Description I like Vriska. she is a very compelling character and has a great arc and develops a lot. But I will never quite forgive her for killing Tav.

i almost forgot i'm a cusp;;; and recently i found out i might technically actually be a scorpio?? i've always identified with libra 'cause of the whole FAIRNESS JUSTICE THERE MUST BE BALANCE IN THE FORCE LUKE part, as well as the tends-to-put-others-before-yourself aspect, but I am def not a social butterfly and i don't like attention the way libras supposedly do. i was always kinda scared of the scorpio traits, the holds-a-grudge-like-a-beast, maybe a bit judgemental?? very opinionated parts that i really don't identify with. but i think i do have them.

i was born on the evening of the 22nd, so i'm about as cusp-y as they come. it is a conflicting life, being a cusp. /cries single tear

also im p sure my monitor is whack with the colors?? this was SO DARK on my machine.... ugh i don't understand you, computer....

I like the color contrast and the glowyness! I also like the way she's not perfectly in the middle, she's off to the side, that's cool. It's very nice!

Also, I'm a Scorpio. :3

thank you! Her positioning is actually something I put thought into (for once, eheheheh....) so I'm really glad you picked that out!

yeahhh, Scorpio! I've always identified more with Libra, but I think lately my Scorpio traits have been rising to the surface......... trials and tribulations of the Cusp Children, ahaha. ;u;

oh, Vriska isn't mine! She's from a webcomic called Homestuck. She is certainly a very interesting character, though!

Nice! I agree that Vriska has a great arc... she's one of my favorite Homestuck characters and a lot of it comes from her growth and complexity.

I really like the colors and glowy quality this has, and it has a nice sense of motion. However, the lighting and shading make the eyes naturally drawn to the sun on her chest, when I feel like they really should be drawn to her face, especially her eyes and the direction of her gaze. Random little thing... the coloring on her glasses looks really nice, and the glowy-looking web and the background work really well.

affectionateTea In reply to musiqueen [2012-07-14 03:15:28 +0000 UTC]

yes, I agree! While I'm not terribly fond of her personally because she reminds me a bit too much of people I've known that have made my life somewhat less fun in the past, I really appreciate her development and her role in the story. It was masterfully done, and even if you don't agree with what she did you still empathize with her by the end of it, which is an impressive feat, all things considered.
(we all are helpless at the mercy of The Huss and his strings of emotional puppetry....)

Hmm, yes, those are good points. My only concern would be drawing the eye too far from the middle; I kind of have a lot going on in this one, so putting more focus on the edges might draw the gaze away too much without being able to draw it back? Also there was just the fact that the light source was supposed to be the symbol, so logically it would be brightest, although I think I did overdo it a bit and could have made it not quite as eye-catching.

The web and background were things I was concerned about, so I'm really glad you think I pulled them off! Thank you so much for your comment, it was extremely helpful and made me think about some things I hadn't considered. I will definitely try to take them into account next time. <3

thanks!!

Libra is Sept (23, i think?) - Oct 22, and Scorpio is Oct 23 - Nov... uhh, 22 i guess. I was born on the evening of Oct 22, if I'd been born, like. six hours later, it would've been the 23rd and I'd've been a scorpio. That's a cusp! When you're right on the border between the signs. (although technically the actual border time changes every year, and i think it might've been around 2pm that year, so technically i might be a scorpio, but with the time changes i'm not really sure)
