Very early in the pic. Trying to work out the forms and placement of major objects, general idea of values.

You know the thing I hated the most about being 11.... you're first starting to get boobs, and as if you weren't sore already... as soon as they crop up you get a female PE teacher with a mustache that makes you do lots of jumping jacks. You're only 4 so you wouldn't know about that yet.

Damn, I really should have submitted this as hidden.
senshi (Jan 5, 2007)
I doubt she's really only 4 DBA.
Interesting story though. I'll have to pay more attention in PE. Heheh...
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 5, 2007)
NOOO kidd'n? Think she's 5... maybe 6? ;) Lmao
She has a bit of raw talent, whatever age she is.
suzy_age_4 (Jan 5, 2007)
I'm neither 4, nor a she. I've got an outie instead of an innie. I made this nick back in the day when I was playing a lot of video games, and thought it would be amusing to be killed by someone called "Suzy, Age 4". You know, like how the little kids in kindergarten and preschool sign their crayon drawings. Now I use it on most forums that a frequent, and here as well.

...suzy izza dood...wth...okay...
"outie instead of an innie"?
DeadlyBlondeArcher (edited Jan 5, 2007)
We all knew you were some kind of perverted old guy, why do you think we're commenting? (just kidding..... ummm??? are we?) hah No, really and truly I thought you were some gifted 4 year old girl named suzy that needed immediate therapy.

I have this perfect "innie" that I am almost as proud of as my pretty feet.
senshi (Jan 5, 2007)
...this is where DeadlyBlondeArcher comes in?
suzy_age_4 (Jan 5, 2007)
Hey! I'm not old!
DeadlyBlondeArcher (edited Jan 5, 2007)
I wasn't calling you old (not for real... we all know you're only 4.) HEY, Senshi... are you calling me dumb? Because, because, if you are... I'll... ummm... I'lll...*trails off*.... ok. Did I not come here to do art or something originally? I'll... go draw something, YEAH, that's what I'll do. Take THAT!

On the other hand I AM old.. Cindy keeps paint in her innie..and paints with her feet

This is slow going. And I just noticed as i submitted this the nose is just BARELY too high. I'll need to fix that.

A little bit of the body values. Also, blue/green has seeped into this picture from somewhere. I'll fix that on the next revision.

Some more hair, working on placing values and defining edges.
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 10, 2007)
She's about as close to being 11 as you are to being 4!!! :) .... I know you're "numbering" the girls... not aging them, but what happened to 1-9?

This is so full of graceful femininity... turning out beautifully.

suzy_age_4 (Jan 10, 2007)
Thanks for the compliments guys.

The other girls, 1-9, were drawn on other oekaki boards over the last year and a half. 4-9 are on my deviantart page. 1-3 are mia, i think on my drive somewhere. I don't really like how most of them turned out, but it's all just a learning experience.

Her right hand is mostly done.
fleeting_memory (Jan 12, 2007)
I love the smoothness of her face and the detail in the hand closest to her eye-rock on.

procrastinating on the hard parts that are still left to do.
hideyourface (Jan 12, 2007)
I think her face looks a little too smooth, making it look unrealistic. everything else is fantastic though
Miss_DJ (Jan 12, 2007)
Incredible and lovely draw. May I live long enough to ever achieve this kind of greatness.
suzy_age_4 (Jan 12, 2007)
Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words.

I see what you mean, and i agree. The problem is i'm not sure how to go about fixing it. I'd like to add a small amount of noise, or maybe a very very subtle noise-like texture, i'm concerned it'll end up throwing everything off. I kinda feel like the face is held together with bubblegum and luck, and if i sneeze it'll throw everything out of whack. This is one of those hard parts i've been procrastinating on. But, the original pic has a very subtle amount noise that the pores on her face create, but it's very faint. I could just add blemishes to try to make it look more realistic, but there's very few in the ref photo that I could use. The photo was probably photoshopped a bit before it found its way to me. I'll try to mess with it and see if I can get something going that looks both nice and not overpowering. Thanks for the critique, it's very helpful.

hide.. she has a face?

no seriously, i see what he's sayin' but i think it looks damn good the way it is. infact i'm mighty impressed

cmb (Jan 13, 2007)
everything is so smooth... it looks airbrushed, like a painting on a really fast car.... the upper hand is especially good, I wish I could draw like this- and Im 46!

patienceisoverrated (Oct 20, 2007)
mmm this is nice. My favourite is the texture on her arms/stomach, it's beautifully skinlike, which I think is supa!hard in b&w
Arantir (Oct 20, 2007)
Top Notch.
I'm really digging the shading on the wrists / hands and the expressiveness of the eyes. Good reference pic?
Wraith (edited Oct 20, 2007)
OMG! I am in Shock and Awe! I wish I had your talent! Then again, 14 hours is way too much for me to spend on one drawing. This drawing is so awesome, I wish I had a poster of this.

enjoydotcom (Oct 20, 2007)
Yay, it's finished, so beautiful. Did you use a reference or is this girl a figment of your imagination?
lori (Oct 21, 2007)
awesome work
deathking (Oct 21, 2007)
This should so be showcased.
suzy_age_4 (Oct 21, 2007)
Thanks for the compliments guys. And yeah, enjoydotcom, I did use a reference for this. I wish I could draw from imagination for this sort of thing.
Roytje (Oct 21, 2007)
I'm happy you finished it. It's breath-taking beautiful :)
