Description Ok, so I'm trying to update my charas and get started on them. And than things started happening... Like second and third jobs, the amount of shows I have to work on and other... fun... things. So basically, right now, I'm going to have to stick with sketches while I can. : 3

I wanted to update Mili a little. I love how simple her design is, but I wanted to add a little extra something, so I got around to sketching up this picture of her. I'm not immensely pleased with this picture of her, but it came out god. ^^

What's cahnged?

Her hair - It's now either going to be two-toned or three-toned. It's going to have a base of light purple and either have darker purple stripes with blue stripes in it or else just blue stripes in it. That's right, she's getting some highlights.

Ear-webbing - Only a subtle difference. I connected her ear-webbing because Xva's is connected and I figured it would run in the family.

Scales - Her belly scales have taken on a new look. They're similar to an 'M' shape now. She's also gained some scales on her back lower legs and on her nose.

Markings - The markings on her front legs have changed. They're still blue in color, but they swirl upward. Her white markings are still there. (Her white markings are still on her back legs as well, I just forgot to add them in. >_< She also picked up a marking on her back thigh. It looks like a tear-drop swirl with a white circle in the center. It's based off a necklace I own, that you will see my fursona wearing. Also, at the corner of her eye she now has a half-moon and a small dot in the center of it to represent her preference of the night.

I think that's about it... I wanted to do a splice of two for fun, but I might hold off. Hopefully I'll draw a few more up to finalize my decision and than get something colored.

Awww...Mili's changing? Growing up is she? You're really improving in your drawings too! I love the hair, though I want to see a colored ref of what you describe.

In the small view I thought her front leg markings had completely changed, but then I went to full view and read the description. Although I am wondering if her neck marking is gone now.

I like her belly scales, and how you did the legs too.

Well... I figure that even though she's thousands of possibly hundreds of thousands of years old, she's finally in her own body and it could use some updating love. xDD

Yea... I left out the ones on her neck as well as the ons on her back legs because I was playing around with placement. I wanted to focus on her pretty belly scales... xDD I was considering putting the neck marking on her tail or adding one of the blue swirls to her tail as well...

I guess this is still a work-in-progress thing for now, but my first step toward updating all my characters. : 3

Thank you for the comments! ^^ *trying to improve* <3

Ooh, yes! Blue marking on the tail would look good I think. Blue tip like with her front legs? Or just a swirled blue band? And belly scales are pretty yes .

Update in progress. *nods* Recently tweaked my hissi, though even more minorly than this. Sometimes designs just need a touch more as the years go by. I shall have to watch and see how this turns out then.

I really, really like her hair and the 3 tone idea you have for it. You should definetly do that.

The new markings rock. Keep them!

Sweet. So glad for your input, as always.

I should try to get something more finalized done and inked and hopefully colored... I always hate coloring, though since you have the motherload of Prismas... My 36 make me feel inferior. xDD

Hahah colored..

Thanks... For some reason... legs and feet are getting increasingly easier for me and it's still heads, body postitions and other poses that get to me. >_>

I'm hoping to try and figure out computer coloring... when I have... a free moment.... and patience. xDD
