Description I'm pretty disappointed in how the coloring turned out, but Oh well. The colors themselves look nice... I guess.
Anyways, this is like... a chibi version of meh in real life kinda....so ye.

I do commissions!

to : I'd like more help on coloring (mostly the hair) and I'd like to make sure my overall "anatomy" is sorta o.k. (I know it's a chibi but, I wanna know if the legs are to far apart from each other or if the arms aren't tooo awkward.)
-Thank you to whoever did this for me!!

I think this is really nice, even whem I'm not a fan of that coloring technique where every color reflects on each other, makes me feel like their skin glows alienly
But the thing is, I'd like to help, yet I don't get the problem, besides a tiny bit on the anatomy (which other have already pointed out), what kind of coloring do you want? Because, as it is, is pretty

*hack-cough* I know this looks so weird. It's pretty old as well; I'm deeply ashamed of it, and yeah i see what you mean by the reflective-color-thing. I saw a bunch of popular artists do it and thought it looked cool :/. The anatomy here is pretty awkward for sure. And I don't know what i was leaning towards here. I'm still pretty new to the digital art scene so I'm open to anything really. What coloring style would you suggest or prefer?

Hi again and sorry a thousand times for answering this late, life's been busy this last months

I think your coloring style is perfect as it is right now, just the reflecting light is what bothers me, I mean, her hair is an extension of her skin instead of being reflected by light, as if her skin was a bulb whose light goes through her hair.. How about using a different color for those reflecting lights? I understand that color theory with materials projecting light on each other, tho I think it needs to be more subtle, more blurred because skin is very reflective while hair absorbs light efficiently as it is darker... In any case, her skin would get darker because of the hair, what do you think?

That art piece itself is actually quite old! (For example the way I draw hair and noses has definitely changed.) 
However, thank you for the attention you took in as you looked at my art!

I totally have the same issue with coloring. The single colors are so wonderful. Brilliance, saturation and hue are just but together their don't always match TT_TT. In this pic there are mostly two dominating colors: blue in her jeans and red in her eyes, skin, hair, background. The blue jeans is a very strong eyecatcher since it stands out against the other parts. But you want the audience to focus on the face or genereally more on the whole character. Isn't it? When you reduce the red dominance and set the eyecatcher on another part plus a neutral color in the background(yellow, green with the same brightness as it has now) your cute chibi will look even more kawai Keep going!

Ah! Thank you for the wonderful advice!! I never know what color I should use for the "background" if I even do one.  I have so many color problems ._. in this case all the colors clashed. Thank you again! I'll remember what you said next time i'm picking colors!!

Hello!!
First of all, I love the way you lit everything, it looks very cool!
I would say shorten her neck and head; the neck is as long as her forearm, and I'm sure you did that to balance out the head, but it's a bit oversized.  The forehead is also a little bit large.  Also, you did a wonderful job on the hoodie, but the jeans have no wrinkles at all.  That may help any issues with anatomy you see.  I also think her left arm is significantly longer than her right.  I liked the colors you used for the hair, and I'd recommend you play with a sharper brush and saturate the highlights more!  Hair tends to have a lot of contrast.
Good luck!

Thank you for your input on my art!

Hmm, Yeah, I always have trouble with necks... like, they're kinda the basis of the rest of the body. That thought stresses me out.
Well it IS a chibi XD. I'd think there would be some distortion of some characteristics. Most of the common ones are the head and the eyes.
But, I see what you mean. I also think the forehead is quite large. But, whilst I was drawing it I thought it was just because of the way he hair was parted.
Yeah, I didn't really know what to do when it came to the jeans. If I were to put any wrinkles I wouldn't know where they'd be. ._.
Dang, I was sure the left arm was decently proportioned!
Ah, so that was why the hair looked extra unnatural.

Thank you again! I'll try to remember what you said next time!!

From the hands, the chibi looks like she is trying to balance on something. The shadows and highlights are good. So is the rest of the artwork!

Yeah, I'm not very good at posing. Especially the hands XD. I still feel I'm very much of a beginner, so, thank you for the advice!!
