Description Been busy with things so I couldn't finish this by Halloween, but thought I'd quickly post it for some critique. :]

Kempley, my HP character, in a 'costume' of sorts. I was thinking of either doing masquerade or something Dia de los Muertos, but I figure I'd do Masquerade for her (since she's British, not sure how that matters but…troll) and draw Ace in Dia de los Muertos makeup. Since he's sexy. And Spanish.

The mask she's wearing is a snape bird mask. Her entire dress theme is 'raven' as that's her patronus. I figure this could serve as my own 'entry' into my own challenge LOL.

There's also a daffodil on the mask/headdress. Daffodils are her favorite flower.

Colors will probably be on the darker side--purples, blacks, dark greens. Was going to use green and purple only but I don't want it to look too mardi gras.

Not too much detail yet. Probably going to be intricate lattice designs on the dress and the mask. My smallest/thinnest ink pens are running out so I dunno when I can finish this. ;__;

Not sure if I want to make her older here (where she has her natural blonde hair) or have her in 'school years' where her hair is split-colored, brown and blonde. Welp.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

That's...part of the mask. o_o The areas around the eyes are dark on the mask, but I didn't want to shade it in too darkly because it's a rough sketch. I also didn't fully draw her bottom lid since, again, this is a rough sketch and I just needed to place where her eye would be.

I don't want this to sound bitchy, but next time just please say what you just said in this comment (what I mean is just be straightfoward)--because if all I get is, "this is blah" or something general, then I will never improve or be able to change anything because the problem wasn't pinpointed. I know it's annoying, but in the end it helps me improve LOL

Excuse my migraine for the lack of details from the first time. If a person is too straightforward in criticism, the backlash can be greater opposing to someone who already dislikes criticism

true, but personally, I do like criticism. Every improving artist should.

D-d-d-d-dia d-d-de los m-m-m-m-muertos Ace?!?!?!
Oh hot dayum.

Anyway, on a more related note, this is really cool. I love the thought and design behind it!
The only weird thing about it is the markings on the mask. It makes Kemp look like she's taking a shit a little because they look like eyebrows lol
Overall really cool

I usually love this kind of thing, but for some reason that bird mask is freakin' me out o____o probably because I need sleep xD
