Artist's Comments

Based off a girl I sketched riding the TTC a couple months back- lost in her own smiley thoughts.

(updated! Thanks for the critiques everyone! This is more a quick study so things like perspective and leg placement I'll keep in mind for "next time" rather than fix now, but that weird vertical hair shine you guys called started to bug me too so I fixed it. Thanks all!)

Critiques


:iconnewgirlcomic:
I love the retro design of you character. It is very 80's Quebec style animation. The style of the character is really amazing. The textures you used really add to the great quality of the drawing. The perspective of the bus as well and the girls outfit looks simply splendid. The only real thing that I find off about this picture is she doesn't really seem to be sitting naturally on the seat. The angle of the seat is pretty much all that is setting this off... other than that this is a wonderfully cute and happy picture! You did a fantastic job!

I'm a definite fan of only coloring the main focus and leaving the rest in a cool sepia tone. It makes for a lovely contrast. The perspective is a little wonky, but it helps to give it that fun old-school cartoon feel to it that not too many artists on here go for anymore. The only thing that really bugs me is the shine in the middle of her hair, the one that goes between the bangs and the main body of hair... but other than I think it's very sweet. Almost reminds me of some old Peanuts comic books I read as a kid, the really old ones from the early sixties.

Streetcar?

Very nice picture.

Isn't it nice when you see people smiling? It's surprisingly rare! I always try to do it when I'm out.
:iconinsanity-domination:
Wouldn't you just love to approach some random people on the stree? I see interesting people just walking along, and I wonder what kind of person they are and what kind of lives they've lead.

I always seem to be smiling when I go about traveling on the bus or (whenever I am in a big city) the subway. (But I never make eye contact...Imma weird that way).

I always smile when I am taking a phone call at work. Apparently, people can hear that and its like "insta-calm" for some really upset people (I work in a busy pharmacy)

I could be having the worse day of my life, and I am still smiling. Sometimes I wonder if people are wondering what I am thinking like I am doing with this cute pic you did. What is she thinking? Is that my sister you sketched taking the subway in T.O.? Does she like waffles and canaries (hopefully not all at once)?

I loved this. But then again, all your stuff is ah-maze-ding!

:iconandre-chan:
I really don't have a critique, but more of a question. What is that she is sitting on? Since I don't see any arm rests, handle bars, basically anything that'll stop her from smashing her face into the seat in front of her should the bus suddenly stop- makes me to believe she is sitting on top of the raised portion of the bus where the wheels/engine are.
