Mh, nice pose and outfit! Very sexy! I like the top a lot and you put in lots of details.

For C/C: I think even with perspective the feet are too small. Also, the face frame seems not big enough for the eyes. But the whole pic works together very well. I think I would really like to see this in color. Are planning on coloring it?

LOL...Yeah the feet are a little to small, The funny thing about that is I ran out of room on my paper..:)  I was having a really hard time with the face, I did get better withe the body but now I need to work more with the facial feachers. It is hard to do small things like the eyes on paper, When I do the eyes they usually become to small and I can't add color...I just have not been able to find a happy size yet...And yes I do plan on coloring it...Oh yeah almost forgot I thought the face frame was off a bit, Is there any thing you could suggest to help me fix it?????   ;D

I so understand you! I always tend to run out of paper. I just draw too big. *sighs* My current action shot for the fanart calendar is the first pic in a long time with which that didn't happen. So concerning the size problem, I's just suggest dull practice.
Concerning drawing a face frame: I personally start with the face frame. I draw figures sorta traditionnally. Meaning that I start with a round shape and just build the shape of the face up from that. I also add the typical horizontal and vertical line in the face. I place the eyes on the horizontal and nose/mouth on the vertical one. Should I ever get to it, I will try to post a step by step here.

I  have the same problem. >__< then again, I'm just not good at scaling things so they tend to take up waaay to much space.

As I said on soc, it's beautifully done. You've gotten so much better. =D

Indeed! Particularly love the halfway barren landscape. It fits so well, concerning how many planets she visits. Concerning the face, i have the same problem when working from the front. From the side I rarely meet that problem... there I meet the never ending problem of making the face features sharp or not. Another thing I do is to make the neck lines first.

That would be great Treefox, Can't wait to see it....And Thank you!!!! Awwww Thank you Nilla you are to kind and I love your drawings so don't pick on them....:)  You like my holt for the Skyskimmers? I was thinking of adding some plants like cactus. The face is the hardest part for me, and the profile of the face *OK just forget it*.  I have noticed that a lot of people start with the head and work there way down but this might sound crazy but I start with the waist. It is easier for me to do that...:)  Thank you very much for all of the help....:)

Well, to me I guess, there is no absolute rule for drawing. In the end I think you should draw in a fashion that is fun and comfortable for you. For me it just worked out fine doing it the "classical" way. Meaning starting with the head and building downwards from there.
