Palutena - Kid Icarus: Uprising

Last year in Summer, Palutena won a poll on my Patreon and thus I started working on a FanArt featuring her (which made me very happy, as Palutena happens to be one of my favourite fictional characters).

Unfortunately due to my master thesis project taking up a lot of time, I had to postpone working on this illustration for a long time, while during fall and winter other projects kept me busy. I am terribly sorry for taking this long with this piece in specific, however, I believe that putting a little more effort into it really paid off. I feel that my shading has improved in the past few months, as initially I was going for a simple cell shading for this piece. Around New Year I have actually started working on a new sketch for a Palutena fanart, as I was no longer satisfied with how a few things about the anatomy looked like in this piece.
