I LOVE MY GIRLLLL
Reference art for my OC! Information under the cut and you may draw her.
Siomara Laura-Lucía de la Cruz Cárdenas
Siomara was born in Medellín, the heart of the Antioquia region of New Granada, but was raised by a Templar couple in the Caribbean coast—specifically its capital, Cartagena.
Aside from growing up learning a long lasting taste for music and the sea, Siomara felt that there was a difference between herself and the world she lived in.
In 1740, she became caught up in the Assassin-Templar conflict as the Brotherhood came searching for the Staff of Saint Thomas, a Piece of Eden shared by the Cartagena and Bogotá Spanish governances.
Together with her newfound brothers from across all walks of life, Siomara discovers the meaning of power, which isn’t found in gold, or order, but in the freedom to run from the storm.

Jacob and Dottie - XMen Edition
You're all that I can trust
Facing the darkest days
Everyone ran away
But we're gonna stay here, we're gonna stay here
Ahhhhhh, ahhhhh
I know you're scared tonight
Ahhhhhh, ahhhhh
I'll never leave your side
When it all falls, when it all falls down
I'll be your fire when the lights go out
When there's no one, no one else around
We'll be two souls in a ghosttown
When the world gets cold
I'll be your cover
Let's just hold
Onto each other
When it all falls, when it all falls down
We'll be two souls in a ghosttown
"GHOSTTOWN" - MADONNA
SO.
A few days ago, I asked on IG how my mutuals would have liked to see me drawing Jacob and Dottie again (since, you know, it has been since March that I last drew them together in any capacity).
And dearest @memoriesofafallen suggested me to draw them as X-MEN.
Needless to say, my brain starting going like crazy, because if there is something that I absolutely adore in this world, it's X-Men.
They were the first comics I ever read (all thanks to my older cousin who was the one to actually introduce me to the fandom with the old game "Children of the Atom") and to be honest, the only Marvel comics I ever read (I much preferred DC when I was younger).
So, when dearest Tofu suggested me to draw them as X-Men, the brain started brainrotting right there and then.
BUT.
I was faced with a dilemma: drawing them as my favourite X-Men pairing OR as the characters that Jacob and Dottie resembled the most?
Because depending on that, I would have to draw them as very different characters (a huge cookie to the one that would guess how I would have drawn them if I went with the similarity road lolol)
And Tofu suggested me to go with my favourite ship.
SO NOW HERE YOU HAVE JACOB AND DOTTIE AS GAMBIT AND ROGUE BECAUSE FML.
Only, of course, I had to change Rogue!Dottie's hair, so I inverted the colours lololol
Baby me was smitten with Mr. LeBeau when I saw it on tv in '94, and absolutely love Rogue for how tough she was (why do you think I have a white streak in my hair lol)and you can BET YOUR HAT THAT I JUMPED TO THE OCCASION AND STARTED TO SHIP ROGUE AND GAMBIT (we will absolutely pretend that AoA never happened. Nah-ah. That is not canon for me. nope.)
Also, I decided to go a different way with colouring this time around, and instead of going with the soft rendering I usually go with, I decided to try my hand at recreating the style that is usually used in the comic, and good Gods, let me tell you, I had an ABSOLUTE blast and I am SO HAPPY WITH HOW THIS TURNED OUT.
SO HAPPY WITH THE COLOURING, SO HAPPY WITH THE POSE (also a little throwback to the very first artwork I did with them lolol
SO HAPPY WITH EVERYTHING.
I gave it a small "80s Retro" vibes because YES.
Honestly, for once I didn't dread colouring and rendering, and I had a HOOT.
I truly need to practice this colouring more often because I loved it! <3
Well, I hope you will like this!
