I wanted to depict strong women warriors who do not necessarily look like the typical warrior. With different sizes, ages, and body types, each one feels like she has a rich backstory and history.

You can find all my warrior women in a high-res, free-to-download PDF in the link below.

She looks like a Native American warrior. Powerful, confident, and capable.

I want to know her story. Why does she have a duck? Why does the duck have a fabulous victorian updo?

This is my favorite. A woman with this build is only ever portrayed as the bad guy, if she's seen at all. However, I know several lovely women of the same shape IRL, just as varied as the whole of your series. Beautiful job!

that is an Afghan Hound, one of the oldest dog breeds around! They are big, skinny, hypoallergenic dogs! First breed in cold mountains of Afghanistan.

Hyperlordosis: an exaggerated inward curve of the lumbar spine. It can cause discomfort but not usually pain. Speaking from experience of having this condition.

All of the ladies look wonderful. The daily training with their chosen weapon would definitely harden their bodies a bit, so it makes sense that the larger ladies with the softer bodies have hunting companions that do the distant in your face stuff, and they have long range weapons. Those that do not, could stand to have a few more defined muscles in their arms and legs. They don't have to be skinny, or lean, just more defined. Warriors work at their craft and generally get regular practice, which can be a hell of a workout.

Only problem I have with any of these are the waistlines that belong on a 12 yr old. Nobody that I've ever seen has waists like that.

Agreed! These are wonderful drawings, the artwork is terrific, and I do appreciate the diversity, as well as the power shown in each picture. But the tiny waists? Really? I'm feeling faint just looking at them!

Ope, a dead pig. Welp, I guess that drawing of a lady with a warthog just lost its warthog.

Pretty sure she killed that pig for food. First one with a dead animal.

Hmmm, this one irks me. You don't get a waist like that without a corset, and why would a huntress wear one?

Why would her legs and arms grow in fat and muscles while core stays smaller than head?

This looks *exactly* like a judgmental Renaissance painting. I love it!
