Artist's Comments: I would like to improve my facial features, especally on ladies.
I also like to draw with pencils, doing shading, or often outlining with ink to get scanned.

Jen Zee Says: Oooh! Cool! I love the style ^_^. It's kind of that real
comic-ie style that over eccentuates (okei, spelling error there...sorry ^_^)
things but in really cool ways! Haha, neat!
Okay, in any case, on to the advice...As for facial features on women, I don't
think what you have is too bad, but there are some things you may want to consider.
First of all, the eyes don't have to necessarily be big in order to get 'female'
across. You can size down the eyes a bit, and add thick lashes (think...Magic
Knight Rayearth/Clamp ^_^)with lots of glimmer and shine to it...not too much
though! ^_^. I'm not sure if that's your style so just ignore that if it is ^_^.
For your drawing, you may want to space the eyes a little bit farther apart as
well. The mouth, try making the 'upper lip' (or the 'line which is the upper lip'
when it comes to Anime ^_^) either straight, or slightly curved upwards to get the
'wild/happy' expression across better.^_^
As for the rest of the drawing, I love the bright colours ^_^, and that tail is
just too too too cool! ^_^ Haha...bye! ^_^

Dragonfly Says: Hoi Sneakers! This is a pretty cool looking Breath Of Fire 2
fan art you have here. Overall the piece looks pretty good.
A few things you can maybe work on in your future drawings, wuld be trying to add a
background to the piece, instead of having a flat color gradient. Another thing to
be careful of, is the way you did the shoulders. They're kinda hard edge, and
should be more rounded.
That said, you've got a pretty good piece here, hope to see more in the future!

Lorelai Says: Yo!!!! You know, I've seen this picture a LOT of times.
^_____^ I guess you're just lucky or something *giggle, j/k* cuz the pic seems to
follow me around!!! Anyway, lesee...GREAT composition, great expression, great cel
style coloring. Wow, what is there to critique? Her eyes are a big shifty...the
right one (our right, her left) seems a bit slanted, probably cuz there's no
eyebrow to assure us that you haven't skewed it. the other one (the one that's
shut) is really slanted too...stylistic thing? ^_^ if it is, ignore that previous
statment!! Her nose is a bit small for her face...and the mouth is really low.
there should be adequate space for a chin ^_^ and from our particular angle the
mouth wouldn't appear to be so triangular...check it out in a mirror ^______^ man,
it was hard to nitpick this picture! you did a superb job. it's GREAT~!!!!!
