Another manga artwork I created...drew this today.



This one took roughly 3 1/2 hours, drawn with ink and coloured with pencils. Critiques, comments, questions, all are welcome.

love the water and lighting effects.
love the dress details and contrast.

skin colour is incredibly pale for a night time setting.
sky colouring round the objects (mountains and trees) are a bit sketchy, the water is fine (to an extent).
the hair is incredibly "perfect", but meh...

all in all, good job with everything Raspberry!

That water is really good.

I think the character could be more fat. She seems too skinny.

Perspective is great.

I love the hair.

The dress is nice.

The face seems a bit long...

Well done.

Excellent water. Something like this would take me a million hours to do, so I hate to critique it, but here goes anyway.

Everyone you draw is anorexic. This isn't bad per se, but it's kind of odd.

You did a good job with the right hand (i.e. on our left). Her left hand (on our right) is awkward.

She should be further forward in the water. It looks like she's a giant.

But... yeah, really good. The light reflecting off the hair is a nice touch and the clothes folds are done reasonably well, which is hard to do.

Everyone has mentioned stuff about that water and the lighting. What I find particularly impressive is the distant objects being misty and blurred. The background looks real, yet the girl needs to be fed. Razz

It's too late now, but I wish the sky had more detail... And yet, this is your best work yet.

Her face bugs me. It feels like her mouth should be a lot bigger, and I think her eyes are a little too far apart.

You guys are acting like you've never seen anime drawn by a girl before. All girls draw anime chracters freakishly skinny, because it is what they think the ideal woman's body shape would be. Now to you it might look like a concentartion camp survivor, but to a girl who is into anime, that is what the ladies are supposed to look like.

Looks real good. But I agree with Uncommon here, her eyes seem a tad too far apart. And the moon seems like it could be just a tad bigger. I like the water a lot. I suck at drawing water so I suppose I can appreciate it. The distant objects look real good. I like the way they get darker the furthur back they are.

I really really like the landscape in the background, but I agree with Uncommon, that she seems very skinny and two dimensional. The dress is beautifully drawn, but it could just as easily be hanging in a closet as being on a girl, in my opinion. The water, and sky however, are perfectly.

Shoot, man. I think it's awesome that girls are into drawing anime. Most girls I know think I need to grow up because I like anime. Raspberry!

Anyways, great artwork, Silent.
