Description
Hello, there, and thanks for viewing my concept sketches!Dani is a character from a Yu Yu Hakusho fanfiction I am currently embroiled inβand I say 'embroiled' in all seriousness. I update with no fewer than 3,000 words a chapter (recently I've gone no fewer than 5,000) and I update on Tuesdays religiously (to the point where I stay up til midnight on Mondays to post as soon as I can). Dedication is my middle name, it seems, but my readers are wonderful people so I enjoy every minute of it. =]
You also get a taste of my lovely (joke) handwriting in this picture. I don't have a scanner so I had to use my wonderful roommate's camera to post this. I'll brighten the image up in photoshop at some point =]
Since the things I wrote on the paper itself are nigh illegible thanks to the aforementioned handwriting, here's a readable (and updated) version of what I said/wanted to say:
+ She's not supposed to be pretty. Maybe cute in a waifish way, but definitely not pretty.
+ I imagine her as thin and somewhat bony.
+ I always seem to picture her with pigtails! Her hair is always messy and in her eyes.
+ She has lots of hair (with some vague waves going on) and really big hazel eyes.
+ She's short (semi-stunted growth) and she is not very proportional.
+ Her typical outfit is shorts and a tank-top.
+ She tends to wear her clothes a size too big.
+ Her new body is one she borrowed from a dying shape-shifter. It looks like a cross between Gollum and a character from a Noh drama.
+ It's emaciated, creepy, possibly lacking in the eyelid department...
+ Dani is not a fan of her new body's true form and tries to hide it when possible.
Also, it might be good to note that I'm more of a writer than an artist, so please go easy on my enthusiastic scribblings! Hope you like it, though. Also, this drawing of Dani is not perfectly what I see in my head. I view things through her eyes (yay for a first-person perspective!) so I don't actually think about what she looks like too often. I want people to see their own versions of her in order to relate to her better.
Anyway, enjoy!

Hey Graph, it's Bi Gay Straight Who Cares. >)
I'm borrowing my cousin's computer right now and I wanted to say awesome picture of Dani!
I was disappointed when I finally got done reviewing your stories, so now I'm looking at your pictures. >)

I don't know why but I always thought her hair would be hanging loosely or in some sort of messy design but pigtails is definately in there somewhere. Also thought she'd be really pale. Mind u this is the idiot ur talking too. (weird smiley face with it's tongue sticking out)

Lol, I think she's really pale too (I just have trouble expressing that in a drawing XD). The pigtails would be the very, VERY loose kind because you're right, loose hair does suit her.

I love how you made her body's true form look(sorry, but it's my favorite part of this drawing)

I pictured Dani looking like this. <3
And I do not blame her one bit for hating her new body. It's hideous. xp

Wonderful, the drawing is so great!! and you say you're not good... I'm glad you decided to portray her. It's just slightly how I imagined her. only the long brown and messy hair and her bonny figure. I don't remember imagine her with hazel eyes thought [link] Her demon form is... surprisingly, almost as I picture it... well, I imagined her with yellow to orange skin, more like Kyo's true cat form from Fruits Basket.
Anyway, good job you did.

that thing is HELLA CREEEEPY!
I'm not harping or anything, but what's wrong with her foot? I can't really tell.

I'd always been picture it going all the way up her calves. poor reading on my part.
that sneaky sandal.

Well, it's only on one leg. I tried to do a little discoloration but it all but vanished in the photograph. Sneaky indeed... veeeery crafty.
(Also, thanks for commenting =] Made me very happy.)

Of course! I'm glad it made you happy. And the picture is great, I don't know if I actually said that before.

Such a fan of Dani's! Great job on drawing, its not really my forte either, hahaha Sooo different than what I imagined, besides the nose and frail body. The shapeshifting form really is a horrific sight, much uglier than I had thought. But I still loooove it~! Hmmm, could I perhaps make some fanart of her?

Graphospasm In reply to DoilyRox [2010-04-27 22:19:29 +0000 UTC]
I'd welcome any interpretations of her =] Thanks for commenting! What did you picture her as? (*is curious*)

Yukari-Ookami [2010-04-27 19:46:53 +0000 UTC]
Wow. O.O That shapeshifter looks creepier than I ever imagined. It's not humanoid-looking at all! No wonder Dani hasn't tried to experiment with her shapeshifting abilities!

Graphospasm In reply to Yukari-Ookami [2010-04-27 22:20:34 +0000 UTC]
I thought that if her shapeshifting body was at all cool-looking it would close down many avenues of character development. Don't want everything to be roses and sunshine, lol. Thanks for commenting!

Wow! I'm really amazed at the demon shape shifting thing! I'm so tempted to draw Dani myself, now that I have a visual of how she'd look like. May I get permission to make fanart?
(If I can even find a way to get it up, having no working scanner. XD)

Heh, I figured she'd look different to a lot of people. The way the human brain interprets things is so fascinating!
