Name: Dahlia
Theme Song: True Mirror (Guitar Ver.) - Motoi Sakuraba ---> [link]

I know what you're thinking
My Original Character for Claymore.... Heck no! Haha I know no matter how you look at Dahlia, you'll say "She's a Claymore!!!!!!"

Being inspired by the nicely-designed character and well-written storyline of Claymore and wanted to make some kinda tribute to this story... I did an integration between Unchained's universe and Claymore's. In fact the link between the 2 universe is so thin I can even say that Dahlia is irrelevant to Claymore's story except that her origin has something to do with Claymore

... and her weapons aren't claymore sword either and also the symbol on her neck is something more than a identity symbol, it's more like a ... device.

Real world works are so busy I didn't even have time to polish this piece, but well ... this is just a concept, so I think I could get away with it

I don't know why, but I like to create female characters with oversized weapons

Tell me what you think

FYI: True Mirror by Motoi Sakuaraba is from Baten Kaitos game for the GC, one of the best sountrack in RPG games since FFVI (old-school) and Xenosaga (new-school)

She looks like she means business. I really like her outfit;it's fitting and flattering and it doesn't show everything. And those are very elaborate swords.
She looks like she has an aura or glow going on, which is rather intriguing.

Wow~ Thanks for your kind comment and detailed observation!

I'm still working on her character, but you got it right that
she means business Dahlia isn't a human, she's rather an
experimental (biological) weapon which resembles human and later
on team up with human. So I'd say she's serious character but
since she doesn't really know about human's social behavior/ culture
she tends to do funny thing (I would say that she's a little like a
cute-looking but 'wild' feline).

Despite my recent 'sexy' picture of her I made during the Halloween,
she will be one character in my story who doesn't reveal much of her
skin to the public.

You're very welcome.Rather like the Borg Seven from Voyager.Still learning how to be human in a way.
But I always get a big kick out of scantily clad women fighters, regardless of the genre. Like they don't think women are going to have an equal opportunity at getting shot at, stabbed or whatever.
She still has a good look about her and even if she wears body armor(or even if she needs it) she has a rather subtle sex appeal that doesn't get in the face. That makes a more interesting character.

I like her designs! The hairstyle is pretty special, and those swords are also cool! It would be great to see more of her in future ^^.

Yeah man, i dig the style on Dahlia,but the weapon design is stealing the show. this one really reminds me of Go Nagai's works.keep rockin'

Thanks man!
Glad you like her, swords stealing the show??? now this would be a big problem since the swords are mechanical, they can change forms too... may be I need to tone the design down a bit? (or tone down the color?)

Go Nagai??? Wow that is one master I still have a long way

Thanks again!
