COMMISSION — ‘Etta Howard.’

“A young woman who left behind a duchy in search of a new life in 1890s America. She arrived in the new land with a claim to nothing but a strong will, and with it she build a successful horse trading company.” — description of ‘Etta’ by the client.

Bringing to life people’s character is my favourite part of being an artist, and Etta was no exception. A noblewoman of high birth, she is delightfully sweet and naïve. For this commission, I had a digital avatar to work off of. However, the game’s avatar creation is fairly limited, so I was able to take some creative liberties in how I thought Etta might look.
