??? I actually didn't have a hard time at all with the bandages...in fact, drawing nothing but mummy wraps made this a helluva lot easier IMO because all I had to do to fill in the outline was draw lines all over.

I probably would've had a much harder time drawing ordinary clothing come to think of it...

The eye and the tail were what really gave me a hard time ironically, lol...

I meant more tedius than difficult there. >_> I mean, I remember getting annoyed just trying to do it to a forearm and not make it just look like a bunch of horizontal stripes.

o_o Wow...maybe my art ain't so shabby after all...

If bandages are no problem for me, then it looks like I'll be starting with mummy wraps as my wardrobe. x3

Is this the thing you were looking for the eyes? Doesn't look that hard at all, dunno why you needed to ask for help.

Burke, is that you? How'd you find me here? O_o

Anyways, yes this is what I was trying to work on the eyes for. I just wanted to make sure I got the anatomy on the eye right but I managed to get it right. Best of all, Jasmine's happy so that's good enough for me. :3

I can find anyone I wish, it's not that hard when you're a cop. ^_~

Hee hee, glad you like! ^_^

I figured I'd use a pose that I thought went well with a mummified figure. I was kinda shy at first when I got the outline down, but as soon as I added the bandages, I realized it would come out alright. :3

The hardest parts were the eye and the tail. Lol, I obviously need more practice in drawing foxtails (though I wonder how drawing a cattail might be like...) I tried googling anime eyes and saw lots of tutorials, though none of them were really any help as I couldn't find any that were half-closed and in side view. So I tried my best drawing one myself out of pure imagination...and to my surprise that came out alright too.

Had quite a lot of trouble with the penciling though... It got really smudgy in some areas and darker in others making the lines look kinda inconsistent. I guess it's due to my hands getting really tense whenever I write.

Speaking of pencils, I'd best switch to #3 and #4 pencils from now on, lol... I'll also have to go out and get some colored pencils instead of using Photoshop to color everything. Photoshop, as cool of an artshop program it is, DOES have its limits ya know.

Goodness, I should've put all this in my art description!

One more thing...

Bandages detailed? You really think so? o_o All I did was put lines all over her body, lol.

But thanks for the feedback! I'll need it for my other attempts at drawing. ;3

Now THAT sounds like the struggles of an artist! x3

::Hug!:: Trust me, Sam, keep this up, and you'll seriously get to learn real quick at this ^_^

(And I did wonder how you got the aged bandage effect, kinda cool x3)

And on the bandages, although you might not think it much, it counts which way you put the bandages ^_^ I've seen people who just randomly rush the pencil everywhere with the wrappings XD

You've wrapped me up nice and tight x3
