Description This is a Glory Commission for ~songofamazon

I'm not going to lie, I feel REALLY rusty. I haven't drawn anything in over a month, and it's really weird. So, this was strange, and it didn't really come easily. I didn't go all out on the inking and coloring, I'm trying to warm up to it I guess.

Profiles are wicked hard for me anyway, so I have no idea why I chose this pose Not thrilled with the face, but the dress came out okay.

The penwork is incredible, and so is the shading and the coloring quality in the fabric of the dress!

I can rarely do profiles without a solid reference, ! Bad profiles, bad! You should be more agreeable!

I'm glad you're drawing again; this is a great character, neh? Her stance is quite languid an graceful, like a real lady, and it gives you the opportunity to show of the movement in those skirts! They are so, so pretty, and the soft pencil strokes you used as opposed to the usual vibrant, thick color is fitting for the whimsy of this piece.

I like this piece. @w@ I was browsing through the excessive amount of deviations that I need to go through, and saw this, and was like, "Ohhhh, pretty."

There are bound to be flaws that I can't see, but I love flaws in artwork. @w@ This is very lovely. Great work!

I'd love a couple picture, but I'm trying to be good about not spending money now that I'm at school, but perhaps later on again. ^^ I'm still figuring out my grocery budget.

the dress really flows nicely and I love the hair style it very pretty. I think the problem with this piece might be in the face. It's an easy fix though. I make face errors a lot in most of my pieces too.
