Description
Tried making a Monster Prom character. Thought a dullhan would be a nice fit.Couldn't come up with a name, so throw some suggestions!
Tried adding more detail and going much softer on the shading. I think the leg anatomy could still use some more detail and the shading around the abs could've been a lot more subtle.

Hi! I´m from
I like the execution of this character, very dynamic with just see it even a quick glance.
What I'm going for is that it has a very well executed anatomy in a somewhat brave pose to draw it, in which it is sitting on an ounce. The advantage that his hands and his head can be separated give more dynamics to the drawing than in itself, it has a very well executed design.
Starting with that blue skin, that dress, the way the body is separated, the living expression of the girl with that "Jigsaw" smile, a multitude of details like bones like hair clips, the design of the oz , what you have in your pants as the chains ... And not to mention the design of the oz that in itself is great as you have drawn.
And of course, the drawing has a very well-designed delineation, dark colors that simultaneously notice clarity at the same time, not saturated but balanced the composition of the character and the design of the belt.
In short, I like this character design too much. Skeletor approves

Hello, I am from ProjectComment. Let me start by saying I’m a huge fan of monster girl type stuff like Monster Musume, which also happens to feature a dullahan, so I was immediately drawn to this.
With that being said, however, it is time to go into the actual review. Now, I must say I love the originality of the piece. I love the idea that not only the head is detachable from her body, but also her hands. That is something you don’t see in such characters. Normally, it’s just the head and the head not being attached to the body is the main gimmick. Here however, you added more individuality into your character and with a powerful wardrobe and color-pallet to boot. It really has a nice, confident vibe to it that you don’t see in dullahan characters. Normally, they’re shy and timid or trying to be something they’re not; here, however, you have a punk-goth girl that just screams “I don’t care about what you think so deal with it.” Excellent work. I think you have a really original character amongst the monster girl craze.
Now that my praise is over, it’s time for the harsh bits. I am not a fan of the face. The blacken eye’s okay at best, but it lacks detail and originality like the rest of the character. I think you should add some shadowy to the overall design altogether, and that should bring some life into the overall piece to real make it pop. Overall, really good work.
