Someone

Description:
I figured I should make something. So I did.
It sort of sucks, but it was fun using really bright reds to color it.

Her eyes are crooked...... :nervous:

And the way her neck is positioned doesn't look right to me......

I like the contrasts on this. They work really well. She's got a kind of annoyed look on her face. AS if she's contemplating what to say or what she's going to do next. It works, I dunno, but it does.

This is brilliant, Arpie - the colours you've worked into it are just so well-chosen.

I love the softness of the tones (they give her a real "glow"), and the sketchiness creates such a wonderful style. Her expression speaks volumes, and made me grin when I saw it in full-view.

So I beg to differ - this doesn't "suck" at all - quite the opposite! The neck thing you've pointed out is easily explained (and is the ONLY flaw I perceive): you see how her jaw juts out past the line of her neck, on the right hand side? Well, the line of her neck should follow up to where her ear is. That, I think, is what's causing the positioning fault.

In short, Arpie... I love it. :grin:

No problem, Arpie. I hope it helps - I have the same troubles!

I don't think it sucks at all.
It just has this beautiful style, I'd be quite proud of this arpie!

It has such a soft appeal, but a lovely radiance to it, it really is eye catching in only the best ways!
Don't stop, okay? :smile:
