Description It always amazes me how people find such fitting titles for their artworks... I feel so ridiculous naming them most of the time or I have no idea what to call them. I can't call all of them "stuff" though, so you'll have to deal with my very creative title choices for now ^^

I've been kind of busy with school lately (I feel like I'm always saing that) so I'm going back to doing portraits of various of my OCs to destress. I feel like I still need to improve a lot in my painting technique, especially rendering different materials.  

More practice with Photoshop, any feedback is, as always, appreciated.

You....should totally name them all stuff XD I feel that could be rather amusing hahaha 

I also have a hard time giving my pieces a title. It's usually very simple....including the name of the character I'm drawing haha 

This piece looks absolutely gorgeous~ It has such a soft feel to it. I also enjoy how you are able to make hair look so dang silky! And those eyes! Super alluring!

I could do that, but I huess I'd just feel super ridiculous about it ^^
Including the name of the character is a really good idea, I'll try to keep that in mind for next time.

Aww,w thank you so much! I always tend to spend most of the time on colouring the hair and eyes, they're my favourite parts.

Hahahaha Not to mention it would be so hard to organize the files. You wouldn't know which stuff goes with that XP
Just name them...
"The girl with pink hair"
"Gravity defying hair tot he max"

Or something ridiculous like that haha

I can tell! The hair and eyes are usually what I notice first whenever I look at your pieces ^.^
I sometimes get annoyed with how long hair takes for me to ink, shade, and highlight. But the result is always worth it! I actually don't spend a lot of time on eyes though O.o

True, it would be terrible, you'd always have to open a file to be sure what exactly it was. 

Yes, sometimes hair can get annoying both to colour and ink, because it never looks as fluffy as in the sketch afterwards. 
But still, I probably prefer sketching over inking or colouring in general. 

I don't tend to spend much time on them either. Mostly they are just too small to put much detail in or are finished quite quickly even though the amount of detail is similar to other areas of the picture.

Sketching is pretty awesome. I need to work on making sketching pretty enough to post so that I don't have to finish all of the pieces I put out there ^.^ It would amp up the amount of pieces I can post too~

Have you ever thought about putting an artbook together? You utilize colors so well and I imagine it would be really cool to see them all together. Perhaps attaching some stories to select few while others you'll just have the image.

I can relate to that, my sketches are way too messy to show most of the time. 
But I'd love to see more of your art, even if it's a bit messy

This is the nicest compliment? Thank you so much <3
No, actually I haven't. I don't thik anyone would really be interested in that, but I really love the idea. 
Maybe once I'm better and have some more followers I can try to make that a reality.
