As someone part of an Afro-Panamanian background, let me first say this oc is amazing in terms of body shape, personality, pretty much everything. I'm new to this blog so can I ask if "Mariposa" is an actual nickname of Panama? My grandmother always referred the country as so but I don't know if it's just her personally or if Panamanians actually call it the Butterfly.

( aaaaa anon you’re such a sweetheart im so glad !! ♡♡ Messages like this really motivate me and I’m mega flattered you took your time to send me this and ask me @o@

MARIAS CROWN HAS A LITTLE GUITAR ON TOP THATS SO CUTE ????????

(( I KNOW RIGHT AAAA

You see I used references for it;

It looks like a guitar, they’re pretty popular among these crowns, but I think its a traditional instrument instead ?? like the socavon or the mejorana ? The first picture’s elongated shape looks more like those than a guitar.

bc its so small I can’t tell; but a lil guitar on top is hella cute none the lessomf i love traditional jewellery ))

(( Yesterday was Seperation Day (Maria’s birthday ❤) but I was too busy to draw something aaaa, either way I never miss the Fiestas Patrias with my muse so I thought drawing a little something would still be good !!

Today in this holiday month for Panama, Nov 4th is Flag Day - which is why I drew her with her flag rather than in the pollera gala (despite her wearing tembleques and their respective jewelry with a stylized dress) ))

( to keep my imprint in this fandom i rise once more to post a random drawing before melting back into the shadows

This is a special draw since it's finally me drawing a traditional (native) Pattern to Panama just as important as the Mola or the Pollera patterns, but this one is often more colorful and detailed that I legit shied away from drawing it because i'm so lazy fjhjfj This is the Embera pattern, and i found the reference (i think the girl even has marias boob mole omG) I used for this panamanian outfit when searching for more stylized fashion u3u It's very prominent, and I was happy to find it <3 But ofc I changed some colors; embera patterns are most often even more colorful (like here) so i went with yellow for the top's base, and added hibiscus to the flower crown since its the flower of these native peoples.

Thank you guys, THIS is what it means to appreciate a blog/character and the fact that any of you took your time to send these sweet messages just makes me extremely happy ❤ There’s enough to the point where I couldn’t respond to them individually (I don’t wanna spam people’s dash) but please know i LOVE you all thank you for this;;;
