i decided to put more elements of the traditional maria clara on her to make her look more filipino and a little less of an RPG-ish character, to create a balance of sorts. then i trimmed the hair short to add a little spunk (and a little pagkamataray ) plus if you squint your eyes you'd see that her guns look more like real guns than it did on previous deviations haha YEAH!
i've been dealing with this piece for a long time. so long that i was already thinking of adding little changes to the design as i went along finishing this. it gets a little frustrating at times, no? haha
