Description
This is Xanthippe by !Second of his fairy amazon characters, Xanthippe is a gladiator in the Roman tradition. In the references, she used a trident, but since Xuxa already had a spear, I opted to give her a sword to accompany the net that she was also previously depicted with.
Had a slight adjustment in my painting style, using the blur tool a bit to mix my colors in a bit more. I prefer a brushstroke-heavy style to my rendering, but what do you guys think with this?

That's a nice look for her upcoming promotional poster at the coluseum.
And she's equally skilled with her sword as she is the other assorted weapons of mayhem that she can get her hands on.
I definatley like her expression as you can see that she's at least planning to enjoy herself.
