Description
She moved silently. Stalking her prey was out of her comfort zone; she favored killing at a distance in the way of the sniper.
From the Overwatch wiki:
"Amélie Guillard grew up in her family's ancestral home of Chateau Guillard. For much of her life, she was known as an accomplished ballet dancer in Paris. She was abducted by Talon. Talon completed the process of turning her into a living weapon. She was given extensive training in the covert arts, and then her physiology was altered, drastically slowing her heart, which turned her skin cold and blue and numbed her ability to experience human emotion. The slowing of her heart rate allowed her to become an exceptional sniper. Thanks to Talon's experiments Amélie was gone, replaced by "Widowmaker," Talon's most effective assassin, and feeling little save the satisfaction of a job well done."
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered with Poser 12.0.757 and tweaked in Photoshop for glow and vignette. I often do simpler portrait renderings on my laptop while more complex pictures like the recent Odd Couple series render on the desk top rendering box. The figure is from --Wartech--, her weapon is by Cybertenko and the background is from DM (Time Shadows was available at DAZ; may not be anymore). What I know about Overwatch would fill a thimble, never having played the game (teh Mollz is not a gamer). I liked the character's looks and read up on her as noted above.
This is fanart as the character is owned by Blizzard Entertainment. Teh Mollz makes not one red cent.

What a cool character, and so nicely posed and lit! I was guessing it was the gun she carries that's called the "widow maker," but then I learned from your description that SHE goes by that name! Sad thing to do to a person, but makes for a cool scene!
Never having played the game I don't know for sure but I think the character is playable and favored for her weaponry and such. The back story is certainly tragic as these things often are. I bought the content knowing nothing of that but in order to decide how to set up and render a portrait of her I did my research. Thanks for the comment, Amy. I always enjoy hearing from you!
Molly
Neat. Nothing like a gal with a steam powered Massive Firearm of Death. Hopefully it has AP (armor piercing) rounds....
It certainly looks like it might be able to pierce armor! Thanks for taking a moment to comment, JD! I always enjoy hearing from you!=)
Molly
Supercool character and pose, good choice of environment and lovely complimentary lighting...First class work and render...!
Thank you, my dear! I am so pleased you enjoyed viewing it! =D
Molly
Very nicely done. Looks just like her.
Thank you! Credit for the accuracy of her appearance goes to --Wartech-- who created the figure. I can only take credit for posing it and setting up surroundings and lighting and such. I am always grateful to good content creators as the stuff I buy from them is what I use to make my dreams! =D
Molly
Nice image. Hard to wrap my head around the concept of a steam rifle.
Heh. But an ELECTRO steam rifle?!? Danged if I know what it is or how it works but thanks to Cybertenko it looks SO cool! XD
Thanks for leaving me a fun comment, my dear!
Molly
Hehehe what an amazing looking gun! This is a very nicely done image, which I love a lot dear Molly! Thank's for sharing your estonishing images!
Thanks, Ute. =) All credit for the amazing looking weapon goes to Cybertenko. I finally came up with a character worthy of brandishing it! =P
Molly
Beautiful lighting and animated style! Great expression work!
Thank you for this encouraging comment. --Wartech--'s stand alone characters like this one have very strange facial rigging and good expressions are not easy to come by. I was pleased with what I came up with and I so appreciate your validation! <3
Molly
OK, the TNA Girls are bugging me to get them a case of those.... They said something about having "..the perfect target to use 'em on..." Can't imagine who they mean....
Excellent work!
The Widowmaker endorses this weaponry and recommends that the TNA girls acquire all the firepower they need to take out.... well, we shan't say who, shall we? XD
Thanks for leaving me a comment to make me smile, my dear! =D
Molly

I know nothing about overwatch, but this is an amazing image, has a great narrative quality.
(p.s. apologies for not commenting on your recent works, but it seems Rendo notifications are broken again and much is passing me by alas)
Heh. l feel your pain about the notifications. >.<
I know nothing about Overwatch except from the "Google Machine" but I really liked the look of this character. Thanks so much for commenting! <3
Molly
It seems as if it may perhaps penetrate armor! Dear JD, I appreciate you stopping by to leave a remark geometry dash. You are usually very entertaining to hear from!
