name a few, comes from:

-Medieval era with magic aspects that humans cannot inherently posses (but they have tools to use harness and use it.)
-The Witcher III. Specially the clothing from Triss & Ciri. Also, the prowess and adventurous spirit from Ciri.
-Yume (Hai to Gensō no Grimgar) for her looks & character. Still watching this anime so I haven't fully analyzed her.
-Sora Kasugano (Yosuga no Sora) for her timid and innocent looking personality while also not being afraid to seek what her heart desires.
-Megumin (Konosuba) for being one of my top fav anime girl.
-Aqua's skirt (Konosuba) for being cute. Also for how snappy Aqua can be.
-Cosplayer Sakuragun. She's like an angel. Truly adorable. No idea on personality though. Other Cosplayers as well.

See attached image filenames to further peek into my brain. This is my first time asking for freelancer work, so hopefully I provided you with enough information to bring her to life. Have fun :)

--EDIT 12/13

1. I will need full copyright over the winner picture(s). Better to explicitly state it.
2. I will leave up to your imagination, but it is preferable that her quiver is strapped to her body as she should have one free hand to hunt.
3. I will also leave to your imagination how the bow straps to her body.
4. Also, be free to take some liberty based on my description. For instance, I added a new picture that shows another hair style that I did not mention on the original post.

      Howdy! Thanks :)

      I creeped on your profile, and I love the landscape and water of the first illustration under Duel Cash album. Heads up that Magi's images I have in mind is on the modern anime moe realm of things while not being too fantastical or realistic (e.g. Rikka from Chūnibyō.)

      In the next months I am planning to have a redraw of the world map by a professional (instead of me using GIMP mixed with colored pencils.) Will keep your profile on top of my list.

    Hey there. Do you want a digital illustration or is a hand-drawn illustration okay?

      Good Question. Let's do digital illustration as it will make judging process fair for those who have submitted already
