    Dunno, just sketched this because of my odd fascination with wire users.

    I don't like where it is right now but as a first sketch I will most surely change the design to something else. I'm just not sure how I should change it. So if you have something positive to say I'm going to disregard it because I'm looking for ideas on how to change it.

    It's prettifull! How'd she get stuck there, lol?
    I like it. You're good at drawing wires around people.

    It would be awesome if you sort of made her look more suspended, like she was a puppet or something.

    That looks great. I really can't see anything wrong with it from what I'm seeing. Nice work!

    I saw it, but it's nice to say good things about drawings that people make.

    Something to change? The clothes. I don't really like them.

    Hmmm.... Reminds me a bit of Chobits. I would say that you should make the wire a bit more realistic instead of just lines and it should be clear as to what level they are on (as to how high they are compared to another. So more perception).

    Hmmmm. I do see some of the wires not matching when it ties around her. I see some wires straight but when it touches her skin, its like a refraction when you see one line straight and then suddenly changes angle. :/

    but you did a good job. ^^

    I've started a second concept on this using comments here and previous notions, the main thing is since wires are very hard to deal with spatially because they have essentially zero width or height, I'm gonna tone that down. I appreciate your cooperation and helpfulness wholeheartedly.

    Well, they don't necessarily have to be lines. Give it a bit more realism. Wires can be intertwined to create thick wires, so go in that direction and it may be easier to create the illusion of space between the wires.

    True, but that's a bit of a pain. I mean I know I could and should have them interacting with each other and just acting like physical wires and doing stuff but it's a lot easier to just go with few wires and focus on making them look at least a little bit better because honestly I used maybe one or two strokes for each one on average and took almost no time on placement and things like that.
