New WIP
Next steps from here are smoothing out the shading, figuring out the hair, and doing the makeup.
I've also come to realize what it was about the lips that have been bothering me this whole time: the lipstick color. I thought it might have been the shape or the placement and kept tweaking with it in the beginning stages and even considered doing a clean wipe and starting over when I picked it up again, but instead I played around with color replacement and found they looked perfectly fine to me where and how they are when changed to a dark color. But being this is yours and you seemed to think the lips looked fine after I initially fixed them {at least shape, size, and placement wise}, I'll leave it up to you whether or not to change the lipstick color. Just let me know what color you want.
Really, I should have realized the whole time that the lipstick color I chose was going to look weird to me because I always thought bright colored lipstick, especially on those with darker skin, looked weird in real life emotion_facepalm
If there's any other tweaks you'd like made {such as adding some more piercings, body marks, etc.}, just let me know.

ThisEmptySoul New WIPNext steps from here are smoothing out the shading, figuring out the hair, and doing the makeup.
I've also come to realize what it was about the lips that have been bothering me this whole time: the lipstick color.
If there's any other tweaks you'd like made {such as adding some more piercings, body marks, etc.}, just let me know.
So, after literally staring at this for about 30 min, yea I still can't say that I'm against the lip color. If it was stark white or extremely contrasting against her skin, then I'd definitely have to agree with you. I'm for adding shading around the lip line to help it blend better, however. Like instead of a single color that you have, a blend of maybe three starting with the darkest shade and work your way in. Examples would be the purple/blue hues they use for ice or the new winterstorm hues. If using my normal chocolate shade works better then that's fine as well.
The fur looks -really- good and I'm loving the lineless look. As for piercings, I'm very much in love with her snake bites, but I've yet to figure out proper placement without it looking weird. Being a piece that was started way before the addition of the snake bites and brow piercings, I think it's fine not to add them. We'll save them for a more recent piece. ninja Honestly I'd forgotten about this piece until I jumped on tumblr(only because they sent me a couple msgs asking if I still wanted my username and that I needed to verify my email) and scrolled through my feed finding the WIP on it.
Seeing this latest WIP was a pleasant surprise. As I've always told you, I love your work and am willing to wait for it. I'm glad to see this picked up again.

ThisEmptySoul I'm liking the winterstorm hues so will probably sample a few of those and incorporate them into the make up.
It's always been the case that I tend to enjoy working on your pieces the most. Aside from the delicious skin emotion_dowant , I honestly don't think I've come across someone who appreciates art as much as you do, which of course helps feed my already inflated ego so... that's always a plus emotion_awesome The winterstorm hues are a nice change to the light blue/turquoise/teal/white and blue/pink/purple hues used for ice/winter items.
Speaking of art appreciation, I'm in serious withdrawal of TESxRy, whether it's in picture or written form(especially written). emotion_drool So, all I have to say is this: rain, rain, rain, storms, thunder, rain, rain, rain. That is all

Icy Reign I'm in serious withdrawal of TESxRy, whether it's in picture or written form(especially written). emotion_drool So, all I have to say is this: rain, rain, rain, storms, thunder, rain, rain, rain. That is all rofl I think my creativity in the writing department just really needs a kick in the pants. I've been drawing a blank on TesXRy interactions for quite a while, except for in relation to Super Lesbian Schoolgirl, which I mentally flesh out a little every now and then {usually when I'm trying to sleep... and often followed by completely unrelated wet dreams for some reason...}
I need to start doing more actual work on that project if I ever hope for it to come to fruition, but I'm so easily distracted these days that I may as well be a dog emotion_facepalm I started out strong by sketching out those Tesuko concepts pretty quickly and easily, but then I just kind of wandered away for no good reason stressed But I think working on my backlog is important too so at least I eventually got back to that in my wandering.
As I'm working on smoothing out the shading, I'm finding that it'll probably be wise for me to do both ab and leg studies afterward because those are the sections that I'm having the most trouble with. I remember one of my earlier WIPs, the midsection looked all sorts of messed up. I had to redo it a few times over before I got something I was okay with, and while I was smoothing the shading after picking it up again, I redid the midsection yet again. Still not entirely satisfied, but I need to keep from lingering on it for too long and worry about learning how abs work later. As for the legs, I thought I'd be more satisfied with them once the shading was smoothed out, but that ******** knee bothers me so much. I painted over it and redid the shading to look better, but now it doesn't seem to match the direction the foot is facing classified_fu
In better news, I started adding in some of the highlights. Before the highlights, while I liked how the skin was coming out, it just didn't have that same tasty look to it and I was a little concerned that with this coloring style, it just wasn't going to. The highlights fixed that though emotion_dowant emotion_omnomnom
