Description woo crappy handwriting ftw!! This was a little doodle of my character Frigg. 'Splain the smile even though she's behind her sad theme lyrics. It's pretty forced, but her hair kinda obscured the shape of her eyebrows so meh she looks too happy and there are bugs all over my frigging computer screen omigod get them away aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Sorry, got carried away.

Frigg's Theme song.

Read if you want to learn about the character, if you don't skip.

She's a tough kid. Grew up fighting pirates all her life. When her dad died in a raid, her mom packed up Frigg and her two other siblings and took them to a closer inland place (be aware inland in this story means less open sky, more cliff and whatnot) and remarried. Frigg is currently the eldest child. She works two jobs and attends the most prestigious Pilot school in the world. A lot of her money goes to feeding the extra mouths that have come to her house. She doesn't really get much attention at home, but she doesn't mind so much (or so she thinks) and she relies on her pet dog and her boyfriend (one of the top pilots at the school, and he's not too old or too young) for comfort. Frigg finds her life to be hard but a little perfect until the day she is dumped by her boy for a freshman, sending her life into utter chaos. She decides to skip school the next day to go wind-boarding ( a really cool idea for the story) and ends up having a run in with a pirate crew. She is a good enough pilot that she manages to get away with minor damage....

She really is pretty. Reminds me of the character Katniss from the book series Catching Fire. The outfit matches her well, too. Sad background, though.

She's really pretty! And I love this uniform you've concocted for the pilots. I think your 'crappy handwriting ftw' works to your advantage. It puts some chaos behind this forced smile and your words are legible enough that the smile looks out of place beside them, so they help put the mood in her expression, if that makes any sense at all. I'd've liked to've seen her legs go all the way down the paper, so she's /not/ just floating in a sea of text, but that's me. >_> Also, I'd love to see a little sway to her braid, give it some life, even if it's just a gentle curve. Right now, it's too stiff, and it keeps drawing my eye, which is annoying. D:

Your coloring, as usual, is AWESOME, and I really love that blue and yellow against her skin, and that necklace is really cute (these are things I didn't say when I didn't comment on your other drawing of her. ).

Also, the boyfriend needs to die be smacked. Jerk. ~_~;

Okamichu In reply to ixris [2010-06-18 17:11:15 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! She'll be drawn in the uniform quite a bit until I work out how some more outfits. Well, that's the best thing I've ever heard about my handwriting setting a tone. Usually it's "what's that word there?" "It." "oooooh. Okay thanks. How about this one." "Give it back, you can't read it you can't have it." I was going to make her legs a bit longer but ah gots LAAZY. S'what I do when I draw things at 12 at night. I agree with the sway to the braid, why I didn't think of that, i'll just be immature and say "IT WAS LAAAATE." But yeah, no exuse, I'll fix it next time.

I"m glad you like the colors And the necklace, I'm having issues with it, so I'm glad it came off well!

Yes. Yes he does. True high school drama there.

I'm pretty good with handwriting. My father and brother have EPICALLY terrible man!handwriting, and my best friend has chicken-scratch for cursive. D: Imagine that. So I'm pretty good at deciphering. But yes. It totally sets a tone. ;

Lol, terrible things happen when you draw at twelve at night. Things seem like a good idea, and later you're like "WTF IS WRONG WITH ME!? D: WHY WOULD I HAVE DONE THAT!? OMG FML!" or other silliness. ;

I really really like the necklace, though. D: What's the issue with it, if I can ask?

I CAN make my writing legible...if I try....really hard...and esplode my brain. But I'm glad you could read it and that it actually helped the picture.

I do that a LOT. >.< I should sleep more but I like staying up late and drawing.

For some reason it just doesn't like me when I draw it. I like the design of it.

Lol, late-night drawing /seems/ like such a great idea at the time, doesn't it? XD

Which is a shame, because it's AWESOME! Dangit, necklace, start cooperating!
