do I look like a doller now? o": [victoire again.]

[Gil]

I fixed the image in the post above, in case you still want to see it

The new progress is lovely, but the abundance of details might obscure readability a little.

LONG TIME NO SEE.

STILL NOT DONE.



overall revamp, lol. more interesting pose, less detail, brought back the flower. YES HAIR IS WIP.

EDIT:

[NaCl]

I really like this, it has so much character. Especially the look on the face.

Main thing I dislike is the square form made by her torso and skirt. I know you said you were going for a blocky thing, but this to me is too jarring. not saying to make her some freakish curvaceous thing, but a little variability will help a lot, in my opinion.

Other thing is the pose. I think the best pose was the initial one you had. It conveyed a certain character very well, and especially with the backstory about your autistic sister then I think you really hit a vein. This new one looks confused and purposeless. If I had to describe what she was doing I'd say she was hitchhiking, and was guilty for some reason. Either that or the casual listless stance of some sort of hipster.

As for the hair, I like both the fro and both new styles. The fro is more interesting to me, makes the character feel more unique, but I have nothing against either new style, they are both nice.

Keep up the good work, glad to see some more pixels from you.

You will have a hard time drawing hair if you try a systematic approach like you started. I advice you to try something more impressionist to start off with, then refine. I'll refer you to my earlier edit:

I'll implement your edit, certainly. 

 

I consider this compromise.

I like the dark hair. I think the key to making it work is adding visual interest along the edges. I use some simple aa and varied line color to do this.



just a suggestion

[Gil]

For some reason, I really like editing this piece. I was wondering what a little black would do to the image. Here is my result (pixeled way out of my comfort zone, so it might not actually look good).

dgdxcgccgcxgfvsdcf I don't think I'm good at this.

Before seeing these, I'd assumed doing hair as many separate strands looked shitty, especially at this size, but it's worked very nicely. (good edit, Gil)

I wouldn't let the hair overlap the face that much, though, it gives the vague impression of mutton chops.
At some point you lengthened the shadow on the bridge of the nose, so that it ends in the middle - it was better before.
The bow would benefit from more depth/readability.

Now that the face has taken a more organic route, will you do the same with the body (ie. less symmetry, fewer straights)?

[Accident]

huh... I think it's too far in the design to change the body entirely now. I mean, I dunno, I'm getting pretty bored with it now, so I think it's time for me to say 'asta la vista bby'.



unless you find anything glaringly wrong, I think I'm finished for this piece. there will be many others for me to make look much more attractive.
