This is the piece that kept drawing me to it. I like the simplicity of this piece, with her character it could have been easy to over complicate things and possibly muddy it up, but a good thing about your style in general is that you seem to have a natural talent for making things easy on the eyes and very readable, it's something that draws me to you as an artist overall. I love her boots and that you gave a realistic backstory to how she lost her arm and eye. I don't know if it was intentional or not but her robotic arm seems unreasonably long compared to everything else and it's the only thing throwing me off. Despite that the robotics are well made and she's still a neato character!

Oh, thank you so much u///u
And yes, the robot arm is supposed to be rather long : D I thought if it is used as a weapon or such, why leave it short ranged?
Thank you again, especially for the awesome cc :>

Ah okay, that's good then, I'm glad it was intentional because that's pretty rad and super badass especially as a weapon.
Not a problem at all! It's an honor to give my inpu on your art and it's even more touching to know that you find it even slightly helpful :'D

It'd be pretty dumb if it wasn't, am I right cx Now I feel to urge to draw a close up on the roboarm!
You're comments have been a blast, man! All the points have been really useful, and I wouldn't mind your input later, either .u.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nah, sometimes you just don't realize how janky something might be until someone points it out X) Ooo that would be really neat!
I super glad! I would love to continue critiquing! As I said somewhere before the project you're working on just gave me a /reason/ to do it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, agree ._. I read somewhere it's good to flip your work to see any mistakes, because when the work is flipped it's "all new" to the brains and then you can notice all mishaps .u.
Oh? Then I'll have to make more reasons >u>

This one is really good owo
I love how you made that arm, and the story behind it! it's a shame she lost her eye in an accident, but she was doing what she likes, right? c: it also have a lot of really good details in the drawing, it's really good!

Thank you!
If your referring to the robot arm, thanks! I tried to make it look bit creepy and bit un-finished :> Her accident in the army was something that scarred her for the rest of her life, so she's not happy bout it at all. Even if military is something she enjoys.

you're welcome~
and yes, that thing >w>'
I see, well, it's natural to be like that after that kind of accident, after all she lost an arm ;w;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, probably. Of course, it's healthier for the mind if you just let it go ~

oh god, I remembered that song x'D
in spanish the song is changed to "Libre Soy", so it has some jokes with hares (liebres) x'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Who doesn't, really? It exploded on the internet >u>
Why would a song about being free have jokes of bunnies in it? Oh god Spain, why ;A; But it's really funny, though, I agree >u>
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
my mom, she doesn't use the internet >w>'
Because it's more funny to declare to the snow (and shout in a song) that you are a bunny and you can't hide it more~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But does your mom know the song?
.__. Does that really happen in the song? I have to listen to it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yup x'D
in the song it says "libre soy, libre soy, no puedo ocultarlo mas" that it's translated to "I am free, I am free, I can't hide it anymore" if we change libre for liebre it's "I'm a bunny, I'm a bunny, I can't hide it anymore" spanish is really funny 8D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh Spain you little thing, you cx
And 'ocultar' means 'hide' in Spanish, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yup, it does owo but it's a little bit difficult for me to explain all the translation of spanish-english, it really is a difficult language to learn ;W; (more if you want to learn all the variations...)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've studied Spanish for a short while now, and I'd like to speak it well >u> It'll take a long time, it'a a difficult language like you said .u.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ooooh owo if you want to know something don't be afraid to ask o3ob (but if I can't help please don't hate me >w>' )
even me, a spanish speaker since always have some troubles with my language, like "it's said like this or this?" or I randomly start to speak a really bad spanish and then I ask myself what I just said x'DDD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
of course and of course >u> and I believe it being Spanish and all, I sometimes have the same thing in Russia. Can we just agree there are super bitchy languages?
I'm so very sorry for such a late reply ;A; You don't notice how time flies when you're sick.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
they are super bitchy languages. and in spanish the same word can mean two different things and then there are misunderstandings
I'm also sorry, I said "I will reply this later" and then I forgot ;A;

Oh god D| I just can't even...
Shhh, it is all fine, my dear u v u

it's a strange language :'D

That bionic arm looks really cool, a tad creepy but it works in with the rest of her desgin nicely, especially where it joins on to whats left of her arm.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
aaa thank you .u.
The creepy comes as a compliment, as I were trying to have 'unfinished' look into it and all. Also, if you mind me asking, do you think the colors are all right; like are there too many or too little? Especially with the bionic arm I was struggling with the colors.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's a bit low on colours but I do like the muted colours for her look, with the arm it is a bit plain, may be a good idea to add little lights on it if you know what I mean? hrd to explin but likee just some kind of lights that show like maybe how well its working, and such, maybe something simlare to the pip boy from fallout but built into the arm/
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The whole doll is low on colors, or the bionic arm? 'Cause I added little things to the arm now and I think if added more colors into it it'll look crowded.. Also addition of a little monitor of some kind to the arm sounds great, I think I should design it into it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
those added colours look great, I agree it might look with much more in it, so yeah that looks pretty great all round now.
