A smaller one of Nayana reading.
I hadn’t quite settled on her personality before, but I think she’s beginning to emerge. She’s one of those people who’s sort of quiet when you begin to talk with them, but soon launch into delight when you talk about something she has lots of information on! Which is many things, considering she reads a bunch.
A few ghostlines I forgot to erase here, fff.

This one is just too darling not to post :>

Nayana’s finished transformation. Sparkly!
I originally had thought that Nayana’s magical girl transformation sequence would be more mechanical. (Legit, she just sorta went into a closet-shaped “Automatic Clothing Device” and it dressed her with mechanical arms.) Mahou shoujo transformations always seemed somewhat mechanical to me. Using Sailor Moon’s as an example… Hands, gloves, bodice, each boot one at a time. So I thought it’d be neat, but there’s just something so wondrous about it being a magical action.
My pictures here have had her in her late Victorian/early Edwardian hybrid clothing, but she likes wearing her Sari at home. Partially because I have a gigantic weakness for sari.

Lilly here is awesome at costume design!
