But Cy...we can't see all the lovely details on you if we don't!

Cyrus: ....

Poor Cyrus, he has trouble accepting how his body looks (stems from his childhood *won't say more than that*).

I actually started working on this late last night, stopping just before midnight (Happy New Years folks!) and finishing up today. I was having issues with the towel, so I 'forced' my brother to pose while holding one so I could take a picture to use for reference (not full 'actual' pose Cy is in: I'm not that cruel ;). He had trouble keeping a straight face in the pose I did put him in!).

There are anatomy issues...though one of them I didn't notice until after I decided to actually detail the inside of the cowl...which was after I did the final outline *grumble**grumble* Speaking of detailing, I went a bit overboard I think...but I couldn't stand the thought of leaving the inside of the cowl 'empty'.

Don't know if I'll color...I want to, but if there's one thing I hate more than drawing Turian carapaces...it's coloring them.

Ha ha, well siblings (and parents in my case) can be good for many things! :D

I'm glad you coloured this, it turned out beautifully. And the towel is masterfully done as well. :)

You're welcome. :)

I love this gallery of characters of yours! It really is good being able to put a face to the characters we read about, so thank you for sharing them with us.

Considering I don't really 'describe' my turian's, I'd figure it would be helpful to at least do a headshot of the important ones. Though...now I have a side character that wants me to draw him and he's starting to become more important...dammit Besyr!

I'm kind of glad that you don't, espescially since I'm lagging behind right now and have yet to meet them in the story. :) I really miss that a lot when I'm reading fan fics containing OCs. There are a few turians I'd really love to see portrayed 'in the flesh' so to speak!

Ha ha! :) By the way, do you prefer dark-skinned turians or more paler skinned ones? Just curious. If I didn't ask that already.

I think it's partly becaue I have a hard time figuring out how to make them different from each other: only one I have actually discribed in any way is the main villain in Chap 9 I believe. Hehe, if there are any of mine you want to 'see' let me know and I'll see what I can do ;).

I don't really have a preference thb....

You mean as in making their bios? That can be really hard, I know. I only tried a couple myself ever and it took forever thinking something out.

I started reading chapter 6 last night and immediately felt I need to re-read the other five again. It's been a while since I read them and I read probably ten-twenty fics a week, at least, so I really need a recap.

Me neither, I love all turians. :p

Nah, pictures like I did with some of them already. But yeah, bios are hard to write (I haven't even finished Zeno's bio yet and his story is done!).

My goodness, I really like this piece... you recently put down in a description of one of your recent deviations that you were focused on giving Cyrus an androgynous appearance. This new interpretation of him really does a good job of emphasizing that. :) The curvy hips, the small cowl, the smaller fringe, it all really does give it off well. :D I have to say, he REALLY does look rather... appealing here.

Excellent work, can't wait to see his full figure minus the towel. (no sexual humor intended) ;)
