Art trade! :D For :icongrim-away: and hosted by :iconoc-art-exchange:

The character is Dziir, and she is a real cutie! Her character sheet is here

I wasn't sure about some things, such as the colour of her outfit and some of the details, so I went with what I felt suited her colours and so on. Also...I perhaps found out too late that this is a hard position to draw if the character has a very light frame, like Dziir. In the end she ended up looking a lot older and larger to suit the position! ;-; I also had to leave her bow out because it's about as tall as she is and would have been hard to fit in with the picture. Buh my planning is terrible. Oh yes and the reference for the position is from here -> [link]

BUT regardless of those things this was a heap of fun and I'm so glad I got the chance to draw such a cute character! She seems very sprightly, and her outfit is ridiculously fun with all those details. Also...fluffy ears. Yesss.

ps if you want to see the process for this, you can go heeeere -> [link]

Gaahhh I love how you pick colours. Love love love. The subtle greens are just fantastic.

And her pose! ♥ Personally I love how solidly you draw your anatomy, it makes your characters look that much more soft and real and squishable. 8D

Ufffff thank you picking colours can be tricky but it is OH SO FUN. I wanted to give her outfit a bit of a ...bamboo feel because I heard she likes bamboo tea. 8D

Hahaha well since I'm still learning anatomy it's better for me if I draw solidly. >: 3 Saaannk yooo.

WEEEEE!!!! I love this!!! You did such an awesome job and I love the colors. Great choice!! I'm very bad at choosing colors so I'm very happy you chose them!! I love how you did her fluffy ears too and the colors of her tail. Wonderful job!!

So glad you like it! :D And so relieved that you like the colours, haha. I had a bit of trouble choosing them but ended up going with a bit of a bamboo theme with some orange thrown in to match her reddish skin and stuff.

LMAO! Hey that definitely works since she loves the taste of bamboo. Haha I absolutely love it!

Ooh, it's done now!

The earthy colors are nice, and I can tell how much thought you put into her pose :). It's great how the lines of her clothing wrap around her body in a very believable way. The shading works well, and the textured background is a nice touch. Great work Tam :clap:!!

Yesss, colouring was a lot of fun. :) I thought the earthiness suited her sort of 'themes'. And glad you think that the lines in her outfit work to show how her body is positioned, I purposely chose a position with strange perspective because I thought the lines in her outfit would be able to help the perspective look more obvious. Hehe the background is from a photograph of bamboo that I took while in China. Thank you!
