And French is pretty easy...I can speak it fluently...but thats only cuz i live in French Canada...Although I know like, 5 french people and 10000 of english people...weird...
Nice drawing through ^^
Beautiful, but flawed...
Yeah, I find this drawing really pretty. If not the most original in the 'net (Yes, another animal-eared girl in a french maid outfit...), it's very well presented, with a pleasent selection of colours and a nice layout design, the white outline, the leaves and the circle background work very fine with the way the figure is curved, thus getting the most of the picture.
The tail is also a good idea for balancing the picture, but its shape is quite weird... I didn't get it was a tail until I noticed the animal ears in the girl. The proportions are something that every artist should interprete as they think it fits better to their styles, and I like those broad thighs, so I got not much to say there. If something, maybe it'd be interesting for you to work on the way you draw necks...
But the hands...
... Oh gawd, that hands are dreadful.
Her right hand has the thumb placed in the wrong side. It's like she had another left hand turned backwards. This is a "LETHAL" cathegory mistake that downgrades drastically the quality of any drawing. Yet, I hoped it was intentional (as weird as it may sound...), so I turned to the other hand... And I found a really weird ambigous appendix there. The thumb almost doesn't stick out at all, so it seems missing. And the pinky comes from a point so high it almost looks like, effectively, this hand would be also backwards too.
I also have seen you used one of those textures for the dress (Are they called "stocks" ?)... This can be a double-edged sword, because it can weaken the idea of volume that you have managed to convey with the adecquate contrast you've used for the shadings... And it actually does destroy it if you use a single layer of texture for different pieces of cloth. The pattern goes regularly from the dress to the ribbon to the fans and that doesn't look good. A fast fix would be not using that on the purple zones.
Anyways, despite the flaws mentioned above, the stuff that looks good, looks very good. I see a good sense for design here and taste and skills for drawing fine. You only should try to be a bit more careful next time.
I'll be looking forward to see your next submissions. You are able to make great stuff, so just keep on making these!
...
One last thing: Is she a "wolf"? And if she is, have you thought about trying a gray fur/yellow eyes colour scheme? This one you used make me think more of a "fox" to me...
Hm...
Pregnant with a lazy eye and backwards hands? LoL... Thats what I see. Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder I guess.
That aside. Pretty well done.
pfft
There is a few people bashing you and a few people agreeing that everything is fine about this drawing its just your "style".
Ignore most of these people lol.
The hands do need work and the right eye should be a tiny bit more up etc etc. Just practice thats all you need! And your "style" needs anatomy! even really cartoony stuff needs anatomy! So dont listen to people saying its perfect lol. The best way to practice is to draw from life and not actually on your style and beleive me it will make your cartoons way better looking! C:
