my personal style preference would say make the near eye smaller, but the far eye could be made larger as well. it's your personal call xD

Ok. Besides my anthro character that I've been correcting with help from all of you. I decided to make my own avie art, since I have none in my sig and apparently can't afford one right now x_X

SO!
This is up for criticism before I ink it and color it n_n

love the stance and it's over all very solid.


watch the thumb on the hand on the right (her left). right now it appears to be no more than a stub. i know the hands are stylised but it could use a lil more presence smile also she may need a lil more wrist definition.

Hehe, thank you! n_n

Oh, fixing it xD
Umm, I gave her wrists more definition than the anthro girl, you really think I should define it more? xD

8'D Yay! Finally came home <333.

Anyways, for the anthro, that's uber improvement XD <33333! I love the facial expression and most of the areas were fixed <33. However, don't forget what pach also mentioned earlier about raising the belly button ^^.

83 As for the ava art, it's so adorable <3333 here are my redlines for it:

The face is great, I don't see anything really wrong with it since most of it like the closeness of the nose,mouth, +chin is style. However, the legs can use a bit more defining. ^^ Try drawing in the knees and her right foot should come foward a bit more considering the position her leg is in. As Dr. Euphony said, the wrists need more definition and the thumb looks very pointy. Try rounding it a bit more and curling it out a bit so that it looks like it's the thumb and the index finger in the front. At the moment, it looks like a right hand with the thumb and pinky in the front with the rest of the fingers at the back. XD;; Dunno if that made much sense, but yeah.

X3 Overall, it's really cute and DEFINATLY sellable ;D <333 Go do some business~ <333

[@Dr Euphony] Got it! xD

[@Noa] Ah, the belly button, I completely forgot about that x_X

Ok, so define the wrists a little more, mark the knee area, forward her right leg a bit. Got it. (I already fixed her thumb last night xD)

Guess I'll be working on that then

There's a very dynamic feel to your poses, and you've been been applying everything you're learning incredibly well. These two pieces show it.
My only nitpick in on your avie, and its just something to remember for later. Forearms curve more near the elbow and start to flatten out toward the wrist. The curve near her wrist (bottom side) gives it a slight popeye look. Just remember to end the curve a bit earlier and to have a more gentle slope into the wrist.

Thank you n_n
Ah, I see. I'm gonna fix her wrist around the bottom side now then xD
