Vi Dye (Patreon)

At long last the concept nobody ever asked for - The moment Viola dyed her hair black!
The debate has raged for years; "Which version of Vi is better??", Blonde vs Raven, Princess vs Empress, Younger vs Elder, well today we take a fun new step by FINALLY updating her old hairstyle to... HER OLD HAIRSTYLE BUT SLIGHTLY LONGER AND BLACK. Brilliant, how didn't I think of that before?
For the uninitiated, Viola has been my main OC/Mascot for actually a bit longer than I've actually been doing art. In fact, I got into this path of art because I wanted to draw Viola who was at the time my main SWTOR character - something I'm sure many of you can relate to given our SWTOR contingency! The whole thing about Blonde vs Black dates all the way back to my RPing days from when I changed an otherwise secondary toon's hair from blonde to black and changed it's name to Viola, thus the character was really born! Then, later on when I actually drew her blonde came to represent younger Vi while black was older and assertive like her character became and from that my early followers started to debate which version was better, a debate which rages on to this day.
In terms of model design, I actually really like putting the blonde style hair on Elder Vi's model and making it black, it really kinda makes the character more cohesive to me, and now her parting/bangdangle is actually on the correct side.
Anyways, here's some OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD Viola art from way back before I ever had even a single follower - I literally forgot until this very moment that OG Vi used to have sleeves and nipple piercings and, yes, her boobs have shrunk consistently over time... Enjoy this journey through eVIlution!
