Trade for UltraViolet14: Violet and Wakanda

My half of I and UltraViolet14's trade ! I love this piece! I was going to just do a simple sketch, but I got a little excited . Anyway, UltraVioelt14 requested Violet and her best friend, and that her friend have a service dog for some unseen reason. So this is what I came up with. Enter, Wakanda! Or "Way" for short . Here's what I came up with for her (and please, bare with me here, I'm making this up as I type) : She's Violet's best friend and closest confidant. She shares a lot of interests with Violet, but does has a slightly different personality. She's a bit more bubbly and upbeat, and a bit hyperactive in Violet's opinion . But she treats Violet with respect, and that's more than can be said for most of the students at Western View Junior High. And she is also a super hero, and ergo, relates to the challenges Violet faces. The name "Wakanda" in fact means "Possess magical powers," and they may not be real magic, but she could outdo any regular magician. Her powers allow her to take control of inanimate objects, and teleport them wherever she wishes within a mile of her. She also possess control over light, which, ironically, can make Violet completely visible even if she fights it. She also seems to be able to make Violet's thoughts visible, as she often can pick out if something is bothering Violet and they are quite frequently found to know what each other is going to say before the other says it, or even at the same time. She also has a service dog, a Black Labrador Retriever named X Caliber, who accompanies her everywhere. She suffers from epilepsy, which can throw her into seizures at any time. This was brought on by the development of the power center in her brain, giving her super-human abilities, but impeding her nervous system slightly by developing in just the wrong place. Not only can Caliber sense these seizures before they happen, he also seems to be able to shorten them by laying with her and licking her. Violet and Wakanda met when they were young, and got closer the more they hung out. She was one of the few people to keep in contact with Violet even after every time she would move. As a fellow super, she didn't need to be shut off. They can confide in each other and talk about things they can't discuss with anyone else. Overall, these two make quite a team .

This character is loosely based on two different characters of mine. I wanted to make her similar to Violet, but not by any means identical. I find that people tend to make the best friends with people who have similar interests, but opposing personalities. I also wanted to use a different color pallet for Wakanda, making her more an autumn (deep browns, earthy colors), Violet being a summer/winter (high-contrast, monochromatic, cold, ect.). I'm also sort of using this as a color tester for my room, as we're moving (for the last time in a LONG time, Thank God) and I FINALLY get to paint my room !!! So this is an example of what I'd like it to look like. A took an mental image of Violet's room from the video game "When Danger Calls" and merged it with my current room, splashed on some brighter color, and wallah! There you have it ! And, because of that, there are actually a lot of objects here that you can find in my room . But I’m not telling which ones! This was a lot of fun to do, I must say. And that' coming from a girl who don't like in the least doing backgrounds . I think I just enjoyed using my colored markers again. And, yes, Violet DOES have an Incredibles poster IN HER ROOM. Cut me some slack! I couldn't think of anything else to put there!!! Oh, and yeah, "Howl City" poster LOL. I love owl city <3 .

So, hope you like it, Ultra Violet ! Can’t wait to see what you did! I’m sure I’ll love it !
