Sycophants on velvet sofas, lavish mansions, vintage wine
I am so much more than royal
Snatch your chain and mace your eyes
If it feels good, tastes good, it must be mine
Heroes always get remembered, but you know legends never die
Untraceable, undetectable, and utterly unstoppable, the cat burglar Lady Merci is a veritable legend even among those who know she exists, responsible for single-handedly pulling off jobs that have become nigh-mythical for their audacity and seeming impossibility. If you want something that someone else has and you have access to the right channels, then she just might be able to get it for you, for the right price... but not without having some fun for herself.
A small compilation of WIP shots for this one, demonstrating my process for this specific style—rough undersketch > color block-in, refinement > shading > post effects. This one in particular makes use of Krita's perspective tools for the background.
