Matriarch Luciana

The last of the January busts I did for JoeHundredaire's Patreon people.

Straight off my bust of Calia, here's Matriarch Luciana of the Sylléktries. She's part of a dark, dirty secret of the asari that dates back to their discovery of the Citadel. Accordingly, she rarely appears in public - even among her own people - and generally covers her face and head when she does. I went through a few variations during the sketch stage that included four eyes as befitting her prothean heritage, but I just couldn't settle on a design that I liked. That and it raised a few biological questions on my end; if bionic eyes were ready tomorrow and someone stuck two of them to your face and wired them up, does that mean your brain would suddenly be capable of properly handling that much input? So... two eyes. Not sure what I'll do if Joe asks for a batarian/asari hybrid, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Oh, and yes, that is Miranda's catsuit. And yes, there is a reason she's wearing it.
