I don't like how this turns out. Stop adding purple to the skin, please. It looks weird. I prefer your previous Iwabuchi D:

I think purple in the skin looks good, because 1. skin has different colors in it like purples and yellows and greens, 2. because the best artists are the ones who break the shading barriers and can pull off shading with abnormal colors and 3. because there's nothing wrong with experimentation.

It's one thing to give your opinion, that's fine, but you have to be careful not to cross the line and tell someone what to do.

T-Thank you very much for the defence! XD But the thing is, she's my RL sister, so I'm used to her straightforward language and harsh crits. XD";;
Thanks once again! *amused*

Thank you! ♥ I did try a slightly different line treatment/ blending method that what I usually do (the tutorial) so I wasn't sure how things would come out...glad to know they look fine.

What noooo I-I think I've spammed enough as it is. |D";;

I think...my skin still needs work, but the rough feel of the blends came out fairly okay, so. XD";;

Thank you!

I'm surprised at how different this is - it's more streaky than your usual stuff, and a bit fiendie-like, in some ways XD!

I really love the shirt.

And I wish I had your free time D8

...I know I've heard fiendie's name somewhere before, but um, direct me to her graphic comm/ journal, please? :D";;

ajslkdjgsfd WHAT. XD Shirt is so messy and horribly done. xD";;
I didn't really keep track of the time, but I think...I didn't take more than 4 hours for this peace as it's kind of simple.

She posts icons at iconsmex too XD. Her pages can be found at royalcolor :3~

Aww, but I kind of like the whole sketchy feel of it XD. EITHER WAY, to have 4 hours of your life would make me happy D8.

And I can't even finish colouring skin in 4 hours, it's terrible.

Oh wow, I just realized my horrible typo in the previous comment. I must be half-dead or something.

WELL YOU USE A MOUSE. I'm sure that if I was in your place, I won't be able to colour a strand of hair even if you give me one month. >: (

*brings previous comment here* OH OKAY. ;; I wonder if this means that all my previous votes were nullified because of the tinge of personal bias, but I'm not sure why my stand was not valid. .__. I usually give points on how suitable the colouring for a page is, and how everything fits together. Let's say if there's a page with strong shading and highlights which means that the light source is obviously strong and glaring, but the page is darkened overall without indicating that a proper light source (a candle or a lamp, perhaps) is nearby, it sort of looks pretty off. So even if the shading is superb, I won't give it a very high score as compared to another piece which executed everything in a normal, simple way, yet looks natural and has everything fitting nicely together ( ... )
