Description
I don't normally post iphone quality photos of my artwork, but sadly I no longer have a scanner! < /3Drew this little miss on green paper with black ballpoint pen, sharpie, silver marker (the eyes and necklace are highly reflective), and white acrylic Molotow pen.
Took about 2-3 hours!
I'm actually really happy with how this turned out (despite the characteristic flaws that come with drawing straight away in pen). I based her face on the style of an artist I really admire on Twitter--! (KR0NPR1NZ ).
So far the artwork is doing really well on /r/IDAP on Reddit , so I might actually part with the original if I can find somebody to compensate me for it... Yay!
Anywho, it's been a while since my last art update, but I promise to have a TRUCKLOAD of new content soon! I'm just wrapping up 13 commissions that I made as a fund-raiser for my collision last month. They're due to be posted soon! c:

Your art is bad and you should feel bad..............
Can you imagine. I spent some time sitting here thinking, man I should post this shitty critique, just to be a dick. But I cant, because I love your art. (But image this with half a star on each rating, funny right).
Pros:
-Tieflings are an awesome race of creature I love them, they are Pathfinder's (basically D&D) most customizable race. So there is that (5/5 impact)
-Narrow her eyes a bit, and this is basically a Sabtiefling. I think she looks a little like you.
-The detailing on the horns is top notch as well as the bright silver eyes.
Cons:
-The not using pencil on that line across the chin/lower jaw bothers me. its like, this line....I dont know...I want to erase it...hnng (.5 a point from tech)
-Her right (left of image) shoulder looks a little off. It looks like her shoulder is dislocated and sitting on her torso, rather than to the side. Unless she is reaching up, at which point we would be able to see the armpit at the bottom. On second look It looks like the shoulder is just too short. Its hard to describe, but I think you get the point (hence the low Vision rating)
Overall I would say START OVER DO IT AGAIN! *FLIPS TABLE*
lol, 9/10, I love it, good job!

LOL
I guess I should probably reply before you feel bad and think that I took your joke the wrong way!! SORRYYYY! 
Thanks for the constructive feedback! I agree with all of your observations. Pen is just so fun to draw with because you CAN'T go back and meticulously edit all the little flaws and mistakes -- feels way more therapeutic for me and I usually SURPRISINGLY end up with something I like. c:
Tieflings sound really cool! I'll keep that race in mind if I ever feel like appealing to the D&D crowd. Could have fun with it since the characters are so infinitely customizable!

My pen drawings end up the same way. I start with a little sketch where I don't worry about mistakes, end up wishing I hadn't drawn it on a post-it note or a scrap sheet of paper. Its that feeling of letting go with your art...though mine don't look nearly as good as yours.
Edit: Also I could probably find room at one of our Pathfinder games if you were ever interested in joining.

I can't figure out if I want to date her, or if I did date her, and didn't realize it. I've dated some pretty hellish ones.

That's crazy-good. I bet it smells though aha. Pen drawings.

Haha, nah it's fine! Once the markers dry I don't notice that alcohol/sharpie smell.

She's gorgeous, and you're rocking the colored paper! I really need to bust out some paper and act like a real artist sometime.

Haha Thanks!!
The only reason I keep doodling on cheap paper is because I keep buying all these cool art markers and I just HAVE TO DRAW with them. <:
My three favourite so far are the PenTel Brush Pens , the Copic Drawing Pen , and all of the Molotow Acrylic Paint Pens because they have AMAZING opaque white to highlight stuff with.
Seriously man; if you get these you'll be unable to stop doodling. lol

I will certainly check these out! They look really fun. When it comes to pens and markers and stuff, I really have no clue what to buy nor how to use any of them.

I don't see how anyone could dislike this. It's not like it has an offensive label or anything. Very nicely done.

Haha, if you're referring to the review at the top of this page; he was just kidding around.

Those horns are just awesome! I like that there is a ribbon tied to the one on the left.

Is it longing in her eyes, is it mischief? She seems to be lost in thought, and it looks so realistic, so natural. I really like the little touches of dressing her horns with a little flair, just to help make her feel pretty or special. She seems like the kind of individual who might turn heads, that would encourage people to come up to speak with her; but I am not certain if she realizes it. I adore the stories that you artwork starts to develop in my mind, each time I see something new from you. I know my little ideas may not fit the character that you create, but this is a lovely piece and my mind can't help but want to know more about this person. Glad to see more coming from you, take care and let your imagination run wild!

The idea that I'm inspiring creative thought of any variety means so much to me. Thank you.

She kinda reminds me of a female Draenei from WoW, not sure if that was your intention
Nice work though
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Some other people were pointing that out, too...! Wasn't really my intention personally, but I'm glad it sparks the thought! ...Draenei look so awesome!!

I don't know how but you always manage to make rather terrifying creatures with a woman's physique very attractive. Keep up the great work.
