2023/10/11: With the 5th anniversary redraw, it's time to add some comments here.
Stella was the second Yearbook damsel (see Mio for more info), which is slightly funny if you know my history with the character. Long story short, Chivalry of a Failed Knight is the series that got my husband Nothles and I together. On top of that, Stella is incredibly cute and canonically kinky to the point that I got a little lightheaded reading one of the steamier scenes in the novels.
I only thought of this just now, but I think the original Yearbook drawing is the first time I ever drew Stella. I might have doodled her a bit before, but I'm certain I never did a complete drawing. You can certainly tell, because it's not very good—just about everything's the wrong size, and apparently I just gave up on some of the outfit detail.
Of course, I had to start somewhere. The redraw is certainly an indication of how far I've come already, and I hope to improve far more in the years to come. I spent a lot of time fretting about whether I did a good enough job, but let's face it: with this particular character, I'm never going to feel like I live up to her. ^.^;
