Artist's Comments

Alternate Titles:
"Fun for the Colour Blind"
"So many circles"
"Oh God what was I thinking with this background??? T_T"

Anyway, this is Sailor Keme, a kiriban prize (/art trade) for :iconit-is-a-circle:

Uh... It was going to be something simple and quick, but I ended up going a bit overboard with the background and ended up spending the whole day on the thing. You will not believe the cramps in my hand from holding the tablet pen.

I hope you like it :)

:3 I kind of like the background. I get dizzy but still... :D. I like the style you've drawn her in.

OMG Her face. :iconohohoplz:
I like the background too. It's especially effective in the smaller preview image.
You win so hard right now. XD Thank you so much!

for the club~

Not too much to say really. I like the style of it, its unique and different. Only big issue I have is the cheek line. Lines like this will age a character if you use them in certain spots. Cover this cheek line with your finger and see the difference it makes.

Other thing is the hips. The style calls for a thin waistline, but the details along the senshi dress kind of make her even thinner than was planned. I don't know why but I just concentrate on the pure white of her waist and not the part with the yellow ribbons. I think these details get a little lost in the crazy background. :p

And as for that! Its messy but a stylistic messy. I only wish less circles had little innie-doodads inside of them, makin' 'em look like Q's. But that might be me being OCD. u-u;

Thanks for these critiques, haha.

The ageing effect of the cheekline is actually on purpose, haha! I don't know the actual age of the character, and while the concept pictures I was referencing did have her looking youngish, I got the feeling she was an adult rather than a teenager, so the cheek line was put in for that as well as cartoonish effect :) I should tone it down on some of my other cartoons that I'm working on, though, because it's becoming habit!

I actually have the same trouble as you seeing her skinnier than she actually is, but I didn't know why until you told me (and it seems really obvious, now). I'll have to think of a fix that doesn't lose out on the background :/

Haha, if it's you being OCD then it's just as easy for me to say that's me being lazy (and probably more true). When I sketched the circles, I got a bit carried away and then they sort of killed me in the inking/colouring stages >> I'll have to clean that up as well.

Thank you!
