Yeah, it's been a looooong while since I last posted in here. Anyways, I'm semi-back now and thought I'd share one picture I did today, because it'd be nice to see if I've improved lately.

(Image removed due to size, sorry to make you guys visit DA)

1. I'm not afraid of harsh critique
2. The coloring is a bit sloppy here and there, I'm just learning how to CG and quite frankly I still suck at it xD
3. Her hands are wonky, I messed up the inking.
4. I'm sure there's something I forgot to mention... please remind me?

hmm... nice composition ^^
really nice ^^
hmm... the hair... right on the top of her head... it looks a lil bit weird to me... probably because it don't follow the shape of her head ^^;
your perspective is a lil bit weird... the chair supports... the four of them shouldn't be aligned... the back ones should be a lil bit more shorter ^^;
hmmm... her right arm is too thin... ^^;
and the other arm well... the shoulder should be more... hmmm... "round"... >.>
dunno if u know what I meant XD
oh well ^^;
anyway... I think u are really talented ^^
I liked the colors... the eyes... the clothes... and the proportion is really good!!!!
well done ^^
keep it up! ^^

Can see what you mean with the hair... I think it's some kind of weird stylistic thing I always do, bad habit, I admit that. The chair is super wonky, kinda added it afterwards rofl Yes thin arm, was too lazy to do anything about it since it didn't look disturbingly thin. Hmm... alright I can see what you mean with the shoulder 3nodding

Thankies to both of you heart

Critique? Ya sure? X_X (I hate givin' critique even though I know that I am helping the artist improve 'cause I hate offending ppl...)

Ok, ok. 1.) The bow is shaped kind of wrong. The two ends should curl at around the same height since she's upright, but the left side is longer than the left (though she COULD have tied it up uneven, but that's very unlikely when it comes to characters)

2.)Basically her forehead is way too large. Also that hairline thing, but its been mentioned so I won't go any further.

3.) Even though I see that her head's pretty big 'cause she's leaning forward, it is still pretty oversized. Shrinking? needs to occur.

4.) Again, that chair thing. Most chairs don't have their legs spread out all like that (they usually face the same direction). And also, where is the back of her chair? Or is it a stool? If its a stool, stools usually have very straight legs. Slanted legs make it look like a chair.

5.) The end of her hair looks fizzy. (especially the first curve at the end-- it looks extremely blunt. Usually the first curve is longer than the rest, but it looks very... fat.) Maybe it needs to be longer?

6.) The shoes are overall ok except for where they are placed. (NOTE: I may be wrong) It looks like the left (to our right) leg is raised higher than the right (to our left) leg. I dunno. It looks alright though (I would not have noticed if I was not looking for stuff to critique at)

I LIKE YOUR ART. (especially the right arm). I love how you made the right arm closer to the viewer, and how you made the arm larger and made it more realistic. It's something I'll never be able to do for years... ^^ Background? Please? Wishful thinking

Thank you 3nodding I don't like giving critique myself, but harsh critique often works very well on me. The harsher the person is, the better my next image is, haha, I'm so weird.
1) Bow, yes, should've used reference for that one... it's way messed up.
2) Head thing was intentional.
3) Once again, I know it's too big.
4) Ah... the chair thing sure made me remember to pay more attention to details in the future ^^;
5) Don't agree here xD I always draw hair like that, ick!
6) Hmm... actually since one of her feet is placed in front of the other (leg stretched out more) it should look like that... feet are rarely on the exact same plane even when they're on a flat ground.

And yes, I've been working on backgrounds and promise to bring more of those to you as soon as possible 3nodding heart
