I'm not sure where she came from but after i drew her, i thought of her as being a young person with all these responsibilities she doesn't want but has to cope with. Maybe that's just me getting carried away...i think her forhead is too small.

oo her dress is beautiful and so is she. Her hands might be a bit small considering the size of her body, blah i know how annoying hands are to draw (heh thats why i hide the ones in my pics >.<) then again thats what lazy people like me do ^_^ anywho, its a beautiful picture!

*lets out a whistle* very nice! I like the shading and her cape... I dunno why i just really like the cape...Her hands are small but hands are super hard to design because depeneding on the kind of art your doint they need to be different sizes...*sees people staring* sorry that was my art teacher talking

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "Thanks! I never noticed the hands being small before so thank you for pointing that out!"

I think her right arm is slightly smaller than the left one and her hand are small for the body, but what dso i know it is really slendid and the face shape needs to be worked on! i really like the corset though is is really is pretty!

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "Thanks for all your comments! As i'm still learning stuff and can never see my own mistakes your comments have helped!"

i like the dessign again, 'tis really cool, i have hard times with meadeval (nevermind my spelling 10) princess/type dresses, inspiration for clothes comes to me once in a millenium, but 'nways that's not the point here *sorry* *ahem* yes, i must agree with Aubrey hands ARE a pain, but its just a matter of practicing, try drawing your own hands and different poses, ('tis what i do and i'm still practicing) and keep the hand sketches u do, so that if u ever want a drawing with a certain hand pose u use your hand sketch paper (yeah maybe i'm weird but it helps me ^_~)i'm only suggesting, everyone has their own way of learning ^_^, i really like her neck-piece and forehead-jewelry, the forehead looks ok to me..., and what u said about her caught ma attention, she looks like an intresting character, u thinking of developing her more? oh well, keep it up, u'll get far ^___^ *so sorry for the extensive comment*...k i'm ranting now... >.<

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "Thanks! i do find hands a real pain, but never thought to draw my own (sometimes i'm silly like that)yeah...thanks for the advice about hands. Hm...i think i agree with you about the character, she needs to be developed. Actually,i think she needs some sort of story. Don't apologise for the big comment, i like them! (i have a tendancy to ramble on as well!)"

Lovely job! The forehead and hands could use a little work, but I'm not one to talk lol ^^; Anyway, this is lovely, I adore the shading and the dress design ^_^

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "Thank you! I really should practice foreheads and hands...12"

I like this! Very nice expression, sort of far away... Her hands are too small, and bend awkwardly, by the way; this can be fixed by drawing your own hands or other people's hands (over and over and over and over...). Very cool costume design.

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "Thanks! i know the hands are bad, i'm not good at proportioning things...but i am practicing, promise!"

:-) Victoria Smart replies: "thanks!"
