Description Apparently November 2018 is going to be my "drawing the side views of my favorite vampires" month because, after the Tzimisce lady , I couldn't stop myself from drawing other Vampire the Masquerade clan representatives. Here's my VtM playable character and my favorite Toreador: T-Bug; you could already have seen her in my earlier works. Once a freelance designer, currently a homeless fledgling, her no-life and possibilities ahead are kind of... screwed.

Hello, I’m commenting for ProjectComment  !

Let me start by saying that even though I haven’t played any VtM tabletop games, I love the ‘Bloodlines’ video game from 2004, I don’t know if you’ve played it? Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that I’m familiar with the setting, and I think your drawing does justice to the Toreador clan. It’s eloquent and the character’s expression captures the presence of a Toreador perfectly.

The black and white style looks very nice in this, it’s almost like a playing card and would look great on a character sheet You’ve managed to draw the lines that count, and I think that fact really makes the picture. I also like the little Toreador rose in the upper corner!

Then for some critique, if you don’t mind. The profile looks about right, but I would do some little tweaks, for example her chins seems to be reaching a bit too far out from her neck. Her hand could use some work as well; It seems very small compared to the head, especially the arm is quite thin. I don’t know if you did, but if you didn’t, looking up some reference could help make the hand look more natural.

All in all, it’s a very stylized portrait, and I really like what you’ve done with it 😊 Keep up the good work!

Hey! I am from 

Okay, so I am by no means an expert myself, but I am going to try to give my best! 
First of all, I like the expression you caught, exactly what I think a vampire should do! It just silently says 'Oh, you have no idea.' and I really like it. The only thing i would like to just add are the proportions of the face: try finding real life reference pictures to draw in order to fully grasp it. I, too, hate the dimensions sometimes and when I look at the art it would look nothing like the original human. Other than that, adding details to the hair and hand really do the picture good, why don't you try adding some to clothing or the lines of the face? Like for example defining the nostril further or drawing a hollow cheek that the vampires tend to have? Also, I would suggest taking time into the frame of the picture! This picture keeps constantly swaying between a sketch type of work and a pure lineart type of work
I really hope I wasn't too harsh with this. Please, forgive me if I was!

Hello, not at all, critique and pointing improvement areas it's exactly what we want from Project Comment, right? I very much appreciate the time you took to point out all these - this definitely motivates me to strive harder in the next publications!  
Definitely, there's nothing better like a second pair of fresh eyes. Thanks again!

Phew! Glad to hear it! Art is really difficult and I understand struggles just don't go away!
I really cheer for you

Well, let's start
  I think this is a good job. I like the correct anatomical profile of the face and the color scheme.
But you obviously made a mistake with the size of the girl's hand. Try to use references and study the ratio of body parts to each other.
  It also seems to me that it is necessary to make the lain thinner and more elegant.
It would be great if you made a smoother background transition. And I would like to see the shading, the shadows on the girl and a more developed eye.
  I hope my feedback has helped you.
I wish you creative success

Thank you! Honestly, I keep wondering since yesterday how I couldn't notice the disproportion between the hand and the face 
Thanks a lot for the feedback, it'll definitely help in the future works
