"La Lijhline" is the first fantastic novel
from the serial "Le Cycle Parezel".
 
 
It was written by Nylh,
a friend and artist who loves the good old victorian aesthetics too.
 
 
The book (and the amazing costumes she creates),
can both be found here or here.
 
 
 
First sketches: placing the main character...
She is actually inspired from Nylh's own cosplay and original universe:
a mysterious laboratory assistant,
who defends herself with needles.
 
 
 
Focusing on the face...
 
 
 
...Hair then, where I took my inspiration in Art Nouveau style.
The aim was to remind the book covers from the 1900's.
