I never thought I’d be drawing Her Holiest of Holies, but after 3 books I finally got her.  Or she got me.  I love how @stdennard can turn your perception of a character on its head in a matter of pages.  The quality of this is unfortunately abysmal as it originally started off as practice with my brushes on a tiny canvas.  I liked it too much to scrap it and I know myself well enough to know that trying to replicate it from scratch on a bigger canvas would have ended in misery.
