Description
Yes, I'm aware that Halloween is about 5 months away. But the muse struck, this time in the form of *Annie13 coming up with this alt. version of my avatar. And as the idea unfolded, I thought to myself, "This is so awesome, I must draw it!" So I did... ^^ Ironically, postponing the final entry in my inspirational artists series, which is intended for... *Annie13 . >.> Awkward? You decide.So yeah, that's me as a two-headed six-armed belly dancer with a cat tail. I took some cues from other drawings to design the outfit.
I loved shading this piece! I just went all out, got up close, turned down the brush opacity when I needed to, pulled out the dodge tool for added shininess, and... did I mention coloring was my strong point?
Spatial recognition, however... ehhhh. A hand or three turned out funny-lookin', and it looks a little bit like she/they are leaning to the right instead of leaning back. Oh, well. Curse me for the blue-line sketch being lackluster, I guess. 
That's two you owe me, conjoinment peoples. <.<
Azzy = (me)

“So yeah, that's me as a two-headed six-armed belly dancer with a cat tail.” I love how that’s a sentence.

Very nice how you make the parts look like they belong anatomically. So does she have 6 shoulder blades?

She's under a transmutation spell that gives her the additional head, arms, and tail, along with the grace and poise to use them.

So cute!!
I love how you coloured her tail to match her hair!
Sometimes things with 2 heads disturb me, but this really nice!

Thank you! ^^ That means a lot coming from you.

I like this picture, not just because she's got six arms or that she's one person with two heads (Which I find is quite interesting), but also because she appears to control these with such grace and confidence that it's like she's lived like that all her life.

Then I must be doing something right. ^^ Thank you!

The tail could've been done a bit better, methinks. But it's still cool.

Will you keep getting more stuff each new costume from traveling through the 5th dimension?
Good: I like how you give extra space between eachset of arms, looks more believable campared to some that seemingly come out of the above arm's armpits. The seemingly elongated torso also helps making it believable
Bad:The middle right arm is oddly placed on the body. The top's straps would probably be better placed between the 2nd and 3rd sets of arms, not 1st and 2nd

That depends. Is the 5th dimension still giving away free cake? =3
Thanks for your input!

*Checks* Nope, no cake. they do have pie though since the cake is a lie

*nods* It is pretty stereotypical, isn't it? X3

I really like this one. Phenomenal expression on that forward-looking face. I regret not having a hand in this!

VERY nice! O.O Well, now I have a dilema. Enjoy this piece some more or submit. XD;
In all seriousness, though, this does look really danged nice, The design and colors are great, and I love how you handled the physical stuff (jugging two heads and six arms can't be easy XD).
While I'm not trying to say don't worry about doing hands right, I know I speak for a good number of artists out there that hands are the stuff of nightmares and I wouldn't hold it over your head for messing them up.

Hey, at least I'm showing courage and drawing people's hands when I need to instead of shoving them in their pockets all the time (Aztoria being a rare exception). 
Honestly, in retrospect, most of the hands are passable, considering the pose. (She/they are supposed to be dancing.) It's the lowest right hand that REALLY bugs me.

You just keep getting better and better. Nice work, Az!
