rei ayanami- day 132

Description

This is my entry for battle 31 this week at :iconbattle-artist:
<3

The subject was Rei Ayanami from Evangelion.
I've seen the show, know who she is and enjoy her character design, but i cant say i've ever been a big fan of the show. xD

but hey - i still enjoyed drawing her. C:
well - HER yes, i did like drawing the figure even if she wasnt clad in corsets & ruffles & yards of fabric (and trust me, i considered going completely AU on her xDD, but for me a big part of BA is to draw outside comfort zone so i held fast!).
The rest of the machinery was a bit more painful - slowly drawn & re-drawn across many casual hours. >.<; (i did get a boost of energy from reading :iconredskullrudd:'s curse-adrenaline filled match run up XDD)

It's hard to put my 'style' on a very mechanical piece since i'm not so familiar with it, so i hope it looks still somewhat stylized C:

a few refs helped me on this.
[link] - for figure ref <3
[link] - outfit ref
[link] - alternate outfit ref
[link] - plug machine ref

drawn on & off for a week - probably ~8 hrs.
0.5 mech, printer paper, blending stump, PS for spot color
evangelion & logo (c) Gainax
