This time Liry ask me to draw the goddess Isis taking a bath in a tube. As always Liry uppers the challenge asking for a background (am still working on it BTW) so i am continuing my researching about how ancient Egypt used to take their bath, Seems they didn't bath completely naked, nor use bubbles bath or even using a tube, they used this kind of tunic of some sort of see through material, used a pool and also milk herbs and other spices to clean their body, all of that i am trying to incorporate here.
But this scrap is only to show the pose of Isis in the bath tube, i mean pool, i decide to make her in a playful but relaxing stance, like enjoying herself, or maybe giggling silly of something she did before, a bit different form what Liry reference pick looked like.
Oh yes! There 2 elements i wanted to keep from Lirys character sheet, the crown in the back who has no sort of attachment point, it's simply floating there like some sort of supernatural halo... and the wings, which i think are of the same sort of nature as they simply are there but don't seem to come out from her body, like protecting her? keeping this two elements will link it to the original character, and also helps to give the motive of the pick a logical point of view as nobody bath with jewelry on, and don't think isis will leave around the floor her gear cloth, i mean, that is not something a goddess will do IMHO ^^U
Anyway Liry, please give me your thoughts. again i couldn't make her less voluptuous, but i try to make her not as voluptuous as my usual drawings, still i like how this one is coming out. ^_^ any suggestions, changes or what not? please let me know, am all ears.
Isis line art done. hope you like it Liry. :3
Even though Liriel didn't ask me to change anything in particular I change the position of her arms, to one that make her look like hugging her breast and squishing them together to her body.
Another thing i wanted to play with, was her size if we compare it with the background, you see, goddess in ancient Egypt paintings are represented as giants if we compare them with the normal humans, so i try to play a little with the background and make her look in appearance bigger in size, if it doesn't look like it, well doesn't really matter ^^U.
and final preview in colors!
After I study the reference pic Liry gave me could see the symbol was attached to the collar was using, because she is naked it had to go, BUT! as I find in various ancient Egypt art, it seem Isis has that symbol over her head in each representation of her, by force it has to be included ...so i put it like this.instead :3 you can say is the naked version of the deity symbol.
Anyway Liry hope you like it, I do, in fact i am very happy you commission me to draw Isis, years ago i draw Bastet so with Isis is the second Egyp goddess i draw.
