# Rtil Tenebrae (Back) Sketch Commission
## Summary
A relatively dynamic piece that shows what Tenebrae's back looks like. *(Please keep the wings on a separate layer; ideally there's a version with them and without them.)*
As a rule of thumb, simplifying the design where needed is fine.
## General
* **Vibe:** Carefree; general sense of freedom. (She's floating, after all!)
* **Pose:** Like [this][pose-flip-parkour], but with some adjustments:
* **Sense of flight,** instead of parkour - as though she's in the middle of making a turn mid-air. *(Or mid-water; a 'sharper' turn is fine, she **doesn't** have to be moving quickly!)*
* **Angled with her back more towards the viewer** - whether you think this is best handled by changing the viewing angle, or having her twist her back more, is up to you.
* **Arms:** Closer to/more in line with her body, since she isn't using them to support herself.
* **Dress:** The tassels of her dress move as though she's moving through water.
* Please make sure that the tassels don't obstruct the view of her legs or feet! Given that they're self-actuating, it's okay if some of them are at somewhat odd angles.
* **Feet:** The pose given in the above ref is okay; I'd like something that at least shows one of her soles (and perhaps the side of her other foot).
* Feel free to change what her feet are actually *doing* if that's more interesting to you! (Position of toes, arches, what have you.)
* **Wings:** Spread; they're mostly cosmetic, but carrying that 'in flight' look would be nice. It's not a big deal, though.
* **Skin:** *[Pale, as before][tenebrae-rtil-ref].*
* **Proportions:** *[As before][tenebrae-rtil-ref].*
### Body
* **Expression:** Upbeat smile, but not maniacally so - happy a la Madoka, but not *overjoyed* a la Madoka.
* **Head:** *[As before][tenebrae-rtil-ref].*
* **Eyes:** *[As before][tenebrae-rtil-ref];* that is to say, long, winged eyelashes, with sunken eyes. (I.e., they naturally look a bit 'tired', despite how upbeat she might be.)
* **Wings:** Please remember that these have [a certain degree of translucency][tenebrae-inaba-refsheet] to them!
### Other
* **Clothing:** As per [her reference sheet][tenebrae-inaba-refsheet].
* Please keep in mind the ribbon around her neck, and the way her mostly-backless dress looks - as well as the two 'special' tassles. (The ones with the heart cutout; they could probably go between her legs.)
* **Stockings:** They should have the same "ballet flat" transparency shown there/as shown in [your prior rendition][tenebrae-rtil-ref].
