Description I'm a fan of traditional pencil work, so I'm sorry this isn't digitally coloured or anything!
The cloth got cut off by my scanner *sob*, my scanner is too small and lousy, but I guess the pic is still ok...
There's something wrong with this picture though, and I can't figure out what. Any ideas?
Thanks!

It's hard to full view this... since it's so big. Perhaps shrink images a tad... Anyway... Quite alright if you prefer pencil drawings, since you seem quite good at it. Nice movement she has. I think her left arm is a tad bit longer than her right... but it might just be that her right is bare while the left has the "glove" on it... The rest of her is quite nice though... very elegant and fluid for the most part. Good job.

Your pencilwork is great! Maybe what you're seeing that looks off is her left arm? If you pulled that down a bit the weapon might look a bit more balanced and controlled despite it's heavy end. You might even extend the hilt of the weapon a bit to keep a look of realistic balance. Not all anime or manga art does that though. The anatomy is really spot on! The tilt of her legs is beautiful as is the flow of clothing and her hair! Oh yeah... the hair. It probably would've been nice if you got to keep the whole arc of the cloth just to frame out the picture, but I think it's still very very good.

I was helpful about art?

Glad to have something helpful to say definately! I have a feeling that it would be something BP would tell me. He's all informed about balance.

OoO! I KNOW!!
Well. I probably don't. But I like to pretend
Ahem. Everyone has noticed the stiffness...although I haven't read all the comments so I don't know if
a. This is indeed the correct answer/solution to your problems ( I don't know which .o
b. If this has already been solved.
Ok...I think..
Ha ha...suspense.
Anyway. I think..its the spine. It hould be all curvy and..elegant and...not stiff o.o She looks like hse works out, so you could make her more bendy..though you may have to change the head and such...
Lmao this is only useful if you plan to draw it again isn't it...XD
Still counts as help though o.o
Oh and I looove the blade she has! Kinda like a cross between sword and spear ^_^

hahahaha!!! true true, but I'm waaaayyyyy too lazy to redraw it!! =3
But I'd just like to know whats wrong and you're right, I guess her spine needs to me more flexible!! Right now she just looks like something's sticking up her behind...like she has constipation or something!!! XD
Myuu thankies again for the comment!! Super glomp combo!!!

Thank you!! Pencils are easier for me cause I can erase them out when I mess up!! I like inking too, but sometimes my inking gets really sloppy so I avoid them mostly...bad of me really hehehe
Thanks so much for the comment!!

emorae [2004-11-25 03:01:55 +0000 UTC]

Whoah... I want that staff *__*

You might want to make her character... err... 'less stiff' or something I'm having trouble with that too so i'll find out about it
Also her leg is... something's wrong with the legs as well but I can't quite put it..

I am jealous of the foldings on the cloth and clothes. *__* I always had that problem XD

Nine-Tailed-Timo [2004-11-24 02:55:26 +0000 UTC]

love your style. very expressive. but she looks abit stiff. especially when shes surposed to be floating... is she floating?
but nice drawing. it'll look nicer digitally coloured.
and i wonder why your bro say your drawing s average. your drawings rock man. very original.
keep up the good work! ^_^

woa your attention to detail is very nice.. this picture is just great. I would just say that it maybe needs to be a bit smaller. It's rather difficult to take the whole thing in at once in a full view

Thanks!! I have to work on resizing my pictures! They always end up larger than expected!
