drawn in 35 min

Is this good so far? Any thing you want changed?

patienceisoverrated (edited Mar 12, 2006)

Eeee! It's looking cuuute... one thing, the yellow and blue at the top of the socks seems too bright for the rest of the colours... maybe lighten it up a bit?

Deformed (Mar 12, 2006)

Ok... I'll work on it.

comd (Mar 12, 2006)

Excellent concept for a character. I have to agree about the blue and yellow there: the character has a charming muted look about her in terms of the colors, and the bright blues and yellows draw the eyes too much there.

For Zack

DoOp (Mar 10, 2006)

I'm working on it :\ tis for zack :D
