:iconnibblekat:
In Native American lore, there's a malicious little ghost/spirit of a girl who died from disease, and comes down from the mountains to spread sickness and misery to people, especially children.

Here's my rendition of her. I went with green just as a theme, not because she's described necessarily as such... wanted it to fit in with Nimue, a few pictures back.

If you fave, PLEASE comment! :)

Yea. I like the expression/posing too. And the skintone worked out really well, conveying the idea of disease, but also in terms of how you handled it. Nice!

Oooh. Epona. :D yay! I always get zelda music in my head whenever I think of Epona- the original or otherwise.

HAHAA.
I looked up other folks' versions of her on Google Images and DA, and came up with this horse and Link, and having never played Zelda, I was all, "Uh-durr?
"

I like the really saturated yellow-greens, besides the fact that it makes her look diseased it looks like some sort of freakishly awesome moss :iconheeplz:
