I'm still getting that different leg length vibe from this peice.
I personally preferred the previous colours because I liked that way they balanced with the blues in the jeans

I hate girls too.



Hi. I made her 6 and a half heads tall which is pretty normal for a lot of girls. Keep in mind that right on the genitals is usually the middle point of someone's height. There are people with shorter legs than that of course but you should keep it in mind anyway. Small fixes on arm and I gave her a shoulder I thought would show, also. Hope I'm helping.

Thank you thank you, that left arm was killing me. I tried to lessen the curve on the leg; did it help with the length issue?

I'm new to this so feel free to ignore me :)

Looking at it, I get a feeling that the shoulders and the hips are pointing in different directions.
Almost like her upper body was twisted a full rotation and a bit, which corkscrewed her midriff.

Is my concept of perspective skewed?

That belt has been bothering me for a while, it makes the hips feel skewed.

She does have a belt on, right? Sooo, the pants would stay on her hips, and I also lifted her jeans around her right ankle to compensate.
I don't like all the yellow in the picture, the highlights being used on the shirt are much better for the skin especially.

Yeah, that belt kinda got messed up when I was editing her arm. Although, her hips are not perfectly horizontal. If they were, then her legs would definitely be different lengths. I tried to push her left hip back a little bit; hopefully that helped with the perspective problem.

Second try. I was smart, and started with a ref this time! (apologies for the mirroredness)

interesting pose. the contrast in the new one looks better to me. however, a few issues. most noticeable is the outline looks disjointed and a bit jarring, you could make it less extreme. also, her right foot looks a little squashed.

Lots and lots of tweaking. I'm still not sure about her foot though. Is it any better?

She really needs hips.  Hips ought to be as wide or wider than the shoulders (your reference pic shows this too).  My guess is at least 3-4 more pixels on the right and 1-2 more pixels on the left.  Maybe more.

Added some pixels, but did not adjust the shading:
