Description
Edit: Okay, uh, kind of made it transparent but left a border (I did try to erase around her hair but... blegh.)Honest opinion, guys, is it better like this, or just left with a white bg?
P.S.; new title that's been up for a while (just in case you saw it when it first popped into your inboxes, XD) I like it much better. I wish I had thought of it ahead of tiiime~
Just because I feel I haven't coloured for a while, I finished one of those sketches that I posted earlier, yup.
She'll be my monster girl of the month for June, I think. Since I can't imagine designing any more with the time I have currently. XD
I'm thinking her name is Flossie. Because, how those highlights scanned (read: very boldly) made me think of candy. And that led to candy floss. Which isn't shiny but... yeah.
White background because... that hair! I really don't want to have to deal with that right now, transparency always kills the hair I draw unless I invest more time in hand erasing it than I did drawing, inking and colouring it.
Expect giveaway prizes soon, though, peoples. c:
P.S. bonus points for those who know what form of cephalopod she was somewhat based off of~

She's actually based of of the vampyroteuthis, which is my favourite cephalopod. Good guess, though! n_n
Thank you! c:

Excellent work, as usual. I love the way the skin looks so slippery. I'm going to guess that she is a vamproteuthis, the vampire squid, because of the tentacle webbing and spines

Thank you very much! The highlights actually have more of a wet, slippery look in person. I find it rather funny as she looks almost candy coated in this scan by comparison. XD
And you are right! The vampyroteuthis infernalis is one of my most favourite animals. c:

Yeah, they're my favorite of all aquatic animals, if only for their name and appearance. You draw anthro cephalopods REALLY well.

Their appearance is pretty spectacular, I just love the cirri they have. c:
Thanks! I'm really glad you think so.

Oh my! She is down right beautiful! I love the hair style! And the white background isn't that bad as it lets the hair stand out :3
I'd take a guess as to which cephalopod she is based off of but all I can think of is the giant squid n_n;

Thanks so much! I tried to cut back on the white space a bit just to remove that boxed-in feel, leaving a border so her hair isn't ruined. I'm hoping it looks a bit better this way. c:>
You're close; she is of a deep-sea variety. c:

You are very welcome! I think you've done a great job of removing that "boxed-in" feeling as you've said. I like the cute little bubbles you've added c:>
I think it looks amazing!
Hmm, well I guess I'll have to do a bit more research XD Unless someone has already guessed it c:
