    Okay, i'm really excited to learn more about Xion in the upcoming game Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days. To me, she is Kairi's true nobody (kind of a theory i've thought of). Anyway, i was really bored so i decided to do some sketches of her. Another reason i chose her to draw today was beucase of the Organization outfit, easy for a beginner like me. The last reason is to help kick off my new radioplay of the upcomming game comming next month (still casting)!.

    My first Xion!

    So please tell me what you think of them. I think i really improved.

    and also... DON'T COPY WHAT SOMEONE ALREADY POSTED, IT GETS ANNOYING!!!

    I like the third the best, great work. In #1, her head is BIG though.

    I would work on the anatomy of Xion. Instead of a person she looks like a...tree. Or something. I like the second one the best, it looks the most human like.

    Also, you have a very nice logo on the first xDD

    But overall, I'd have to say 5/10.

    You've actually got the proportions pretty good in the second and third. The "ideal" human body is 8 heads tall. Just make the neck shorter (it should be about 1/3 the length of her head) and you're good.

    Her hair needs a lot of work though. The shape of Xion's hair is much different. It is shorter than that on the sides, and those three bangs in front don't go across her face, it's only on one side. Look at a picture for reference, if you have to (I'm looking at one right now so I can help out better XD). And the highlights are WAY too bright; it sort of looks like a headband. The highlights should be about halfway between the color of her hair and the color of her cloak. Even more importantly, you should have the highlights fade into the rest of her hair, that way they don't look like bars.

    My last big criticism is her eyes. Xion's eyes always look sad/lonely, even when she isn't. Study a picture of her, and learn how to copy the general shape of her eyes. And color the entire iris; not just the pupils. The rest of her iris should be around the same shade as her cloak.

    Yeah, I get that issue a lot. My personal favorite is my first version.

    I understand, i'm still learining the ropes of anime drawing. I'm using the whole bubble sketch body thing and it looks tons times better than when i try it with free hand.

    To be honest, i drew Xion's face from memory away from the compter so i tried my absolute best.
