Feeling sketchy tonight...

So I'm working on this Big Bang fic, which involves Ling and Lan Fan, and apart from that I don't think I can say anything else.  Suffice it to say that at some point I have written Ling's mother into the story and I felt compelled to draw her.  Now people, this is just an unpolished sketch.  I wanted to draw her as shocked at Ling's return (why her hands are posed like she's going to be sick o_O), and I'm really no good at drawing hands and feet, which is why the hands present are crude and there's no feet at all.  I think he bears a strong resemblance to her, what do you think?


Her name is Rui, yes she has a bit of a double chin, and I modeled her hair from an 1800's woodcut print of a chinese musician.

Oh, that's a nice sketch of here there! I too thought Ling would resemble a lot like her. On my 2010-2011 Big Bang the last chapter was of Ling, Lan Fan, and May returning to Ling's palace and her surprised at his return, lol

Interesting. I've never even given Ling's mother a thought so the idea alone intrigues me. I particularly like what you did with her hair

Thanks! I totally didn't do her hair justice.
