The Heroes Of Legend

The heroes of legend

I’ve spent a lot of time on this one, and I’m happy with how it turned out!

Didn’t plan out the lighting sooo here’s two versions and the base colors to.

After playing a “GAME”.

It’s the Wagtail Day/Вурщӑк хӑтл! A first Khanty-Mansi holiday I’ll attend, It’s so exciting! 

I’ll add a bit of info from a Khanty-Mansiysk news paper “Khanty-yasang”. Done with google translate, but I had to fix one word that it got wrong, so there might be more mistakes:

On the first day of summer, the indigenous peoples of Yugra traditionally celebrate Wagtail Day, a holiday of spring, summer and warmth.

In the mythology of the Ob Ugrians, this small bird is given considerable attention. She is a prophetic bird, that is connected with other worlds, she brings happiness, protects children, endows babies with speech.

In the past, the Kondinsky Mansi performed a special ceremony dedicated to this bird. In today's life, this is a holiday that was restored according to the description of the Mansi storyteller Anna Mitrofanovna Konkova.

The Wagtail Festival, having absorbed additional realities associated with children, was filled with new content, and has firmly entered the practice of many ethnographic museums in the district. It began to be held on International Children's Day and became very popular with the younger generation.

In the open-air ethnographic museum "Torum Maa" in Khanty-Mansiysk, it was first celebrated in 2010, since then it has been celebrated annually.

I’ve tried writing the Khanty name of the holiday, but the last letter doesn’t show, so I’ve just replaced it with the closest think: “Вурщӑк хӑтл”. Actually the “л” should have a little tail, like “щ” does.

Catty is a classical horny bard™. Golden ukulele cause I think the golden violin from Devil went down to Georgia is a really cool visual.

I wanted to give Catti a hood, but Noelle already has one sooo... Catties phone turns into a spell book. The pages are this blue color cause I imagen them to glow like a screen.

The colors look vastly different on my laptop vs my phone and that’s super annoying. On my phone this is way more vibrant and warm than intended, and so the hair looks like shit.

Just finished this.
