[QUOTE="TheLoneGoldfish, post: 543281, member: 2645"] I like the image but someone has to nitpick... may as well be me. I feel the sword is far too long and thin. It looks like a rapier, but the length and the way she holds it makes it feel like a thin longsword. Her right arm seems to be in an ackward pose as well but I can't place it. It looks like she's grabbing onto a shoulder strap but her it dosn't convey it properly. In addition her breasts seem to dissapear once they go under her shirt. The backpack straps don't seem to be adjusted for their pressence. It's still better than anything I could do at the moment. And even with the aforementioned critique the picture has good style. --- Looking at the image once more I have a few more comments. The perspective of the picture seems to be as if it was wrapped across a ball or something (the best way I can describe it with my current lack of sleep). Her feet are being looked down upon but you cannot clearly make the jump in perspective from there to the straight on view on the upper half of the character. Also her hair seems to be flat and lacking in shading. (I know it's hard to do in Illustrator or whatever vector image program I'm assuming you did this in.) The one shade across the entire lenght of her hair makes it look like she's got a piece of cardboard behind her head. Actually considering the image is cropped to the extents of the sword, elbow and foot you probably composed the image in illustrator and exported it. In order to get it to crop the image with a bit more of a border around the character try putting a white rectangle behind all your other artwork. That is only if you feel like it of course. I hope the critique helps.... and I say again I really like the image despite my nitpicking. [I]Edit: Didn't see you announced what you made it in... heh. my bad[/I] [/QUOTE]
