After doing Mag, I decided, 'Hey I ought to do the other two girls'. So, after some weird and frantic drawing, this is what I came up with. It's not supposed to be normal, so don't try to make it that way happy.gif.

Yes, I'm totally aware that what Dog is doing is impossible (I made sure last night and some bone went 'pop!'). Yeah, and people don't usually have hands that can cover their whole head. Heh.

Title(s): "Little Pokey - Rag", "Really Tall Girl - Dog"
Media: Pen y CG
Randomcy: "My cat doesn't always land on his feet. One time he landed on his back and just kinda stared off into space. We found him like this after he knocked over my dad's beer and drank most of it."

Yep, it's Dog.

And Rag too.

First of all, that is a manly dog, and Rag's dagger handle looks curved.

Overall nice quality, though

Rag would scare me anyday with that menacing look coming at me, and Dog does look kinda manly, but great coloring and design

Given the style of the pieces, I'd say they were both wonderful.

When I look at art I try to look at what the artist was going for, and what style they used.

Double thumbs up.

I think they're pretty nice, although neither is as awesome as your Mag.

About Dog: I didn't really think so was manly. Also, that thing she is doing with her right arm? I can do that. Maybe it's a special power if you're really tall and really slim, I dunno smile.gif

Dog is an incredibly funny name. She looks too manly and too slutty, but nice job anyways...

Seriously guys, I'm just not seeing manly with Dog. I looked at it, and scrutinized it again... still nothing. Is it the arms? She has these impossibly long arms and the left one is bent up slightly at an angle (therefore, getting larger in an exaggerated view towards the viewer).

Yeah, Dog does look kinda slutty, but that's the outfit she wears...

DP: I looked at the sprite of Dog, and she has a weird curved blade thingee in addition to her spear.

Maybe they're referring to the shape of her jawline. Looking at the pic again, I guess it could make her face appear a tad masculine.

I love the one of Rag/Mindy. So evil...

"Weird" is clearly the running theme here with all three, so Dog/Sandy's pose and giant hand fit right in, I think. Seriously. And once again, I love the coloring job. thumbup.gif

What's that thing old Dog is holding? A whip? A ribbon dancer? The problem is that whatever it is, it's too close in color to her skin tone and so makes the composition itself seem off. I would just change the color on that to something contrasting and say you're good to go.

Edit
Ah, so it's the "weird curved blade thingy." I would still make it a different color -- much paler, maybe, and not with the similar shading.

Beats me as to what that thing actually is. I guess I was trying to stay too close to the sprite with that thingee. It <i>is</i> actually the same colour as her skin tone on the sprite, and decided not to change it.

Well it wouldn't be so bad if she didn't have a right hand on her left arm... unsure.gif

It's a little upside-down, yo. ^-^;

Umm...no.

Maybe I didn't make it clear but her palm is facing the viewer, therefore her thumb is down. I know I've made stupid unthinking goofs in the past, but this isn't one of them. I was actually messing around doing this, so yeah, I'm right.
