Description
Okay, I've had people point out how shaky my lines usually come out. The most recent one would be , and I admit they are shaky. Bumpy, like I'm resting my paper on an uneven surface.Well, after so many people complain about something I try to make a sudden jump over that hurdle. The last notable time was when I got a Note reading simply "Your characters could all use tans" and wound up finally coloring skin.
So, usually when I ink my pictures I just put my pen down on a line and go. For this one though I tried to lift my pen up regularly and only do very short strokes.
The result is kinda weird. She looks kinda jagged like a razor.... but I think I kinda like it. Gives it a certain quality. And in the spots that looked WAY too uneven I was able to edit them back into normality. Besides, I'm sure this method of inking will get better as a I continue using it.
Heh... As for why Misao here is my lab rat, I just wanted to draw her. She certainly is cute, huh? ^^
Was kinda lazy so didn't color her, plus color would distract away from her lines, which are the whole point. Maybe I'll talk to and see if he'll color her for me. From what I've seen he's quite good at that. Oooh, or if he can color lineart. He certainly likes Misao and his colors are certainly awsome....
Anyway, please leave feedback on how you thought this came out. It's an experiment and feedback on this stuff is always good.
Heh. Two people other then those above offerred to color it for me. If you wanna give her a try, please look at this color reference first: [link]
Also, please include a link to both my main page and the line art.
Anyway, here're the color jobs:

I think your lineart is improving bit by bit. Not that shaky here, so that's good.
I adore how her expression turned out though. c: You got that astonished look perfectly. XD Looks shocked to find out she's your lab rat. :0
I do want to point out that I think her left arm just.. vanished. xD Dunno if that was intentional or not, but.. xD;;
You did a great job on this little experiment. c: Keep it up~
Haha, I'm a girl, btw.

No worries. I used to go to a website where EVERYONE I met thought I was a guy. xD lmao, I made a topic about it and everyone flipped. It was hilarious. xDDDD;
Awww, I can't color on the computer though. xDD;

I kinda didn't wanna make any assumptions about gender, since for a long time I thought was a chick until he sent me a picture of himself in Cosplay. Still, the revelation on your gender sounds pretty funny. ^^
Ah, well. Thanks anyway. *pats back*

Oh, that kind of thing happens all the time, trust me. XD
It does say in your profile whether you're male or female though. ;D Just a heads-up.

While I'm not quite sure if it's an improvement over your other stuff (I think it is, but I'm hardly an expert), it does look pretty good. I like her expression... I wonder what caught her by surprise?

Having them behind her back is a low-maintenance pose....
Again, I have an offer on this.... Knock yourself out, post it on your page.

Misao she's from Magical Girl Pretty Sammy also known as Project S (i think but the spin off of the Tenchi Moyu series) right?
but i wasn't sure it was her cause i only have one episode and it is subtitled.
hope im right
wow i have to explain myself for something that could have been a 5 or 6 word question i am so weird even to myself
