Description This is just some lineart. It is of Sasha, and I'm planning to ink it. I want you guys to critique the crap out of this one, okay! (But don't kill it please? lol.)

I've written a poem to accompany it.

Even in the Snow

Even in the snow
I can find beauty
It comes in the form
Of a snow butterfly

So delicate, and yet
so enduring
as it has endured
the harshest of winters

and next to the butterfly,
watching it rise
into the heights
of the ever- thick pines

She walks, the beauty
deep in the snow,
with frosted hair
and deep green eyes

she shows that,
like the butterfly,
there is life
even in this

wastelandish domain.


Hope you enjoyed it! I know I did.

She has fur, and her fur is thicker during the winter. If she wore a full coat, it would be too hot.

Thanks for the compliment though.

I really would like some critique on my art ... but you're so busy, so I won't bother you about it.

(A thought occured to me.... if her tummy was cold, I would rub it and warm it up for her. [No other words to describe it, sorry if it sounds... erm... dirty...] Though I'm not sure Blaze would agree with this action from me. lol.)

Hahaha he'd kick your BUTT!
Critique:
The eyes are a little -off...
I would recommend practicing on hair and furr...
Your paper is smudgey, but that's nothing we can't fix, right? ^^ Try shading from left to right if you're right handed. Mabey that'll help!
Other than that, I would like to say that your proportions are always on tha spot, that of which I have troubles with.
There's your critique!

I never said he had fire breath! lol! Nah, he'd just blast me with that miniature ionization projection system strapped to his armi in his debut picture.

yes, the eyes are slightly off. but, now that i've inked it, It's a little too late, maybe it's fixed now.

hmmm.... I do need practice on hair (you should have seen my earliest renderations of hair, not proud at all.) a guide would help, but I'm broke lol.

I'm left handed, and I shade downwards in my inking. It solves a problem I used to have. (the shading would become inconsistant, and look funny.)

Yes, my paper is smudgy, but I erase all excess lines in the final product.
