The Ambassadorby ~Vogelein

Fan Art / Cartoons & Comics / Traditional / Books & Novels

This is The Ambassador, a character from The Uniques, a comic series written and illustrated by Adam Withers and Comfort Love. The colors are by Frank Rapoza. Thanks for making my inks look so great, Frank!

This was a really fun pinup to draw, and I just love The Ambassador as a character. What if Wonder Woman were a progressive Iranian Muslimah, and spent her time working for diplomacy rather than punching people?

For an iranian muslimah there's a lot of hair showing... But wonderful drawing otherwise! I love her expression, very wise, yet determined, strong too.

~Vogelein Jun 13, 2010

Yes. They asked for her to be very progressive, but still wear a flowing abaya, so I blended a modern abaya with some photo reference of modern young women in Tehran. I hope I got things okay -- I did my best with the research, but there's always room for more research!

Wow, it was a real assignement. I didn't realise ^^. If you got a reverence picture you trust then at least you've got a good reason to draw her like this.

It's just that when I look at the moslima around here (the Netherlands) the ones with head scarves cover all their hair. Of course, if there are "modern young women" here they just don't wair head scarves and I wouldn't recognise them so quickly as moslima *grins*

At least she's recognisable!
