Description I'm going to start requesting critiques on ALL sketches because I keep running into the problem of people critiquing fixable things like anatomy AFTER I finish an entire piece. -___-

First doodle of Kempley and her baby sister, Euphemia. She goes by "Effie" or "Baby Effie". :]

After her initiation into the circle of Death Eaters during the summer, Kempley returns home and tells her parents that she's already given herself over and that they need to GTFO England. They're a Slytherin pure-blood family, but I suppose her parents decided that since they had super high positions in the Ministry, that they didn't want to be tied to Voldemort in case he somehow failed in his endeavors to become the world's biggest asshat.

So anywaaay, since this is summer of 1996, Kempley is 16. Effie here is four years old, so naturally she's going to Africa (it's where they hide out during the war) with the parents. And little Effie is quite sad her sister isn't coming with them. D:

She doesn't understand.

I love this sooooo much. ;o;

I admire the length and thinness of Kempley's arm dropping out of her sister's reach--it adds a feel to it that I just can't describe--but something seems a wee bit off about the angle the hand itself is at. Other than that, I just really adore this piece. Little Effie is so sad, but so cute with her little freckles and boots.

And those sisters are stylin'. B)

Aw, this is so sweet and sad at the same time. I love the story behind the piece and Effie is such a sweetie! Her innocence and simple request makes it hard for Kempley to leave her behind...

Great job! <3 Can't wait for the final piece!

This is gorgeous! Effie is absolutely adorable and I think her forearms might be a little thing, but only a little. Other than that this is amazing!

This is beautiful, though Effies arm appear too thin and Kemps hand seems a bit too big OTL
But this is amazing, I look forward to the colours.

Wait. I found something else. Kempley's hand appears too big. I like how slender and delicate it appears but it looks like it needs to be shrunk a bit.

I'll just reply on this one with both responses haha XD

I was actually just thinking that too when I looked at it from afar on my computer screen. Hands are such a bitch :<

Thanks Autumn! <3

The only problem I have with it is that Effie's arm appears too thin. Add a little fat to the arm and it's good to go.

Daaaww this is just adorable, the picture, the story behind it. Just... daaaaaaw

But that paragraph I promised you: Effie here is around 4 1/2 heads tall which is good. Her face looks so cuuuute and childlike, her limbs are a bit thin though. Her outfit and hair = adorable as well. xD Children's necks are shorter/thicker looking than adults - but hers is half-hidden by her hair. Speaking of which, though this angle doesn't show a lot of things, it looks really hard, but it fits it. Ya know? I think it shows the emotions better than a different angle would.

*I'm babbling*

What colors were you thinking for their clothes?

hahaha thank you |D

I was actually getting annoyed with how all my characters are so...posed. I figured I need to practice different angles too trolol and I didn't want to show Kemp's face because I'm lazy and it adds mystery...

Uhhh well Kemp's will be dark greens/plums/greys/blacks, pretty much Death Eater stuff for her robe. Effy's will be a sailor-like dress with most of it being a sandy color, with blue and red accents. Her hair is dark though.

So it's like...

Kemp = light hair + dark outfit
Effie = dark hair + light outfit
