Echo: "I want to wear my hair like you do!"

Jace: "The Queen won´t like that much, though.."

Echo: "You said I am the Queen, did´nt you?"

Jace: "Yes...I did. ~sigh~ As you wish."

:happybounce: FINALLY it is done! Only took me two years to color it, heh... :dummy: :ashamed:

Wanted to draw a picture of my OC Jace and Echo for a long long time now, so far the little one only existed in my brain and on too many written notes...

This picture shows Jace way in the past together with the child queen Echo, his foster child.

I hope I can go into details about his backstory soon, it´s coming together slowly yet steady. At first I thought I´d just slap a "hardass soldier"-backstory onto Jace, but it didn't do him any justice. After a while I had that idea that one of his latest professions in his old hive was actually educating the young, serving as tutor and caretaker. Before his exile he was given the responsibility to be guard and teacher to the new queen, Echo, when she is about 5 years old. (on the picture she´s about 8-10)

Drawn on heavy paper with ballpoint pen. A tad smaller than A4. Colored with COPICmarkers and white ink.

Designing Jace´s old uniform and the interior of the hive/station was alot of fun, I missed drawing far too much Love
