        ♥ Skills;
        Mostly anime-des super cute style, with some realism thrown into the mix, as well as dabblings in other traditional mediums. I know my way around Photoshop (I have Elements 6, which is a pain, haha.), aaaaand that's about it I suppose c:
        Oh, I also have some puppet-making skill. Like, Muppet-style. cool

        ♥ Education;
        Taken art at school for the past 3, going on 4 years (Elementary prolly doesn't count, haha.)
        Also taken a 3 week long class twice in the summer for the past 2 years, so not very much right now, but I hope to take more independent classes in the future. C:

        I'd love critiques (or better let red lines, I lovvve them.), and I'll try to give as much feedback on other's works as I possibly can. C:

        Welp, here we goooo.

        Current W.I.P. --->

        I'd love some red lines on this if the anatomy is way bad, I've still got it editable in PS, so I can make changes and things.
        My friend said the legs were too short, but then she said that Mari (the character) was just a shortie pie, so I dunno. Ummm, that's about it, just some lines.

Sorry I don't have my photoshop on my computer yet.

Anywho... I really like the detail on the clothing and the hair. Very nice. Your anatomy is good.

Some things you might want to consider is proportions. The body and head are proportional to eachother however the arms and legs are really thin and small.

Movement looks good but a little akward. Maybe if you put the character in a chair the right arm wouldn't confuse those looking at it.

I really do like the overall look. And kudos on going to art college. Just work on the proportions. A note would be the hands should be the same size as the face and a person is 7 heads tall unless with heals then it is 8. Just something to keep in mind if you person looks a little short try lengthening the torso and legs to make sure you have your7-8 heads.

You are doing amazing. I also noticed the headshot in your sig and I really like the coloring. Soo jealous.
