Type of art: Photoshop Title: A Hero Fights Alone Rating: G Series: Song of the Lioness Summary (if applicable): This is the way I see Alanna as she first leaves for Corus hiding under her cloak from Coram. Well, I am definately a newbie. Healthy critisism is welcome, as are new challenges. I hope you like this. i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii199/dreamernlm/allana3.jpg

This is lovely! I really adore the fact you picked an atypical face for Alanna instead of the popular narrow nose, fine bone structure that's the common perception of beauty right now. It really gives her that stubborn umph without turning her into a delicate beauty.

Thank you both. The reason I chose that face is because what is says in the books about Alanna is that she is short and stocky. I believe that in the Immortals Emperor Mage when she is dressed to meet Kaddar at the very begining one of the men(Numair?) mentions to Daine that she is beautiful in her own way but not the way people are normally percieved as beautiful.
Not to mention if she was one of those delicate little things or a great beauty she could not have passed convincingly for a boy for eight years.

Whoa. I really like the rugged, tough feel that I get from seeing this of Alanna. Very fitting.
