Actually- the stuffed toy doesn't seem too impressed to be the point blank of her emotion :3

My only crit would be that you need to watch her balance- if her legs were pointing straight down from that position, she'd fall over- if she counter balanced herself, it would be unusual for her position. Also- a pointer for drawing curves- put your hand on the inside of the curve when drawing it. You'll have more control of your stroke that way, and its more natrual. otherwise, buy some french curves, or a bendable ruler from a sationary store if you curves are as lumpy as mine.

On a lighter note- the colours makes it a really cute sceene (this is if we shouldn't feel too sorry for her?). Don't be affraid to make your signature bolder though- its your picture Wink Its easier to disregard a signature that is carefully placed than one that is barely visible.

well i think i understand what you mean about her stance... but her stance is suposed to have a girly position. you know how the knees touch and then the calvs go away from each other? that was more or less what she'd be doing if i drew all of her,lol. yeah i had my brush on my program set to transparent when i was editing, and i just wanted to put her up as soon as possible, so i didn't bother paying attention to the signature. i'll fix that in a bit. thanx oodles for your advice Smile it's never failed me Wink

    Hmmmm.. If the knees together look was what you wanted, then it is best to put it in next time- Remembering that noone can see what isn't drawn. A picture should only cut off what isn't important, and present the important stuff. What I normally do is isolate the subject and important areas to hihglight and go from there. If I were drawing this, and I needed in a squarish pic- I'd have her on her knees, with her bottom on the ground to fit her whole stance in. If you think about it- Picture her face on 20 different poses. Every single one tells a different story. Crying face on fighter's body is an outraged fighter, frightened stance is complete terror, Happy stance is relief... A thought for the next piccy Wink
