UPDATE: Congrats Christi, you've got a new ref!

Thought I would post her to show you all what she looks like, especially after the recent art trade I did.

This is my personification of the element Chromium. Her name's Christi, and she's around 17-going-on-18. She's an excellent driver for her age (because chrome-plated car parts). Her design is explained as follows: the prominent use of blue (like her hat) and green (her shirt) represent the two main oxidation states of chromium, +2 and +3. The extra orange bracelet on her right arm represents the dangerous +6 state she can also be in. Her rainbow belt symbolizes the fact that chromium comes from chroma, the Greek word for color. Her gray pants are obvious (chromium metal), and yes, she has a Google Chrome keychain just for fun.
