A vector of Cannongirl Sylvia, with a proud facial expression consisting of her eyes closed and a closed smiling mouth.

Sylvia’s character design is based on this custom Lego soldier minifigure I made, a black woman cannoneer with a linstock/torch. In fact, the whole Plumerian army is based on my custom Lego soldiers, and I’m the captain of it. I used Krazy Glue (the Kragle) to glue her shako to her hair and a thick yellow pipe cleaner for a realistic plume to the plastic red plume embedded into her shako.

As captain of the Plumerian army in my fictional universe, I’m proud to have such a strong woman in my regiment. #OC #SylviaTimson #napoleonic #soldiergirl #blackcharacter #bighairdontcare #blackhair #cannongirl #cannoneer #feathers #plumes #artillery #drawing #digitalart #procreate #lego (2/2)

“I’m Sylvia Timson, cannongirl of the Plumerian army’s artillery brigade and the queen of kabooms. I’m the one with the big curly hair and bangs and the big yellow feathers. When I fire the cannons, I always feel the pride as the big quaking kabooms burst out and my hair, bearskin fur, cord tassels, jabot tie, and plumes get blown around by the blasting wind! I love this job so much!”

This is a new #OC for my fictional universe, #SylviaTimson of the Plumerian army’s artillery forces. She’s the “Queen of Kabooms” who loves to feel the big winds in her giant hair and massive plumes as she fires her troop’s cannon. #napoleonic #soldiergirl #blackwoman #procreate #digitalart (1/2)
