She's kind of fat.... No offence but what type of realistic are you going for? Please take a good look at the average (NOT ANIME) body.
Not everyone has the perfect curves, or looks like a model.
Gaia avatars can't be drawn in a fully realistic style, for you would have to give them a recognisable face. But they are able to get 'normal' proportions.
Kudos for drawing her normal.
3nodding But what do you mean? You can't give them a recognizable face? I try to make every face a little different... gives more character.
I don't do pure realism anymore for avi art. It's takes to long and it's hugely underappriciated. (I do hang onto realistic proportions in my line art, and I really dislike anime).
That said, well done. The faces are still very rooted in anime, the chins are a bit narrow and eyes a bit... wide. But this is lovely stuff really! I applaud your experiment and hope you make a hell of a lot of gold off of it.
