Guest Art Feature: Formal Night Locust and Kalara by Raeliyah

I've been very busy with convention prep and projects, which has meant no time to continue writing on the beta draft!  This makes me a very sad panda.

Luckily, Sam aka. Raeliyah has done more amazing art of Kalara and her present day bodyguard, Night Locust, that I can share with you all in the meantime!



I just adore the detail Sam put into their outfits, like the embroidery in Night's vest and the flames in Kalara's armlet, as I'm always talking about how she enjoys flame motifs to reflect her Southern heritage.  She drew a very attractive Night Locust as well.  Very lovely job on his face!  I haven't drawn this character much yet (aside from that one time), so seeing another artist take on this character has helped me form a better mental image of him for myself, also.

You can see more of Sam's work at her tumblr and read more of her amazing Exalted fiction here, as she's written some fun stories in the setting, also!

I hope to get back to this project soon.  I just need to survive DragonCon and other deadlines!  In the meantime, if you haven't caught up on the beta draft of The Uncrucified yet, you can do so here.  Happy reading!
