Description
I am making a manga (or novel with a lot of pictures at least), and in doing so, I am developing my characters one at a time. Right now, the character I am working the most on is the main character, Kiala Katerine. She is the one in the left middle, so if you want to see more of her, feel free to use the links below.Kiala: <--previous<-- -->next-->
The other character I've developed well is Koji, the one on the left of Kiala. To see more of him, feel free to follow the links below.
Koji: <--previous<-- -->next -->
Miakai is the kitty... she is actually a dragon who disguises herself as a flying cat. Before you say that is a bad disguise, it isn't in their world.
Miakai: <--previous<-- -->next-->
The final main character I'm developing is Tomikai Ryu... he is the one on the right center panel. To see more of him, follow the link below.
Ryu: -->next-->
The two middle characters... Kiala and Ryu are the main characters, the two nest to them, Kojisai and Miakai are secondary main characters, and the two on the ends, Kitsuru and Miguia are important supporting characters. If you want to know more about any of them, feel free to ask.
These are six separate bookmarks, each done in pen. I'll be traditionally coloring them... but alas, my scanner can't read color correctly, so this is the best you will get traditionally... however, I will probably digitally color them as well. I plan on selling them. They will be mounted on card stock and then laminated.
Originals will sell for $5 each,
uncolored digital copies for $1.75,
and colored digital copies for $2.50 each...
That is what I'm thinking. If anyone is interested, let me know.
The originals are 8.5 inches tall, digital copies will be about 6 inches... I think... what do you think they should be... oh, and do you have a favorite? Which one?

though i think my all time's favourite would be the first one..then the 3rd and the 2nd
Kitsuru's eye is nicely shaded
in the 2nd one i really like the background and Kojisai's pose...though i'm not a fan of those hands..especially the left one 
in the 3rd one Kiala's pose and face..facial expression and all are really gorgeous!
the kimono's pattern is gorgeous to
in the forth i'm a real fan of Ryu's (niiice...a dragon
the fifth...well..miakai was it? nice shading
about miguia..well i like her dress...though the upper part is a bit to fancy for the ragged end; the background is great again and it fits the pose
and now...after gazing into this charming peace

Thank you very much. ^__^
Nice pointing out Koji-kun's flaws. I see them... don't mention my own flaws in artist comments, because I figure if the viewer doesn't see it, then why ruin it for them. 
Please color! Any line art I do, I feel it is an honor for someone to color them. Do you want a larger version of the line art for any of them or will this be fine?

the first one is such a good bookmark. I love all of them
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The first one? Thank you. ^__^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I like the first one mainly because of the "magnification" it has and it only shows like the eye and part of the face and that makes it interesting. It also combines well with the rectangular shape of the bookmark.

Yah, I thought so too when I came up with it.

Really beautiful Manic. I can't wait until you fill them in with colour. And as a suggestion, use dark reds golds and candle light colours on at least one of them! It was just the first thing that came to mind when I saw them.
Btw, do you read Death Note?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, I would if I had time because I love the art, and I'm interested by what I know of the story. Why?
And thank you, I like the golds and reds suggestion... Kiala and Meguia would look good with those colors I think.

My favorite would definately be the one of Kiala or the one of Kitsuru. They are all very beautiful though, even uncolored. I love the detail. ^^

I'm glad you like Kiala, I think that is my fav. Hard to choose though. Thank you very much
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it is definately hard to choose. And it's my pleasure.

@o@ They all look so good!~ I think my favorite is the third from the left..? The girl with the kimono sitting with fans around her? That one >w<
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Do you have a favorite one???
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
o, sorry .... I liked all of them so much that I can't really think of which one is my favorite
but if I had to choose one... I'd probably say (looks at the bookmarks for a while).... Kiala!
