My demeanor is often misread

Not really sure wtf I was thinking with this one, aside from needing to just keep painting. I did buy these models specifically so I wouldn’t overthink them, but a plan would not have gone amiss. The original inkling for the skin was traditional tiefling, but I got this wild hair about trying tortoise shell and now I like the armor better than the skin. I think I’ll try to take it more aubergine and see if she looks less like Krampus’ prom date.
