Oh Gosh nnnnn I'm so anxious to post this ;w; this'll be the first time I any of post my comic characters I hope you guys like it. My comic's first episode won't come out til November but this is an ANCIENT picture of my main.
Unfortunately all other original art of my characters was lost in a venomous spider infestation. I lost every single other drawing of her and that's all I have of her. I had to start all over from scratch with my comic! Eek!
As you can see her style was really heavily influenced by the style of japanese Anime/Manga. At the time I was a pretty cruddy manga-ka. I decided with her revamped design to integrate some more western inspired features, and to also try to make her look more cutesie and youthful (so she actually looks 15 like she's supposed to be!) I think my artistic capabilities have drastically improved since then, especially after graduating college and obtaining my degree in animation. Gosh haha that tiny drawing probably took me 30 minutes!!
And this is her new design. Sorry it's just a sketch. I don't have an inked or colorized version of her on hand so I did that in like, 15 minutes when I saw this thread haha ^w^"
Don't mind her obligatory silly anime hair, it'll make more sense in the comic I promise. What do you guys think?? Does she look okay....?
