Another fighter girl...

The second pic's not supposed to be serious, usually I tamper with the colors a lot before I finish so that's just an example of how much I experiment xP

I should really start drawing more clothes, it looks like she's fighting in a swimsuit... I draw the figure first and add clothes later so it takes a lot less time to draw skin tight stuff lol.

I'd like some thoughts on this picture, I'm not sure what to feel about it. Thanks!

Hey there!
Wow, I really like this! The colouring is pretty original, especially the hair
The black/white version looks more fierce, and the colour looks more funky and interesting! So, well done on that, it's looking very good.
No critisism about her - the proportions are right, the face is good, the sword (or knife) she's holding is very original, too.Although I do think the other hand is a tiny bit small compared to the rest, but that was only on the 4th time I looked - so no biggie;)
Don't worry about the lack of clothes - I have not seen that many anime girls with much clothes on anyways, it's just the style.
Oh yeah, I love the hair moving. It looks like the girl is moving, too, which makes the pictures more exciting.
Overall, loved it ! Keep making more:)

...Oh wow.

This is incredible. The first one reminds me of a professional poster for a movie or something...I love the way the highlights in her hair and gloves stand out, and her expression is fantastic. You chose an awesome design for the sword/knife; she truly does look like a warrior.

And the one in color...I agree with Polinka. I like the funky aspect. The colors really make the shading on the skin stand out wonderfully. There's so much detail to look at in this version...

I'm looking for something to critique here...the only thing I noticed is that her right thigh is somewhat longer than her left, but I had to look really hard to notice it. Ah, and the hand, as Polinka said, looks a little small.

Just out of curiosity, did you draw the original picture by hand, or on the computer? Either way, you have serious talent for this stuff. Keep up the great work!

Gotta say, i really love the second one more. The color as shading which adds more depth to it. The first one kind of feels stiff, unmoving, and fake (for lack of a better word). Don't get me wrong, though, I still really like the first one. The hair and eyes are fantastic. I love the glossing of the hair which makes it look very professional and well done. The suit however, kind of just looks like it has stains on it. I'm not entirely sure how to tell you to perhaps make it not looks like stains. I've never done much for ink work before. But the gloves go back to looking great.

Gotta say, though, the hand is not the only problem with the arm that isn't facing towards us. It looks kind of like she has little reptile arm sneaking out of her side. I'm pretty sure, with the way she's angled, the elbow should be seen from the back and in return her forearm shortened a tiny bit. And then to fix the hand, you'd need to elongate the actual part of her hand with just the tips of select fingers showing at the bottom. I would suggest having a model pose for you in order to get the right look there.

The last thing I have a problem with is the leg farthest from us. It sort of looks like a limp noodle. The other leg is very sexy. You've got a perfect feminine curve starting from the hip all the way to the knee and it looks great. To start off on fixing the other leg, though, you'd need to raise the fabric up off the leg just a hair more and make it more curved. Because her leg is slightly raised there, the thigh would be covering up the very bottom of the fabric, not the other way around. And then it's not just that the thigh is too long (and it only is just by a hair) it's more of that there should be slightly more of a curve to the knee, and more graceful slide behind it going into the calf. You do it beautifully on the other leg, so you just have to match that smoothness and it won't look quite like a limp noodle.

Again, I really liked this drawing, the pose is great, amazing color job. hope this helped at least a little =)

So, the black one has a lot of really nice qualities. Its blunt, bold and really lets us look at the image. The technicolor was a really good idea, but I think the coloring of the face gave us a bit too much that was going on, and slightly distorted the clean, simple look of the face that you have in the black one. Really neat idea =]

I AM OBSESSED with this drawing.Its sooooo nice and you are soooooo talented. I LOVE it sooo much. Keep up the good work solja!

Ok, immediately I was a fan. And that was just the black and white picture. When I saw the colored one, I was BLOWN AWAY(Pardon the Caps)! I know you said the colorful one wasn't serious, but wow. You've really grown as an artist since I first spotted your work. I think you should drop the part about the second picture being not serious, because it is serious, seriously amazing!!!

So the black and white one is amazing, I love it. It is dangerous and sexy, and just striking. One thing I noticed, and I'm only going to say this once, even though I've said it quite a few times to you, and I do mean it on both pictures, but the knees sort of bother me. They aren't as defined as I would have liked from you. Also, in this particular version, it is a little difficult to figure out what the weapon is, and I would have liked some white definition on the blade. Otherwise, it's beautiful.

Now here comes my absolute, hands down favorite. Take all of my compliments from the last picture and multiply them by a thousand. Although, the nose, with the odd combination of color around it kind of looks... animal like. Sort of like a feline or a squirell. And please know that I only say that because I love you and I know you can appreciate the critisism. But other than that and the knees thing, I don't have another bad thing to say about this peice.

Keep up the Great Work,
Brook

I prefer the first picture, but that's just me(love black and white). The expression on her face says she's strong, and i love the way her hair is swaying. Her sword is really cool, from playing a lot of Oblivion the Elder Scrolls, i am obsessed with swords, and i am hard to please(Good Job). Her body posture is kind of like she just finished a fight which makes this picture more interesting. Her outfit is awesome. To me she looks like an assassin. Her eyes are amazing, eyes may as well be the hardest thing to draw.
Same for the coloured version which looks sweet, just a bit more 3D. Thanx for the radical picture! Keep it up!

Hi! I'll have a revue for 'Another Fighter Girl'

Well yes, it is a fighter girl, huh? Why do many people like to draw fighter girls? But still, I can comment that your style is pretty nice. The dark one (upper) is the better of the two. The lines and curves were the best and the sword was drawn perfectly. I also like the flowing hair which really brings out the girl's face .

But going down, I think I found one flaw. In the hip-to-thigh part (I just don't want to say this area's name), there's some kind of distortion in which when the viewer is in normal distance from the computer, it looked like it wasn't curving, which I think is should, check up on that when you have time.

You're pencil neck,
