Description V4 sounds way too cool as just a acronym for 'volume four'...guess that's just me trying to be different. 
Really looking forward to RWBY volume four. I absolutely FREAKED OUT when I found out there was going to be a time skip AND NEW designs were already released! I was slightly disappointed with it being a mere...6-8 months? But still I wasn't expecting anything to big. Maybe a year at least but WHO CARES?!?! We got new designs for team RWBY! 
Ya know I was really surprised for how mature Ruby looked in her new design. I know that she went through a lot at this point but she seems physically older.  I'm horrible at math but shouldn't she be 16 at this point in the story? I mean I know she spent a semester or so at Beacon, so that adds a couple months...I dunno. Either way I like the new design. It certainly fits more in line with the whole Red Riding Hood aspect of her design with the new white shirt and she's showing a LITTLE bit more skin than I expected at would be around 15-16. I mean with her new stockings or whatever and the cleavage. 
Now as for this actual drawing...meh. I think I could've done better. I know volume four comes out in October and I wanted to use warm colors for a background. I wanted to try doing a different style of drawing trees so I drew a forest. The perspective is pretty off and the trees don't look that good. And the yellow leaves end up blending with the sky. Oh man.  
Ah well, live and learn I guess. Still, I am fairly happy with it. I do enjoy using warm colors as they're so easy to blend and look so soothing to my eye. Still, any other criticisms are welcome!

I Like Ruby's expression here. It's like she's seeing into V4 and all that that entails.

Ruby: Shit's about to get real.

Also I really like what you did with the perspective on this. I don't see why you dislike it. Oh, well. Different opinions I guess. Great work though

Haha, thank you very much!
I'm kinda proud and disappointed in this drawing in certain aspects. I liked the colors and the perspective doesn't look THAT bad to me. I just...don't like to get comfortable with my art. Always wanting to be better and whatnot.Just like to stay "real" as the kids would call it these days and try to acknowledge flaws that I think people would find. And then some.
Regardless, thank you for the kind words.

From seeing the new designs as well, would you agree that Blake's outfit greatly resembles that of Kaiba from Yu Gi Oh?

Although from seeing examples of the new animation software they are using, it is certain to look even better than before.

Oh yeah! It does! I can't believe I didn't notice that! Although I never really got into Yu Gi Oh.  I can't unsee that now. Lol.
The white coat and whole usage of buckles, metal, and stuff really give it away. 
And yeah man, at the very least I can see this being the most well animated of all four volumes. Really looking forward to it!

Only realized the resemblance after watching a bit of the abridged Yu Gi Oh.

Although at first I thought it didn't work because it goes against Blakes stealth,
until I realized that maybe she is investigating into the whereabouts of the original 
leader of the White Fang.

Haha. Yeah, that's honestly as deep as my connection with Yu Gi Oh goes.
And yeah, I found Blake's new primarily white color scheme to be a bit jarring at first. Mainly for that reason. I mean high heels and stockings aren't particularly useful or practical with stealth. Lol. So I looked past it.
And is that true? I've only seen the preview on YouTube and haven't read anything surrounding that! It sounds very interesting.
It certainly beats my I creative theory of a Blake tracking down high profile White Fang members so she could track down Adam.

Same, and I even got a friend hooked on it.

Well I am just speculating because that trench coat looks
like something a private investigator would wear.

True, guess we'll just have to tune in October 22 to find out!

That's not the sky! It's more trees! Roll with those punches!

Haha! Thank you, but I really try to keep my intent in mind when opening myself up on dA. I really don't like just repurposing drawings when they're already completed. 
Although the sky really DOES look like the trees...

I know what you mean. You were aiming for a sunset look, right? Maybe next time make the sky red-orange, and add more black to the trees, with the tones acting more as the secondary color?

SuperSunnyDee In reply to Traveler-san [2016-07-15 01:56:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, yeah. Honestly it was a pretty absentminded decision to not have the sunset be orange to begin with. Lol.
Maybe I just wanted to blend. But either way you're right. Thanks!

Well I think your stuff is pretty well drawn from the gallery. I really like how expressive it can be too. 
And thank you! Winter is very much in my top five. Lol.
