You could always use astonishing, awe-inspiring, beautiful, breathtaking, exceptional, extraordinary, fantastic, formidable, impressive, magnificent, majestic, mind blowing, outstanding, pre-eminent, remarkable, singular, towering, wonderful or wondrous.

My style has many problems but showing age is one of the largest. I can't try to show age without making the character look too old. I give them lines on the sides of the face and it seems like I aged them fifteen years.

At least to me.

I think the main problem is that the eyes, mouth and nose are too big. Maybe next time you should try making them smaller.

^ That's exactly what I was about to say. They say that when you're born your eyes are already the same size that they will be for the rest of your life (mostly, they do grow a very little). So if you look at a 15 year old's eyes and that same person as a 30 year old, the 30 year old's eyes will be smaller in comparison to the rest of his face.

I wonder what was going on that she's talking to an intruder in her underwear…

*explodes because of the awesome*

Well, actually, the reason Regina's even talking to the intruder is because the intruder is Marcus and he didn't so much as intrude as walk into the room without asking.

Any advice on her pose? Cause that worried me through out drawing her, especially the panties.

If you feel up to it, I'd like to request a picture of Rob, preferably as he appears in the latest comics (where you can see his face). Pose and whether you want him to have his sword, his golems fist, or both, is up to you.

It's important to note that with the wording of Regina's disdain, she never promises not to stab if the reason is good enough.

Very good.

1/3 done. Exam t minus 2 hours



I took a coupe of artistic liberties on the hands and hair because the lines around there were getting a bit hard to see. Anyone see anything that can be improved?

EDIT: FFfffff doing flats after my exam, or tomorrow...

Bwahahahahahaha! The master of this thread has come to render judgment!

...Dispozition...you rock so hard I feel like throwing you my underwear in appreciation just so you can know how much that rocks.

Homo eroticism aside, the color scheme I had in mind for her is her skin is a warm brown, a few shades lighter than Roys. Her hair is more of a brighter silvery blonde. Her eyes...I like the color.

Also, is anybody sure they don't have advice about her waist and the position of her panties becuase I can't help shake the feeling I did those wrong.

Eheheh, more pants, awesome. Soon I shall be the pants master, lord of all pants!

Craziness aside, if you'd got me before I shaded the skin I may have changed it...Although, I might be able to do it with minimal effort still...I dunno. Pretty much what you're saying is darker skin, lighter, yellower hair?

As for anatomy, her right hand is the thing that bothers me the most. Her waist and that seem fine to me :P

Also, the underwear throwing comment is now sig'd :D

Yes, those colors would be best, if it's not too much trouble. Sorry I couldn't get to ya before the coloring was complete.

I honestly don't know what possessed me to do this. I was just thinking about Regina's outfit and how similar it was to Ross'. Then I figured she would complain about that in her own manner.

This is the result. Read left to right. Sorry 'bout my crappy handwriting.
