Another of my bright water colors. She originally started off as a body study after I watched 'Ghost in The Shell' (don't ask how I got here...). I wanted to give her something cool in her hands like a ray gun or something but she just didn't turn out that way. She's kind of a tough cookie, don't let the tight, bright outfit fool you. She kicks butt and has the scars to prove it! Oh and in case you're wondering, her hands are white because she's wearing gloves.

(I can no longer find the original sketch I did for this composition, so I guess I won't be putting it up.)

Love her hands!

13 Eva N. Schiffer replies: "Thanks! I used my own as models. The gloves didn't come out quite the way I wanted, but I think in the future I'll choose less skin like colors."

you really have a talent with those watercolour pencils of yours....especially that hair...WHOO!*winces* sorry i have to say this, but her breasts look too big.....she would be too topheavy and like......fall over or something..*snickers* sorry,i sounded mean there, i like the picture, i really do i think i'm going to have to try out some of those pencils.......

:-) Eva N. Schiffer replies: "Heya Michelle, Thanks for the complement. And yea, the breasts on her are rather out of proportion. I started the sketch off to do a character study and delibratly made the proportions way off from what a real person would look like. It was also inspired a bit by Ghost in the Shell (believe it or not)."

Hello there! ^^ I have to say I’m really quite envious at that colouring - I couldn’t colour with pencils to save my life.... And now on the hands topic; the left hand looks good, but the right hand looks a bit stiff, with a very small palm and a missing thumb. Try drawing her hand as if she was holding a pen (well, that’s how I hold flowers, you might do it different) and add some creases to show that she got gloves (small bumps by the wrists are enough if they are tight)

Hope this didn’t come out rude 21 It’s an a good drawing, but I have a bad habit of looking for errors on everything I see 16
