You're the one who draws the really cute puppies with the really big eyes, huh? rofl Well, I think you carried those traits over to this picture. She's really cute, but the eyes are a bit too big. It's okay, I think you'll eventually get used to drawing your eyes a bit smaller. *smiles* Anyway, it's really cute. Her shoulders curve the wrong way though (even when you shrug, your shoulders are still at a downward slope, they just curve back up where the arm-shoulders go up into the shrug). Also, your body got smaller the farther you went down. The arms are a bit too short, the legs very incredibly skinny (kinda short too, sorry sweatdrop ), and the torso is also kinda small in comparison with the head. And I just realized that she was turned with her back toward us right? Well, ummm, I don't think it's humanly possible to turn your head that far ( I tried just now; it kinda hurts to even try) so perhaps the body should be turned a bit more so you can kinda see her left side so that she doesn't strain her neck so much. That's gotta hurt. And the last thing I'll mention is that your hair looks like you tried to hard to draw it, like you slowly drew the lines where you thought they should go, which ends up kinda making it look like your character clumped their hair together using glue (If you just kinda draw your strands a little quicker and don't think about them so much, they'll flow a little better). She is very cute though. 4laugh And it does look like your avi, which is an accomplishment in itself. Everyone has problems (I can't do backgrounds or a whole lotta other stuff sweatdrop ), but it looks adorable. 3nodding Continue to draw. It's fun.
P.S. The flower on your head has five petals. Just pointing that out. Doesn't matter very much, but just in case you'd like to know....
NOTE: I try not to sound mean, so if I did I'm sorry.

awww i think its really cuteee!!! 3nodding The eyes do look kinda extra big but then again that could be what you were aiming at. Maybe less white and a little more white? smile I really don't know lol
Perhaps when you're colouring you could put a little bit of shadow into it or some folds in the clothes so it could look a little more realistic. Its really helpful to look at how your own clothes fall in the mirror. You get to see how the light hits it and where the folds are. smile but its not necessary. I think its amazing smile It looks like your avi!!
I really love it though! i know i said this before but your drawing is sooo cuttteeeee biggrin lol
