*** An entry for the AP Battlegrounds EVI v. Dafeiji - Noir collab challenge ***

Collab team: elfe-noire43, Jack, supermonchi

In this challenge, our task was to portray Mireille using a timekeeping device.
While the sundial idea was pretty straightforward, deciding on a background concept and choosing a Mireille scan wasn't quite that straightforward in a 3-people collabs environment - but we made it!

It all begun with this concept - LOL! XD
The ruin settings, sky, sundial and everything else present here were drawn manually from scratch through a massively laborious effort and plenty of midnight oil.
Practically no scan or stock photos used, other than for Mireille vectoring, misc tracings and stone texturing.

I haven't watched this series but elfe-noire43 has, and she added a nice touch of story truthfulness by putting Mireille's shadow on the Virgo symbol because it means maiden and Noir is about the "maidens who governs death". She also changed the sundial symbols (cardinals points ) from their usual position to fit with the sun position.

All credit to Jack for the vector and the modifications made on the original Mireille scan to fit with the scene esp the lighting.

Enjoy!
