Description Okay.
First time coloring in this style x.x
Please be honest about how it turned out.
Honestly....I don't think I did a very good job with this.
But...I'll leave it up to you guys to decide that.
Hehehehe, sorry for the lack of a background. XD
I'll learn someday to put a good back ground.
Or maybe I'll fix it tomorrow and make it all pretty and repost it.
x__X

And...
I stayed up too late. I have an AP test tomorrow and it's 9 minutes to 12 x__x
Ah well.

Comments and Suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Hehe she's hot *shots* *auto-resurrect*

I don't know why you aren't proud about this one either T_T. It is really wonderful, even without a background (well, the rectangle thingy is considered as a background in my "notes").

Like I said previously, you do more details for the hair now, same goes for the eye. The iris/pupil looks a bit "Kingdom Hearts" style if you know what I mean, which I think it is very cool . I like the way you do the lips. I see a bit of pink X3. I don't really know now if I like the way you draw the lips here or in your previous style XD;;...

... Sometime, when there is a blank background, I don't even know what to do, not even a rectangle like you did .... --random fact--

Anyway, I would like to point some things out. I think that there is a bit too much space between her legs since, you know, they are crossed? XD? Of course there is naturally a space, but in my opinion, it's too large. I don't really know about that, but I've seen many drawings that people add a bit of the butt between the legs, you know what I mean? Anyway, the next thing is about the shading. I tend to do it simple, so I'm not sure if what I'll say is right, you just have to tell me. Well, I think there is too many variations on the shading. What I mean is that, looking at her eye reflection, the light source comes from the left. However, from the shadows on her body, it comes from the front (?). If there is more than one light source, I think it's okay.

Um... About the shading thingy I just said, I'm really sure I'm wrong. I am not good at analyzing this type of shadowing XD.... Great work ^^!

P.S.: Do you intend to use this style of eyes, lips, etc for all the characters you draw? I know there would be some variations, but you know what I meant X] What I would do is to use "these" eyes for some type of characters, and the other, big, round eyes for other. The face structure shows the type of character sometime. You can compared the way I draw Nyx and Ayumi for example

x__x I don't know x___x I just...don't like my drawings very much x.x;;;; But thank you so very much ^^

Yesh, I love Kingdom Hearts....so very much XD *is an addict*

Yeah, I noticed that After I was done coloring....of course x___x;;;;
Hehehe, I'm not very good with shading and light sources yet x.x *still learning*

As for your question....ummmm...like I'll tweek it a bit for some characters...but it's going to be the same style...if that makes sense x.x;;
Okitay, I will go check them out ^^

I think that maybe you are too hard on yourself and your drawings o_O. It's as if you try to take the flaws and consider them as something really big that would make the drawing bad XD. I was a bit like that before, but now, I stopped to think like that because I thought that, to be more determined on progressing, I must at least love what I am doing right now. That way, instead of doing something better because I think the drawing "sucks", I prefer to do something to surpass my "limits". I have more will in this case.

Thank you for mentioning that ^^

Box-san [2007-05-15 07:03:08 +0000 UTC]

In my opinion, I think it's really nice Your previous submissions were quite good themselves, but your new style seems to have more definition. This one in particular though, the shading enables you to see which angles her body is in. Her right wrist seems to be sticking out more and slightly resembles the anatomy of a foot, at first glance, though it obviously isn't. It might just be so because you can't see the rest of her hand though. Also, the shape and position of everything from her hips and down make it hard to see if she's sitting on the border of the picture or standing. Over all, it's a really nice picture I think your new style is great. I especially like her eyes, nose and lips. Cute hair too. Keep up the great work!

o_o Oh dear *looks at the wrist* I can see how you would see it as a foot X___X; *dies* I'll have to make sure to watch out for that next time. Thank you so much for pointing those out ^^
