You might want to learn top read/write cursive then, Virt. It's like, everywhere in the adult world. >.> I've been writing in only cursive since what, 5th grade? >.>

Her right arm and left leg are bent out of shape. There's a lump on the arm, and the leg looks too thin in some places and unsteady. I'd redraw shapes for those areas to get it more even.

And her neck looks too wide for an anime chick. Thin it up. >.> Her calves are also too thick compared to the rest of her leg.

Also, the calves should go down a little bit further, and should smoothly curve in with the rest of her leg.

The cloth on her hips has a lot of folds not going the same way. Go find a big bandanna and tie it like that around your waist and look in a mirror. >.>

Other than that, it looks good. There's obvious improvement from your other pictures.

Just because you don't redraw the picture in question doesn't mean it won't help for latter pictures. Criticism should be taken for anything you do, and not just fixing what it's telling you to fix in that specific picture.

I've been writing cursive since I learned it, in like the 1st grade or something, but it's so sloppy my teachers demand I can only use it while taking notes, and I have to write essays and tests using print, LMFAO.

Hm. Maybe Americans are forced to write "Cursive". I was never told how to write, I was to write neatly, and to make it as readable as possible, I do'nt care if it's cursive or shit, it's my handwriting.

Anyway,I think this is a bit off topic now do'nt you?

Omg, yes, yet ANOTHER Avelyn drawing >.>; This one's a modern version of her to go along with the FFXIV Rynk I made for Virt's survival thread.
I realize that her one pocket doesn't exactly match the other one, but it works for now, I'll fix it some other time or when I go back to edit it after Tessie tears it apart ^^;

That's the rest of her long hair, Virt. You know, that you can see from behind? >.>

I like that outfit. : )

Her hands are too 'fat'. I'm not sure how muscular Avelyn is, so I'm not sure whether you should define her muscles of add more curvature to her limbs. her bangs look like they've been pushed slightly off her head, too.

Also, her right arm is too long, but her left arm is the right length. Also, does she have any form over covering under that poncho thing? O_o

Her left arm falls out of alignment with the bicep when it enters her glove. Also, I think her wrist is supposed to be smaller. her pants could also do with some more noticeable wrinkles. that band on her thigh doesn't look very secure, either.

Other than that, it looks good. You've definitely improved. I'm running out of things to complain about.

Swift... I have a art request... look at the thread Drawing Contest, you'll find the details on the first post... could you please draw it? Umm... consider it practicing drawing other characters for more variety in drawing...

I would guess that seeing as it's a more modernistic version of her than a fantasy one, she would be wearing undergarments, or in the case of your question, a bra of some shape. Though I didn't put much thought into it, because I didn't intend of having her undress herself in the middle of the RP or so, the straps over her shoulders hint at that a little bit. I guess if that's not enough, I could add a tube-top underneath (drawing part of it sticking out from underneath the 'poncho') if you think she needs it. Usually Avelyn has these crazy outfits, so I figured that wouldn't change even from a fantasy to modern setting.

Besides--she's an elf in a modern setting. What's not crazy about just that? lol.

Oh, and about her muscle tone, I would guess she has enough build to be able to lift her own body weight from hanging off an edge. Strong, but not so strong that she seems like a female weight-lifter. Fantasy physics work with her to help her carry the sword so she still has that "elegance" about her that depicts her as a rose with thorns; as her name in the story-line goes.

But, anyways, I'll get to fixing it up. I was going to just leave it as a sketch just so I had it there for Virt's thread, but, I guess it wouldn't hurt to dress it up a little.
Also, I asked a few other people this, but, do you think there's anything I should add to it at all? When I just had the outlines in, it just seemed kind of plain to me, or something was missing or should've been done differently.

EDIT!-
Sorry Areth, I've never been very good with art requests.

Oh, okay then. I'll find someone else to ask... just saying that I really like your drawings and thought I'd ask.

Well think about it Swift. if she lifts her arms up, she'll be flashing everybody. >.>

"Lolz look at mai B00bz!1!!"

>.> I don't see Avelyn doing that, but yeah.

Also, you should color it. your art threat has NO color. At all.

Blah, I didn't even think about that >.<;

Oh well, I'm a guy, I don't have to worry about stuff like that x_X
So um, I guess my tube-top idea might not be so bad at this point >.>;

Well, obviously there wouldn't be any random boob flashing in the RP, one it's pretty much against the rules, and two it would be out of place in a massive gorey action fest.

Aw, really? Crap, what's the point of even using her in the thread then, Virt? Way to screw everything up, god >.>;

Sarcasim and stupid jokes aside, I'm getting to work fixing it all right now. There was the thing about the threads of her boots not matching up either, so I might just redo them entirely.

The lack of Mithra/Cat-girl in this thread, or this forum all-together disturbs me.

I aim to fix this.
