Today (again) and old picture instead of a WIP.
This is pretty much the earliest picture of Lydia - like Tina's picture, it's also around 10-15 years old, drawn by Austin Stewart.
In her early incarnation, Lydia had more tattoos than just the Leviathan circling around her body, also including norse runes because I envisioned her as kinda shaman-in-training for the Coldheart. The bone flute she carries also fit into this concept.
Furthermore, in the original concept Lydia had some problems connected with the shot to the head that she got as child. Her eyes would not focus on a person but instead look "through" them because they wouldn't focus and she would talk funny, e. g. iN mIXeD uPpeRCasE anD lOwERcAse lEtTeRS. (I experimented around with that a bit and finally dropped it for the SSS comic, because it would be too tedious for the reader).
