I'm really happy!
I just submitted my next drawing. I'm actually really proud of this little sketch. I'm aweful at drawing bodies. I can usually only draw them in a standing position. I wanted to make Usagi an angel sitting with her head down and hugging her knees. Well, I'm not so good at hands, so she's hugging her legs under her knees. I copped out of the hands this time.
I tried to make her hair kind of frazzled. I also used dark lines, harsher angles, and simple shading to contrast her body to the wings. I wanted them to look soft and feathery. They sort of came out like what I wanted, but I've never done wings before.
I really wanted it to envoke a certain emotion. It's hard to do that! I wanted her to seem sad, lonely, tired, and peaceful all at the same time. She doesn't look really sad in her face, but maybe the position of her body shows that she's sad. I'll have to keep practicing, but I've never made a body that's looked like what it's supposed to before.
Also, I didn't even use a reference picture. I thought I needed one to draw anime, because i'm so new at it, but I just thought of this one in my head and sat down and drew it! Hopefully I'll just keep getting better.
