    I swear, if I ever have to colour something this pink again, I'm gonna stab someone with a spoon, or maybe a butter knife.

    Anyway, I was wondering if any of you could give me some CnC on this picture I drew then coloured for a friend? (Yea...it's Card Captor Sakura, my friend loves that anime)

    Something about it seems kinda off to me, and I can't figure out what. Besides how pink it it, I think I must have messed up somewhere in either the shading or the lines. Can anybody pinpoint it and possibly give me advice for next time? It seems like it's a few small things that together make it not quite right. >_<

    Thanks.

    Thanks.

    Yea, it looks like you're right. I think it maybe because the eye is so huge, I'll try to work on such things next time I get a chance.

    It's a cute pic there. I like the shading also! It's a great picture and overall it's a very good job you did.

    It is VERY pink... *cowers in corner* pink is scary... anyway... Yes the ear isn't proportioned correctly and something else I noticed was that the wrinkles near her stomach are a little off in size. Other than that it is very well done! I think its pretty! ^^

    Eyes are a really minute bit too close together and the ear is positioned wrong. Nothing seems egregious or anything, so I'm gonna end it here.

    Eyes are not evened out and this is also the case with the breasts which also differ in size and shape, the ear is too high and too close to the face and the wrinkles on the clothing look rather unnatural.

    Other then that it is ok I guess, keep working on anatomy and whatnot.
