Lara's rainforest delights

Added 2025-03-30 17:08:15 +0000 UTC

Been working on this one inbetween other projects since before Christmas (lol) but FINALLY, here's a saucy pinup of Lara "enjoying" a magically appearing waterfall within a rainforest (don't try and make sense of it... at this point I've given up trying to lmao)

It took so long to get the drawing worked out that I only noticed at the very end that I literally didn't draw ANYTHING that makes it obvious this is supposed to be Lara Croft. FML.

I tried a few different colouring techniques, challenged myself a bit with all the reflections and water stuff and especially on that perspective. Most of it's worked out pretty well (I think!) but yeah, I wish I'd realised I hadn't drawn her outfit hanging over a tree branch of anything like that just to help tie it together. (I would have done it at the end but it took me so long to get the composition locked in I didn't want to break it to add anything else)

Despite all that stuff I hope you like the piece in the end! There's no alts or anything this time around, it's just a nice and spicy Lara piece for you guys. It will go out on Bluesky in early April and there's a chance I could make a sticker out of it for the next WaifuLoot drop too if anyone's interested in this one 👀

There's 2 colour versions (the first has some extra "post effects" that I can't decide if I like or not) and I've put the linework and the very rough initial sketch in the post to give you a glimpse of how much this changed over time.

Lemme know what you think!
