Description This is the latest and probably last development drawing of my manga OC "Molly". Ever since I finished the third drawing of her a while ago, I always felt there were some parts of her likeness that I thought could be done better. So I did some modifications to her side and forehead bangs, made the eyes more circular, tightened her collar, brought the hair behind her neck down a bit lower and made some slight adjustments to her maid headband. At first I wasn't sure if I could improve her very much from drawing #3, which I originally thought was pretty good; but now that I'm finished this one I can see how much better it is. So the next time I get the urge to work on her more I probably do a shaded and then a colored version of her.

Thanks, I'm glad you think so. This character is my first attempt at manga, and wanted her to look as good as possible, for a cartoon.

Hello Molly you look like you need help

Actually the help she needs is for me to continue designing and drawing her and adding some color in to her as well; but thanks for the comment.

She looks great! Will you colour this in at some point?

Yup, that's the plan. It'll be the last stage of what I hope to do with this; but I still need to draw more of her first, and maybe add a background to.

Thanks, I'm glad you think so; but I decided to take a break from this one for a while and work on some other stuff. Plus I'm still trying to decide how her body and maid's uniform should look.

Nice work, you achieved a nice and clean lineart (which is really difficult for some people, including me XD). She also reminds me of Rem from the anime Re:Zero (amazing one btw).  Keep it up!

Thanks, I've always thought keeping the line work sharp and clean makes drawings look better.
As for the character Rem, I'm afraid I've never heard of her; but there are so many anime characters out there, I'm not too surprised that my OC might look a bit like someone else.

Clean lines, and her expression shows some of her personality as well. I like the maid character design. Keep it up!

Thanks, she's turned out surprisingly well so far. During this year I'm hoping to design the rest of her and adding color, at least shading, to her as well.

Yeah, I just hope that when I get around to coloring her, she turns out as well.

She looks quite surprised here! Surprised and cute!
I love how clean the lines are -- especially with the hair~!

Yeah, she surprised and a bit worried by what she's just been told by her boss;
and I'm glad you think she looks cute, that was the kind of appearance I wanted her to have.

She's so cute, she looks like a cute loli maid. Hopefully the urge will come and she'll get some color in her.

Yeah, I'm really pleased by how well this version of her turned out. I still need to design the rest of her body and maid uniform; but that might take a while. I'm still not sure how they'll look yet. Even though she's a manga character, I want her to have a somewhat more realistic looking body and for her uniform to add to her cuteness; and when I do get around to coloring her I'm just hoping that that version of her turns out as well.

Thanks, I hope when I color her she'll turn out as well. As for the character, she's my first serious attempt at drawing Manga. I've always wanted to try it and she was an idea I had for a character, so I decided to draw her in a manga style. And as for her story, well I'm still working on it; but basically she's an American girl who was going to university in Japan. But she got expelled and is afraid to go home and face her parents. So until she can decide what to do next she's working as a maid. I know that doesn't sound like much; but believe me, that's just scratching the surface.

Yeah, I suppose it is; but like I said "that's just scratching the surface of the story".
