With sex, and the sexualization of women in media and art being very iconic and everywhere in the outside world and DA community I came up with a challenge.
This challenge called 'Sexy Not Sleepy' that I proposed to *kyuumu for a test run was to:

demonstrate a female character that is sexy**, with minimal use of traditional sexy identifiers. e.g. lowered eyes, looking up, submissiveness, clenched thighs, no clothing when she'd normally be wearing some, ect.

**sexy as a general consensus, not minority or obscure. "wrinkly old ladies are sexy in someones eyes!"

It's not easy, and I'm aware of where I bordered if not crossed lines.

Although our final products came out different in many ways, we both kept par with things like confidence conveyed in our characters.

This was fun to do, and I enjoyed giving her hair more volume and substance than I normally draw.

Water was a pain in the ass that went from bad to worse. Don't judge it too hard.

Try out the challenge yourself, pass it on even. It's a pain, but a great artistic stretch to get away from the norms.
