Great job sweetie! I love the energy from her hair blowing in the breeze. And the scrapbook paper you chose for the background is perfect! It really compliments Orihime and her outfit. Yay for 'Hime love!

I love this pic so much. The coloring all around is beautiful and her flow-y hair is gorgeously done too. You're really learning to work with those markers. The only way to get better with them, as you may realize is to just continue playing around with them and experimenting. The proportions are getting better too but there are some things that need fixing.

This is where that crit comes in.

First, it's her right arm, it seems a bit too long. It needs to be shorter (to match the length of her left) and at the correct length her elbow should actually be raised higher with the elbow bent at the same 45 degree angle as you drawn above. (I've got to hand it to you, the left hand is actually proportional and if she's pulling the sleeve over her clenched fist, gripping the sleeve then I think you drew it right. Kudos~)

Secondly, her legs are really off and seem disconnected from her hips. When you draw, try to draw the body underneathe before you put the clothes overtop it.

Thirdly, practice drawing more folds and drapery. It'll improve the overall look of your people even further. I recommend this book in particular for it: "Dynamic Wrinkles and Drapery" by Burne Hogarth ISBN 0-8230-158887-4 (Check it out if intrested~)

Your Welcome!!!
