Thank you for waiting!
From the rough and color rough I shared earlier, here is the completed version. 🖌☺🎨
As an adventurer exploring ancient ruins, she’s just made an exciting discovery—a golden lamp in her hand.At her feet rest her trusty tools, a well-worn map, and a backpack that tells the story of her journey so far.
The background is bathed in dappled sunlight, creating a mystical atmosphere while keeping that signature Shantae brightness and adventurous spirit.Overall, I aimed to capture both the thrill of finding treasure and the charm of Shantae as a relic hunter.
As always, I’m sharing the high-resolution version exclusively with my patrons. ✨
(And maybe we found more than just the lamp…In this warmer version, her outfit shows a little more, and Shantae is looking extra shiny from the heat. 🥵)
Please take your time to enjoy every detail, from the texture of her outfit to the little items tucked away in the scene!
Behind the Scenes ✨
While working on Relic Hunter Shantae, I mistakenly thought the skill “Pikeball” was called “Spikeball” — and ended up drawing the wrong version! Since I decided not to use it, I’m sharing that scrapped illustration here instead. 💜
Thank you, as always, for your kind support—it means the world to me! 🥰🙏
