If the pose looks familiar, that's because I stole it from a far <<hypnohub.net/post/show/45646|better artist>> than myself. Anyway, might as well introduce the snek since I seem to like drawing her a fair bit, though there's about as much originality in the character's design as your average Hollywood script. She's called Nila, 'cause of course I wouldn't come up with anything better than the Hindi word for 'blue' for a vaguely Indian blue-tailed naga girl...

Anyway, as always, feedback welcome. Strike me down with all of your hatred.

Love it! Real nice "pseudo-transparency" effect on their tops too!

Nah, I'd prefer to keep your journey to the Dark Side in a state of ongoing struggle ;-)

Only issue I see is - you guessed it - Nila's tiny left hand. Her connected arm is arguably too small is well, but that can be written off as foreshadowing. It's perfectly cool if tiny hands are a particular kink you have, but I'm guessing not, since Lila's right hand is just about perfect size-wise. So next time you do the sketch or lineart, circle those tiny things with the Lasso or your non-Photoshop equivalent and blow up the size by double at least. Nothing wrong with using modern tools to fix your mistakes; I know how discouraging it can be to draw something well and then realize it's the wrong size / position, and most of the time I'd rather just leave it as-is than redraw it.

Other than that I'd say this is your best work :-) Form is crisp, depth is nice, skin tones are huggably soft and delicious, and the white stroking really makes it pop and gives it some extra depth. Great job on this :D

And don't beat yourself up about the name. All the cool complex ones have already been taken by someone else somewhere on the internet, guaranteed ;-)

Ah, drat. You know, I'm trying to fix that, but for some reason I just always default on the smaller side. Big hands just look weird to me for some reason, maybe 'cause my own are pretty slender for a guy of my build.



Nah, truth be told I actually do like the name a fair bit, it's short, simple, and you can see how a parent might have decided on it out of all the options. Besides, I'm big on giving characters names that carry some significance, like suggesting a core trait they have.

You'll be sued soon >:3
Jkjk mezz was pretty spot on with the critique. You definitely did the pose better justice than i did with that old drawing. I can spot a lot anatomical errors in mine bc at the time, i just rolled with what i got. I can see you know what youre doing so no need to debase yourself from our juxtaposition.

Lol, I just noticed I called 'foreshortening' 'foreshadowing.' I pity the poor souls who take me seriously ^^;



You need to land yourself a nice cute 'tist who can train you to stop being so hard on yourself ;-)
