Description
A character design for a character in a story I'm TRYING to work on.
The title is self explanitory. 
The queen of an African tribe. Endowed with natural beauty by God's hand. Influenced by Thomas Blackshear's "Timeless Beauty" collection.
I want to add more details and possibly change the headdress a bit. I'm looking for critique, but comments are nice and very much appreciated as well.
Edit: WHOO! I think this is coming along really nice!
I'd like to do a collab. I'm looking for someone to color this thing in when it's completed. If you'd like color this, just note me. I'd like to see how many people can color this in different ways.

I'd like to color her, but right now I'm so busy, I just don't have time. But, if it's open for coloring some time in the future, then sure

I'm really glad we crossed paths with eachother! I haven't seen such beautiful artwork, and I love how this has an African theme (I'm kind of tired of seeing the same thing over and over from the "most popular" section here on deviantART.)

Awww, thanks so much!
I feel you, I'm always looking for something new as far as people go, but there is not much diversity in art on DA.

I'm pretty sure there is, you just have to go beyond the most popular section. Some people just need to go further then their comfort zone.

I have, but it's kind of hard to find. But it feels good when you do find it.
True, just like anime/manga is the craze or something, they just seem to be scared.
Thanks for the lovely comment.

Awww.
I want to color this in, but I'm not sure with what medium. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
colored pencils are always good... or you could do a simple black and white shading deal. or pastels, but those are messy and easy to mess up with. XD
and no problem 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
xD Yeah, pastels are kinda hard for me to use.
Haha!

and then they get all over your hands and under your fingernails...

Ugggh, I know! And they're really hard to wash off too. I usually just try to wash them the best I can, and then just let it fade away the rest of the day. xD
