Great job on capturing the face!
I like the feathers.

Interesting colors on her, the black contrasts the white like the golden orange contrasts the purple. The perspective of the nose is done well, its a tricky angle but it looks natural.

  Thank you very much! This was difficult to pull off!
  
  Both because of the feathers on her eyebrows and in her hair, as well as the fact that I wanted her to FEEL Haughty. ^_^

  "Haughty" is certainly a word I'd use to describe her! Are the feathers on her brows something she puts on, or is she of a race with bird aspects?

  She is a Biata. Mix of Stone Elves and Gryphons, per Alliance LARP lore. ^_^

  Yeah! I enjoy the lore around this LARP. I'm part of the Plot team for Oregon chapter, and it's a lot of fun to write in this world. ^_^

  Oregon chapter? Is that a LARP group or a set of lore? I don't know much about LARP myself, I've gotten a bit curious haha.

  Oh, Oregon Chapter is the local Alliance LARP group. There's also a Seattle Chapter, a SF Chapter, etc.
  Each is a self-contained game space that is considered to be on different continents or islands in the same overarching World.
  So the lore is the same Nationally. But the Chapters run different stories.
  It's like how Pathfinder is a game system with a bunch of agreed on races, but each gaming group runs a different story that doesn't affect other gaming groups' stories. ^_^

  That's a cool system, and it makes sense given the nature of LARP!

  Yeah!
  It's pretty freaking awesome fun!
  I can't wait to get back to it when the world stops ending!
  We've been keeping people invested with online RP, but I want the Live Action part of LARP back, darn it!
