PETRAAAAAA WHYYYYYYYY I MISS HER SO MUCH
Part of me loves Petra because she's sweet, kind and caring while the other part of me loves Petra because SHE KILLS TITANS LIKE A BADASS YEAH Because being nice to your teammates goes hand in hand with being completely devastating to your enemies Oh Petra, she was really too good for this world, I don't even care much about the rest of the story because a piece of me just died with her.

Anyway, for this drawing I was just experimenting with watercolours and actual watercolour techniques, so things like 'wet-in-wet', 'wet-on-dry', splatter effects and other fun little things you can do with brushes and water and paint. But really, IDK what I was doing, I'm starting to think that watercolours don't go very well with fineliners (i.e. the natural effect gets a bit lost when you add the black lines and gouache) so maybe that's what I'll have to try for next time. The flowers are gardenias, which look like what you'd get if you bred roses and jasmines together but you can't even see them because I went splatter-happy with the red paint (which dried pink, so it's not so brutal haha) Aaand I need to draw something OTHER than SnK like seriously my brain starts seeing 3DMG and Survey cloaks everywhere like whaaaat

Alternate version (without finelining and gouache): Will post once I get photos off my phone argh
