yes, i do watch mao-chan. and sylvie rocks my socks. that hand is giving me a great deal of trouble, though... suggestions for the background would be nice. or if anyone wants to offer me a technique for drawing hands... that would be nice too.

by the way, i'm using this reference pic.

are you gonna trace this over with the pen tool or leave it out with solids? if you want, i can collab with you to draw the hand.

taori (Apr 12, 2004)

definitely tracing over with pen tool, that's not the final lineart by any stretch. thanks so so much for the offer... i'm gonna give it another couple of tries just for the sake of saying i tried, but if it kills me i'll memo you.

that shading's cheezy as hell... i might jazz it up. doesn't work quite as well as it does in the show.

Done. unless i get pissed about the level of laziness i reached on the background. but yeah.

This is cool, not done like most artist trying anime, wouldnt be surprised if this makes the showcase.

Hah, you've only shown me MAo-chan once and still I like Sylvie the best. *cowers* Don't hurt me Miki. Lol. Anyways, it looks just like her, I don't think there's anything much you could do to improve it past its wonderfulness now. ^_^
