I'm so happy you posted all this stuff! I can't comment on everything, at least not right now, but it's really fun to see! And you might be frustrated that the images on paper don't match the ones in your head good enough, when they don't express quite what you wanted, but you can turn that frustration into energy to get even better! You're off to a really good start.

For one thing, you've got a good sense of composition, and you have an eye for facial and body expressions, and features. Those are crucial talents, I think; trim them and practice everything else! I am super excited to see more. ^^

Not saying there aren't details that are a bit "off"! But there always is, and practice fixes that (you've already improved since this picture, I can tell). There's a basic consistency that holds the pictures together; it doesn't look like anything was thrown in as an afterthought. (like most of my backgrounds >_>)

This meant so much to me, hun, it really did <3

I spent about two months on that picture. Kelly was and is a dear friend of mine and I just wanted to put everything about her I could into one picture. I picked the three things I love about her most as the focus. I picked the bratty demon girl to represent how mischevious she is, I picked her cyborg husky because the character represented the loving, caring side of her, and I wanted to show her smile. A rare thing at the time. Something she does a lot more now, fortunately.

It's probably one of my most favorite pieces i've ever done. It means a lot to me that you like it.

I need to get back to drawing lol
