:'3 Thank you very muchly.

Yeah, I quite like the graininess ;D although apparently it's an acquired taste.

Also, thank you for all the faves!!

I know, i really need to learn to control my clicker, but it's sooo hard! Oh, and if it is an acquired taste, then i must be an old fart for these thing, if you know what I mean.

YAYY MOAR ART.
I like the colour scheme in this, its simplicity makes it very striking... I kind of see what you mean about the grainy texture, it's nice but it looks a bit... pixelly, I guess. Maybe it wouldn't on paper.
About the petals looking uniform – I don't think they're too bad, but perhaps the problem lies in the fact that they're all roughly the same size, and also, they all look like they're facing directly towards or directly away from the camera. When you see photos or drawings of falling petals, they generally vary in size, and are at different angles – like, on their side or half-turned away. Although, I know it's really hard to draw petals at angles
Love her hair, and also the little white rabbit. It makes me think of Alice in Wonderland
Also I think it's an interesting visual metaphor that she's falling head-first – the focus is drawn to her head and seems a kind of representative of the memory loss. Like, if she hit the ground, she'd hit her head first. That's what's in the most danger, kind of thing. Also how the rest of her body is kind of disintegrating, implying that she's losing some of her identity.
Her expression is great too. I love how you can draw open eyes, but make them look totally glazed over and not focused. It looks like she's asleep or unconscious, or in some kind of dream state.

IT HAPPENS LAWL.

Yeahh, I tried a new colouring technique I'm glad you like it, I wasn't so sure of it myself.
And yes, the pixelly-ness is a problem :/ I think I just don't draw large enough on paper, and the scanner is too high-resolution for it's own good. >_<
Ahaaa you genius - that's it! Thank you for that, I was wondering what was wrong with the petals.

"White Rabbit" is the nickname for this character, since her hair is white and her abilities centre around speed. Alice in Wonderland is also an appropriate link, and it's where the nickname came from . I'm glad you like the rabbit! I didn't know if I should draw it in, since it may have detracted from the subject or whatever, but I just...really wanted to draw it, haha.
Your visual metaphor is almost spot-on: I wasn't planning to reveal the plot for these guys until I finished designing everything, but you're just A LITTLE TOO PSYCHIC, SOL <3 <3
I love your interpretations; just imagine me right now bouncing on my chair yelling "YES THAT'S IT WOO".

Thank youuuu this is my favourite way to draw eyes <3 <3

Sorry for the late reply T_T and thank you ever so much for the comment!

YAY.
Can you not adjust the resolution on the scanner? Or soften the image or something?
And glad I could be of help. XD
The rabbit did kind of make the picture more lighthearted; but I like it.
Ahaha; really? I shall try not to reveal too much more with my psychicness then
You're eversomuchverywelcome!

Hmm that might be an idea! Also, I think a thinner pencil would be beneficial for me too.

The childish rabbit is also somewhat significant - when she lost her memories, it reverted her back close to her childhood (because she lost the growing-up portion, as well as a lot more).

Yes, you do that. Or else all my secrets will be out in the open!

What kind of pencil do you use?
Ah, that's really interesting... I like the symbolism.

Hmm, mechanical pencil, must be 0.7mm or 1mm - it's pretty blunt to be honest. :/ Shall have to get hold of thinner ones.

>:3 Thank you ^^

0,0 It acutally took me about three times over this to realize what I was looking at...

Soon as I realized what it was... I think my mind was blown.

just... wow... that's really all I can say about this.

Ahahaa, yeah since it's upside down it might be difficult to tell what it is.

But thank you very very much <3 <3

Oooooo! Wonderful! The petals seem fine to me. I think you should just post all of the crap you think sucks and let your watchers and visitors determine whether or not your stuff is good. I think my stuff sucks too, but hey, people like it-at least a few anyway- and you are much more talented than me so cheer up and let it all go. It is art right? So it is welcome here. I love everything you do. You put a lot into and that makes it great.

Thank you very much :'>
I see your point; but to me, if I'm going to show art to the rest of the world I'd rather it be stuff I'm most proud of, rather than anything, if that makes sense. And...I throw away anything which I don't like anyway, so it is too late ._. it's a bad habit of mine, hahaa. Thank you ever so much for your encouragement though, it means a lot to me .

You're welcome. I am unabashed when it comes to my crap art. I love showing it. It makes my "good stuff" looks ten times better in comparison. :3
