My exams are finally over!  So I can finally draw again oh goodness I missed it so much!

This is a more simple commission style, but I really do enjoy it! (and probably shade it a bit more than I should haha but when I have fun, I just can't stop drawing/refining things ;u; )

This is Hara, Suzu's character who is a descendant from a goddess. She is a calm person and pretty serious and composed. .v.
This lady here is actually 1.92m | 6,3' tall, so pretty big as you can see in the fullbody version on twitter! (I decided to crop the picture when uploading it here on dA, dunno, wanted to focus on the face I guess, though sob the boots and flower are cut out ;3; ) I don't get to draw that tall women often, so I hope she looks ok ;u; (Suzu gave me some more specific instructions about the desired body-type, BUT SOMEHOW I FOUND HER TOO THIN s-so--- I think I added a tiny bit of weight to her _(:3_)TL )

Hara also has albinism, so working with all that white was sure a challenge! But I enjoyed drawing in those simple colors! It's a refreshing change from heavy color-palettes c: 

Thank you again!

I love the white color palette! It's so different from your usual stuff. You handled it really well
And I think you have pretty good proportions for a really tall person! Reminds me of some older manga styles (like Sailor Moon...all the leggy goodness xD)

I also love the new style in general. They are really cool and adds a bit more. It's nice to have a face focus along with the fullbody, really gives you a chance to see everything.

And sorry it took forever to do my dutiful comment! xD
I was in Los Angeles on a Field Experience Trip with my Fashion Club getting to tour companies and fashion showrooms and have been playing catch up, so I haven't had the time BUT I wanted to get to it, cause I try to comment on everything

sakonma In reply to kireiraa [2016-02-13 22:19:31 +0000 UTC]

OH GOD YEAH KIRI SAME!! I need my colors ;u;
Actually the trick is to not paint with 100% white, but give it a slight hue of color as well instead //i used some small reds and yellows on the white for this one here// That way it's not all grey and such haha ;u;
Thank you so much Kiri! ´7` Glad you like them!!

//AND HAHAHA YEAH I TOTALLY AGREE!!! I JUST--- PUT A BIT MORE EFFORT THAN I HAVE TO HAHA like there wasn't supposed to be a bg there either HAHA BUT I THOUGHT COME ON; I CANT LEAVE IT PLAIN WHITE! LET'S ADD LINES AND FLOWERS

Your shading is so good!! Could you tell me if I got bit better at drawing anime style XD foxehhhanime.deviantart.com/ar… I'm trying really hard but I dunno TwT

sakonma In reply to CouffeNoir [2016-02-13 20:51:54 +0000 UTC]

Thank you dear! ´u`

Oh dont worry. Improvement doesn't happen within one month!! (it was ~a month ago that I last looked at your gallery I think??) Don't rush things
From what I see, your lines got more confident (??? no idea how to say it, but they simply look like you had an easier time with them). 
I would say the green in the bg is really striking some contrast with the rest of the picture. You could maybe try adding some more colors to it that appear in the rest of your drawing (like brown or a bit of blue hues in the far-away bg to merge with the sky??) 
Also from what I see you are using photoshop right?? I would suggest to try lower opacity for your brushes here and there. It will give it a more paintery feel (unless you are strictly going for anime/cellshading, with which I can't help you, because I personally prefer non-cellshading, so my advice will always be something leading away from anime/cellshading)
I dunno, sorry if my advice is a bit harsh_(:3_)TL

oh wow, ok sry, first time hearing about this sofrware! Have no idea how it works °-°
Oooh yes forgot about the mouse, ;u;

You're welcome! Just remember to have fun at it ok? Dont try to force things to happen! Art is a creative process as well, so it must come naturally to some degree Don't stress it! With time you'll get where you are aiming at! <3

You're young. Don't. Stress.  
And welp, sometimes we have to achieve things without support.... It's a rough path, but if you give up now, you will never reach your goal I guess.
