Title: A female king in yellow

Details: I have more pictures to send as reference but it will only let me send 2

One of the images is of a tattoo. don’t want madusa but I really like the facial expression and the pose.

What I do want is a tattoo of the king in yellow or Hastur. But I want the king drawn as a women

Hastur is a shepherd so it would be interesting I think if sheep were incorporated in some way maybe the background

There’s a symbol called “the yellow sign” that’s associated with this character it’s easy to find if you google it. I think having that symbol incorporated is important, perhaps on the chest. Maybe the tattoo can feature a small amount of cleavage and the symbol can be like a tattoo on the chest of the character

I like the floating crown in the other picture I sent

The entity is a creature of the cosmic horror genre.

In the mythos Hastur is the twisted god art, and performance he usually wears a mask. I was thinking it would be cool if the piece had a partial mask as if it had been chipped away at and parts of the face are exposed that way you can see the facial expressions. there is a lot of lore behind him and he’s one of my favorite characters to appear in horror novels. You can google all sorts of interpretative art but there’s almost nothing where the character is drawn as a women.

New references:
"One of them is a portrait I'm not particularly fond of the art style but I like a few things. The antlers the symbol on the chest and how the artist drew it as a female. They other image I'm sending to give the artist an idea of how the character is traditionally perceived based on the original lore."

Revision info:

"1, the right eyebrow (from the characters perspective) looks slightly off. To me it seems it's to close to the center of the face or it might be slightly too long.

2, I'd like to see the character drawn to the upper thigh level. It currently is drawn to about the belly button.

3, (optional) the character traditionally would be wearing a mask I mentioned this in the original invoice. I still want to see the facial expression so perhaps an old cracked partial mask would work or maybe her face can be a slightly different tone than the rest of the skin with cracks running down it. I think the artist should take artistic liberties here. If he thinks incorporating a mask in anyway would ruin the piece im fine with omitting it.

Things I haven't mentioned to the artist but thought about (I was nervous to ask because I wasn't getting responses);

1, I want the character to be drawn in an anime inspired style I think the character looks great but I keep thinking that the face might have a tad bit more realism than I was imagining. It might look more anime once it's drawn out with color im not sure if anything needs to be done about this.

2, in the draft the crown has a slightly off tilt to it like it's not lined up with the characters nose. Maybe it looks better this way than if it lined up with where the characters face is pointed im not sure but I'd like the artist to think about it when redesigning. it's also looks quite minimalist which im actually fine with so long as it has a glow to it once it's got some color.

I also mentioned to him that I originally asked for black and yellow but after looking at his art on instagram again I think it would be a terrible idea to not go with more tones like hints of purple in the tentacles, brown in the antlers, some variation in skin tone to make her look ever so slightly necrotic. He told me this wouldn't be a problem to go full color."
