Cleopatra

My take of the famous Egyptian Queen. I felt that I should start posting some of my Late Republican genderswap character designs, for any who are interested.

Cleopatra however I felt had no need to be swapped. I wanted to go for something pop culturally familiar, but also something different from the usual.

Instead of the young teenager as she was in history, I wanted to portray Cleo as a more mature woman and reflect her personality in her design. She was a brilliant political strategist, and supposedly was more attractive because of her intelligence than her body, but I felt we could go ahead and use both.

Again, very very rough sketches with colors, in case anyone wants to try their own hand at her...
