Never Cold, Just Wants More Gold - Maya

[Khali]

"Keep your hands off, but I'll take gold instead."

Suggested fanart here, another ('footy') perspective-based piece, this time featuring the fiery dancer/mage Maya (or Manya, or Mara, depending on region) from Dragon Quest IV and Dragon Quest Heroes.

Maya and her sister Meena (or Nara, again depending on region) are two characters I recognize and know easily, yet not ones I'm truly familiar with beyond some cursory knowledge as I've barely played any of the DQ games (yes, seriously). From what I understand, the tanned/dark-skinned Maya's a bit of a gold-digger type so I'm sure her fans wouldn't mind 'donating' a bit more for her fans...to dance. Fan-dancing, pole-dancing, it's all high energy...apparently she'll even kick off her sandals if it means getting a little more interest/reward. 😉

As for the 'never cold' title, well, her magic apparently focuses on fire stuff, so despite her costume (or lack thereof), I doubt she's ever really 'cold'. 😛

Deliberately went for a bit more anime-ish look in this one (particularly the face) for an additional cute factor to the lovely character. Hope it worked. ^^

So, yeah...Maya/Manya fanart.

Her skin looks terrific, extremely stroke-able! She's displaying a ton of happy personality, too! Handsome treatment for one of my favorite tickle-targets!

I love the point-of-view!
Wonderful details on her sole.
Great work, Khali!

Low Roads:
Yep, Maya there has quite a nice skin tone...and she's showing a LOT of it, hence, well, she's asking for 'strokes'. I seem to remember a lot of tickle art of her by Kamikuzu (peperontino on dA) awhile back.

Milagros:
Thanks very much as always.

Just gonna keep it simple since I feel like I might be on the verge of a panic attack. Really cool drawing, especially the wink and the smile. Shadow's nice too.

Don't worry about my panic attack, it should pass. Leave me a PM/etc. if you want to check in. But I should be OK.

Thanks LT.
