Description
So this taught me how bad I am at human expressiveness haha. Some of these are kinda bad. Ah well~I had a hard time experimenting with expressions without context, so some of these are situations I guess. I'm trying to find a balance between cartoony and realism when it comes to facial expressions so some of these are a little awkward... Sorry, haha. I just wanna avoid defaulting to generic smiles and eyes and stuff. Hope you guys can bear with me while I try to figure this out~

Well, even if you're not completely happy with some of the facial expressions, you really did capture the character's personalities very well.
Kettleson seems like the typical good, moral-driven, dedicated hero character.
Ravel seems like the super chill voice of reason.
And Slai seems like the sarcastic firecracker who likes to speak her mind. (I hope I didn't horribly misinterpret those! XD)

Haha, I'm glad your interpretations were quite close, at least in their overall personalities So I suppose you're right about that! Thanks!

If I may say, I think you managed pretty good with the expressions of your characters rontu
Some weeks ago, I attempted to sketch human figures. But they appears so stiff I'm still at practicing

Woah, I didn't recognize you cuz you changed your icon
Thank you, I'm glad you think so! It took me waaaaay to long to draw these though cuz I was having so much trouble, and I scrapped a lot of sketches that were really bad
I need to practice too! Let's both practice!

Hehe, what an icon change can have such an effect... lol
I asked =easywhisper for making this icon.
No problem at all rontu. I think practicing is still the key to improve for scraps of all kinds. I join! Let's go practicing!!

Pfff, wha?? This comment looked so much funnier in my message center, because all it said was
I love Ravel
No punctuation or emote or anything accompanying it. I was like "Dang, she loves Ravel. Serious." lol
Anyway, thank you And I'm glad you do like Ravel so much, cuz he's honestly meant to be the most likeable character in this... thing. So it makes me feel like I've done something right
