Lady Shan, Nagai Female Dark Jedi

Submitted by Mercy on Tue, 03/24/2009 - 00:30. Work In Progress

This request from number7;

"I created the following mid-level baddie for the players in my campaign to go up against.

The Lady Shan is a female of the Nagai species. She is also known as Darth Endiss but prefers her previous title of Nagai nobility. She has an athletic build and average height for a female. Her skin is very pale white and she has long jet black hair pulled back in a severe style, exposing her pointed ears. Lady Shan's face is thin and gaunt and her bloodshot yellow eyes have dark circles under them. She is hauntingly attractive except for her disdainful expressions and mannerisms. She wears a skin tight black body suit under black kimono-like robes that are white on the inside.

Darth Endiss has two identical short red bladed lightsabers with a unique bend in the hilts. When thrown like a boomerang, the short blade becomes even shorter and a second blade activates from the butt of the hilt, effectively becoming a boomerang. She also carries a traditional Nagai weapon, the Tehk'la blade. This wicked variant of the common vibro-dagger has serrated edges that tear an enemy's flesh as the blade is drawn from the wound."

KEWL! Also your lightsaber designs have greatly improved and they look awesome. Keep up the good work.

Very cool. I'm highly fond of the hair style! :D

Wow, I'm totally blown away. You have captured Lady Shan's emotions perfectly. She is beautiful and arrogant at the same time.

When I was thinking of the mechanics for the boomerang lightsabers, I didn't really consider how they might look. Your interpretation of them is spectacular. It works really well. Her body language suggests she may even be about to hurl one of them at somebody.

Thank you so much.

Neat! So glad you like it!

I'll post again when I've dropped a bit of colour into it.

Here's the sort of colour scheme I was gonna go with...

Dark and sinister is okay in my book. After all, she didn't become a Sith by being bright and cheerful. =)

The sketch is better than I could have imagined. However you choose to color it will be great.

Mercy, I was looking through your gallery and I noticed that you did a request a while back on a Nagai Jedi padawan.

One of the players in my campaign is playing a Nagai jedi padawan. It just so happens that he is the younger brother of Lady Shan. He is her apprentice, although he is about to break away from the Sith and embrace the light side.

With your permission, I would like to use your picture of Akain Karna for Lady Shan's apprentice.

Hi number7!

Glad you like how it is going!
I have no problems with you using the pic of Akain - and I doubt the original requester would have a problem.
Enjoy!

She looks mean ... but in a good way.

Thanks man!

Okay, so I think this one might almost be done!
Let me know if anything needs tinkering with, k?

I can't believe how fast you completed this. It looks great. I know I've said it before, but thank you so much. You are awesome.

Mercy has stated in the past "It is tunnle vision and an understanding spouse". But she sure can crank them out and this is another example of a very cool pic. The hair style makes me think of a Princess Leia, who has gone over to the dark side.

Heh! I now want that on a tee-shirt!

Thanks guys, glad you like her!
If there isn't anything that really needs changing I might load her up to gallery, k?

Onwards and upwards!!
