    A preliminary sketch for your review. Please let me know if there are any posing, or stylistic changes that need to be done. I will make it a bit more like the sample you wanted it to look more like when i go to the next step, but let me know if theres any glaring issues before I continue. Thank you.

    @Nikomis Hey, it looks good! I've requested a gold transfer, so I'll get that to you as soon as I can. Regarding the piece, I only feel a bit uneasy about her mouth. If I could have her mouth not open but have an expression that still fits her, then I'd like that.

    However a part of me is unsure of how it'll look once you go to the next step, since I know it can look vastly different after coloring. If you think it will look good without changes, then I'll trust your judgement. Thank you!

    Hey I was wondering if you accepted mine as one of the drawings? I'd like to set the money aside so I don't spend it, if so xD.

    Stylistically its a bit more complicated than that very small doodle I did ages ago. Its not complete, but let me know how you like it and if you want things changed, I will change them. Just figured I would throw you guys another update before I go rest for a while.

    @Nikomis Hey I was wondering as well, did you happen to see my post at the top of page 2? o: I was wondering if you decided on only doing the two I originally ordered or not; I need to know so I can know the amount to get from the gold transfer, and I noticed that I'm not listed on the slots currently. Apologies if I happened to miss your reply. Let me know, thanks. c:

    Sorry there is only four slots, and one person ordered two things. I am sort of going chronologically, and trying to take it a bit easier cause i dont wanna cause more strain to a pre-existing injury. When I open more slots, I will let you know. MissFortune is actually on my server, and only wanted one drawing, so they sort of took a little priority, apologies!

    @Nikomis

    Hey, I appreciate the update! The way her chest partitions the cloth underneath it looks just a tiny bit strange to me. I'm not an artist so if you think that looks natural/normal, then by all means don't mind my comment. The longer I stare, the less it troubles me to the point that I wouldn't mind it as it is now I think. ^^ Besides that she looks VERY cute. I'm very happy with how the change to her mouth turned out as well :) Thanks for the update, and I hope you rest well!

    First of all, THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE, and sorry for taking forever. Im still here, I haven't forgotten you at all. Just kinda busy lately.

    OKAY work in progress and questions for you @Marianthi

    Do you want FULL FEATHERS, going all the way down the wing, so the bottom/front of the wing is more like a bird wing
    1LYoD8l.png

    or would you prefer what everyone else seems to have done, with the half feathered covert area?
    kXOKBdO.png

    Also regarding colours, you noted that she was "noticeably tan" Is this colour okay, or would you prefer something more in the yellow-orange vein, like your actual character model?

    hi!
    1) the second wing (the feathers dont extend into the outer wing), but the feathers at the base of the wing in the first one. so like youre extending from feathers into a bat wing.
    2) tan like my character model. basically i just dont want her to be super pale!
    (also just making sure you remember to straighten out the eyebrows please!! and if its not to much could you make the hand holding up her elbow a little less holding it up and more err holding the middle? i can upload an example soon)

    @Marianthi
    Honestly, I super prefer the more mellowed out skin tones, but if you want yellow-orange you can have it with yellow-orange.
    Is this alright for you? Colour changes and minor edits can be made at this point.

    Also, just noting, I couldn't figure out why you were asking for a STRAIGHTER eyebrow, cause the eyebrow couldn't be straighter unless I used a ruler. after a few hours of contemplative debate with myself, I realized you meant you wanted it to be parallel to the bottom/top of the canvas, or more level with the ground.

    Will fix the wings. However, the eye colour was copied directly from the colour reference you gave me. I will change it, but maybe update the hex codes.

    Is this better?
