Description So, yeah, I recycled the title for this (see my scraps) because as soon as I finished the sketch for this, I could not think of anything except for how much that darn pose looks exactly like the cover of an American Girl book. haha... it's like embedded in my brain or something.

But Talamai is not American; she is very proudly CladerΓ©, and besides I don't think any of the American Girls were trotting off to magic lessons on their book covers.

The writing on the bottom is just her name, and the writing on the book just says "magic." (I was going to have it say intermediate magic or something, but that was just way too hard.)

oh geez... I'm already subconsciously planning a "CladerΓ© Girl" series.... somebody please help me...

EDIT: totally fixed her face. if it's showing up.

Great colouring and lineart. I like the way you use shading
There are some slight mistakes,tho, if I can see correct... - the hand's a bit too small and the ankles too thin. But it doesn't affect it's coolness I *want* that key-chain thingy, btw

Oh snap--those books! I used to love them and read them constantly.. XD; Great, now I'm envisioning this Kecky on the cover of a book...

Awesome style, and I do like the pose as well. Filled with so much character.

I had Kirsten, and a Today doll, and way too many outfits for them, and whenever a catalog would come I would DROOL over it.
