of this? I did it using Loomis' mannkein frame thingamejig, thus completely without reference, but I'm not sure it's entirely correct... there's two things that I noticed that are probably wrong, those being the right (her left) breast which looks like it's seen from a different angle, and the fact that one hand should grasp the arm...

Anything else anyone notices?

thanks a lot!

okay, anatomically... I think her waist is *slightly* too wide... although her hips and shoulders are just right (and most people get them too thin). Her breasts look fine to me (and I should know, I have a pair of my own for reference purposes!!) - but if you still feel they are a little off, I'd move the left one over to the right, but only a bit. They look *much* better than a lot of efforts I've seen - realistic! not fake silicone type breasts, but actual flesh ones, to the extent that you can see their weight in the picture, which I think is great.

Otherwise, I'd adjust her jawline (I think it's a little too long) and maybe work on the face, which looks a little plain and uninteresting - not much expression, a bit stern. Her eyes *might* be a little high on her face, but that's probably just me, so ignore that one. And the hair's a bit... same thing, really, a bit uninteresting and flat.
To have done this without any reference is quite impressive - it's obvious your observation skills are pretty tight!

That good enough for ya?

Thanks a lot pixie!! =)

As for things being plain and uninteresting, this is just the sketch, I'm planning on painting it into a real picture, but I wanted to get things right before I went down that route since it's harder to change further on...

I'm glad the breasts seem natural to you, that's one of the things that I was worried about when I did them... I'm still a bit bothered by (our) the right one though...

Oh, and I'll bring in the waist, good point!

Thanks a lot for the comments!
