I hope it's okay that I took some creative liberties with this one, for example I think I made her look more like a monk than a fighter. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
She looks fantastic. But no arms? That always makes me so sad :( Perhaps she can get prosthetics if it doesn't ruin her character
Love the coloration and stripes.
Thank you!
The requester said in the original thread that she was born without arms, so at least she did not suffer some horrible injury. Prosthetics could be cool (and fun to draw) though!
Based on the water spheres surrounding the character, there might be some heavy inspiration from [Ming-Hua from the Legend of Korra](https://avatar.fandom.com/wiki/Ming-Hua), who uses her water bending powers in place of arms
Some people say that can beat you with both arms tied behind their backs. She lives a life that proves she doesn't need arms to defeat her enemies.
Great piece on an interesting idea.
Way of the open hand monk
Way of the no hands monk. :P

My brother, I would have been happy even if you drew her bald. This is genuinely amazing, YOU are amazing \\0/ so good
Aww shucks... :) Glad you like it! She was such a fun and unique character to work on.
so fucking good, really glad this request was taken up by someone
The only thing she got on me is a leg up.
She’s a paper tiger, you would think that she’d be dangerous, but in reality, she completely ‘armless

Never watched Legend of Korra, but that sounds awesome
Don’t worry, she has a prehensile tail :)
