Description
A slightly creepy original piece I drew when I had the inspiration. I think lots of teenage girls feel this way at times. I think sluts are only sluts because they are looking for love.Related content

The background is simple, but I still think it's essential in setting the tone. Cool picture!

This is awesome, I love the concept, even if it is quite sad, you made a great work
The coloration is very well done, you should just improve with anatomy: try to make the hips larger and the legs rounder ^^

Your coloring skills are pretty good, I love the effects you used for the background, and the idea itself it's really interesting.
However, I think you need to improve your anatomy, there are some clear mistakes there (the thighs are too long for the body and the neck is a bit misplaced), but I think you'll improve that fast, just taking a longer time working in the sketch, flipping it to see the mistakes, etc, can be really helpful. Also, the hair will look more natural if you draw more strands and use more shades in it.
Still I think it looks pretty dark and gives the idea of how difficult is to be a girl nowadays, good job!

ah, i like the little hint of macabre the piece has~ and considering i know how hard it is to do even, smooth gradients with copics (at least, i think they're copics...), you did the background well. may i offer some critique?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!
Yes please offer, don't hesitate!
And yes you guessed right! they are copics

haha yes, i thought so! but alright, i shall offer what i have. i will go from the head down LOL.
i do believe that the hair has too much 'puff' for there to be a bun on top, and even though it can be justified with a weave of some sort, i think either the volume of the hair or the bun would be sufficient - having both makes it seem a tad odd. as someone else said, the neck is not centered, but it is not because you drew the neck wrong; you just made the left shoulder a bit wider! an easy mistake, but symmetry will become easier as you practice C: her clavicles are also not centered, and they do seem a bit too angular and 'straight' - keep in mind that even collarbones have a slight curve!

Thanks for the tips! I appreciate it, anatomy is so hard >.<

anytime! i'm glad i could help in some way c: but you are correct, anatomy can be intensely tricky. oh, hands... ;_;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hands are a real killer. I'm on full time anatomy practice right now lol. I will get this!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ugh, i know. using your own hand as a reference can be very beneficial, but usually it's the angle that screws me over. if you're ever stuck, i suggest taking a photograph of whatever angle you want; it really does help C: i'm positive you can do it!

Yeah I try to do that as much as I can It is really helpful. But I have gotten a bit better, Some of the hands on my earlier deviations like this one's [link] (look at the one near her head...) hands are absolutely tragic. I'll keep trying
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah yes, i remember when i made my hands like that as well, haha! it's hard not to want to, though, since hands are so ghastly, but study is so worth it. definitely keep trying, you have indeed improved since that drawing!
