The Heretic

This is Naleed, one of my main characters for an unofficial Star Wars novel I'm writing. Since the novel is a work in progress, I don't want to reveal too much about her, maybe apart from that she is an ex-Jedi who left the Order in a result of a severe clusterf*ck, not long before the end of the Clone Wars. The clusterf*ck involved her fallen Jedi master (depending of your level of nerdiness, you may or may not remember General Krell from TCW season 5), two conflicted (and powerful) Umbaran families, a Separatist deserter, and a few other parties that she is not yet aware of. Anyway, they all get mixed and shaken well, and they end up having legitimately hard time trying to figure out whom of the others should they kill.

I don't feel that drawing people comes out as well as making jewellery for me, but in fact this has always been what I wanted to do in terms of artwork. The fact that I cared so much was the reason it was kinda outside of my comfort zone to finish character drawings and post them online. They felt too sacred to me to risk screwing up in the process of finishing, or to be unsatisfied with them after drawing a few more and improving my skill and ability to see the mistakes. I had to learn to stop hating my old drawings, and to always be able to see good things in them to finally accept the natural order of progress. As for now, I'm open for constructive criticism; lines too stiff? Value range too small? Anatomy off? Name not weird enough for SW universe? I'll gladly hear it all
