@Dionysus: Thank you so much! I have a natural tendency to draw characters on the buffer side since I mostly draw athletic dudes, it's my comfort zone, even they end up looking soft rather than chiseled though. Carmelita would be a physically strong individual but all women have a right to have a feminine side and express it whether that's through fashion, make-up or vulnerability, and I think Carms would balance both. That's my interpretation anyway. As much as this is a doodle, I'm glad that translated.

Dunno if it's the pose but the arms make her look both buff and cuddly. You do a great twist on the Sly style, and I especially love Carmelita with a "full" muzzle.
