    Wassup everyone. I haven't posted anything in a while, so here we go with. . . . . . :eek: ... my main character. Sorry this is an old drawing (and retouched), and yeah, the eyes were a lil off when I drew her (hey come on this was two years ago!). Plus her style of clothing here doesn't actually go with her personality, but oh well, I built into her personality that she likes to dress like this once in a while.

    :( The thing with her is, I've never been able to recapture her look again. All my newer drawings of her are similar, and good, but I dunno... I base all my drawings of her on this one.

    I really like this picture. She looks like a unique and interesting character. And guess what? She looks exactly like my neighbor!!! Freaky.

    Almost same here, it's a very good pic.. can't see nothing horribly wrong with it either. This might be a personal point of view, but it looks to me as if the forehead is a bit too big...maybe should have more hair ? also the hand looks kinda long...in a strange way :confused: ..it looks like it's the right lenght, but still is somehow too long...maybe i should buy spectacles..?

    Nice pic. If there's one complaint i have with it, its that the pic is very very simplistic. Throw some tastles on it! add a foldy coat! add a background with an old man falling down a sewer!

    Well, you get the pont, anyway. And yes, the face is very good.

    I really like Tashanna too. I was hoping she wouldn't look like one of my old crushes, but she does a lil. :shy: Also, in my story Tashanna is supposed to be one of the skinniest characters (that way she'll have a hard time doing certain things), and likewise/coincidentally/probably-not-coincidentally, my old crush was also very, very skinny. She looks like your neighbor??? Is she Asian? (Tashanna is a mix of Asian and Portuguese.)

    There actually are a few things wrong with it, but I tried to fix em up a lil. I have another drawing of her that I'll put up tomorrow or so...actually 3 pics of her. I bet you'll like those. Just remember that Tashanna belongs to me. :rolleyes:

    Oh, yeah. Her forehead, well..... I guess it might look like her hairline is a lil high, but it's not THAT high. But remember, most anime characters have their foreheads covered, so maybe you're just not used to seeing it. Also, most anime characters have a thick head of hair, while in this one I made it closely drawn to her head. That probably gives the illusion that her forehead is even bigger. Come to think of it, even my old crush sort of had a high hairline. :shy3:

    As for her arm, I think her wrist wasn't thin enough, so it sort of throws you off. But the length is about right I think.

    Heheh, yeah, all my characters wear plain clothes. But they're slowly getting more fashionable. As for backgrounds, I've never drawn them with my manga drawings, I think. But anyway, this drawing was from 2 years ago, when a three-quarters to full size body drawing was already impressive for me.
