Demons are becoming more sympathetic characters, nowadays, it seems, so I don't find this gentle looking character out of place. After all, appearances can be deceiving, ne? The face and details in it are very nicely drawn, but your anatomy needs some work. Don't be afraid to use photos, books and even yourself for references! I like her wings, and the small details such as her jewelry are very nice.

My demon wolf character has been known to snuggle up to a friend who's down, so not totally uncommon. Besides... look at Spike. gryns Sorry, big Buffy fan. Ahem... back on topic. What Liliwagn said is right. The face and detailing is nice, but the anatomy needs a bit of work. Some hints that might help... a woman's hips are at least as wide as her shoulders. To avoid the arms looking floppy (or anything else for that matter) learn the skeletal structure and sketch it lightly, then erase when you're done. I think part of the problem stems from trying to draw a style, like anime, before learning the real thing. This was the advise given to me... back in '99 I believe it was. Got me to rethink what I was doing. Anyway, study anatomy and always try take the pose you are drawing yourself. Many professional artists and animators do this, and it's increadably helpful, and sometimes comical if you're drawing a non human thing. ;)

thank u! i was having trouble with her hips. I wanted her to look slim and lithe, and i was afraid of making her look matronly. Do u really think that the hips should be as the shoulders?
