Pentakill Sona sketch from League of Legends (LoL)

"Pentakill Sona" League of Legends, fan art by Jane Reed

For those of you who are new to LoL, League of Legends is a PvP RTS game that was inspired by DOTA (Defense of the Ancients). What makes LoL so special is the large myriad of Champions that you can "summon" to fight for you. I mean really, there are like 857037421 characters to choose from. You're bound to find someone that matches your play style!

For me, that someone is Sona. She matches my defensive play style perfectly, making playtime with Hubby Crash much more fun & enjoyable for me. I wanted to do my take on the Pentakill Sona skin. I've always loved it but wanted to see how it would look with more motion and dynamic posing, and this is what it evolved to. I'm planning to finish this piece in watercolor.


This goes nicely together with an earlier piece which I refer to as  "Tribute to Gamer Girls." Yep, gamer girls are still pretty rare...but the overabundance of gamer boys do love us. Even if we do have a chip on our shoulder 'cause we can PWN you in a duel! You WoW girls know what I'm sayin'. I'm planning to finish this piece in vector format. Enjoy!
