I'll be getting out the rest of my sketches tomorrow and I'll steadily be getting them done one by one. So stay tuned!

Until next time!

Hello, @ladymaharet 🙂

I'm not a big fan of furry, but I dig this character from you. I like that you didn't overthink it to much: nothing fancy, but everything is on point and complete. Also I like that you didn't oversexualize her. She simply looks as very adorable bae. And no NSFW tag is needed.👍🤓 In addition I should emphasize the balance of the colors you chose: white, grey and red on the blueish font seem icy fresh and very eye-pleasing.

I know It's my first time commenting you, and I know I might sound as an A-hole, but I should point out a few small things that bug me.

  1. Her hair is inconsistent. If we look at her 'front hair', we can see, how detailed it is. It almost feels like a real one. So vibrant and standing out. But if we go to her 'rear', it feel outright flat and lacking in depth. Also the shades in them are different: front has more silver in it, while rear part has more white in it.
  2. Her tail. I don't know if you did it on purpose or not, but why her tail has a different color from her hair? It may seems confusing for some people, though I am ok with it. The problem I have with the tail is a criminal lack of detailing. I know you can do details. Just look at her face, her eyes, her ears, her scarf. So why did you slack on her tail? And the fishnet under her dress? Those lines look rushed and so sharp.

As I've already mentioned before, I love your furry bae. And you did a fantastic job. I am just a person, who has a perfectionist illness. That's why you may see me as a nit-picky, grumpy and always unsatisfied chap. Will be waiting for your new creations. Have a nice day.

Thank you for your comment! :D It was a very nice critique and I totally don't think you're a nit-picky, grumpy person. Lol. You're being honest and honesty is nice! Her tail is a different colour than her hair because she's a snow leopard thing, I think. She's a bunch of different things. Cause she has like horns and hooves for feet and like a snow leopard body. I dunno. I don't get to draw these things that often. Lol. So the tail has to match the rest of her body. And I know I skimped on some detailing of the hair (I always have a hard time shading white hair because I try not to make it look silver with the shadows but it's hard.) So clearly I have to work on that. But the customer paid for a speed drawing. So I give myself an hour and a half time window to get these drawings done from start to finish. So they end up not being as detailed as my more time intensive drawings that I get to draw. The customer is happy with it so I'm happy. It's an update from her current photo reference she has for that specific character for sure.

Nothing wrong with being a perfectionist, I'm definitely one in certain circumstances too. And if you see anything else that's off in any future drawings that I do feel free to let me know, cause sometimes I miss things. And if I can do anything at all to make my drawings better I am certainly open to ideas. :D So thank you!
