The White Queen - sketch
The White Queen - sketch by @Anime_Deity (Aline Spyer)

hmmmmm...not quite as 'queenly as I'd have liked, but I don't think I'll be adding in detail until the final peice. Yes, this will have a background, but it'll go with the detail.

Oi. I've been a slump lately. I've had lot's of inspiration, but I haven't been able to get it on paper. that I drew this is an acomplishment...yes. very much so^^ There's TONS of work I have piled up that need to finish, (most of which I haven't uploaded here...) I just feel bad about always uploading sketches...sorry!

But back to the pic...yes, she is supposed to be young. The 'white queen' is, in my mind, a sybol of innocence, soooo...yup. Young-looking people come to mind. I dunno...

cough I need to work on her crown. I couldn't find a good ref. pic...Google, you let me down!! cries

That's all. My computer just beeped at me...XD

Very nice! You drew her face from a difficult angle, and it turned out absolutely marvelous. I am really impressed with the amount of detail you put into her bodice and crown--but the skirt looks rather square towards the bottom. I think it would look better if it would 'wave' a little more with the wrinkles... Also, her arms seem a little long. I guess you couldn't find a decent reference on Google, ne? Sometimes that is a pain...

I really think you captured the idea of the White Queen very well. She does look very pure and innocent, I honestly love her expression, and pose. I really, really hope you finish this one off... another suggestion I would make is to make her flower more detailed--even look up flower meanings online to give it some symbolism! So that, the skirt, and the arms are the only things I feel need a little work. Everything else is absolutely perfect. i love it!

Thank you so much^^ this comment meant a lot.

The flower meanings are a very good idea...apparently freesia (or however you spell it) symbolizes innocence, so...That's her current flower! (Found it at http://www.weddingflowersandmore.com/flower-meanings.htm))

As for the arms being to long...unfortunately, I have to agree. How I'm going to change them is a mystery, (I like the hands on this one a lot) but I'll figure it out. I want this one to be good^^

stabs wrinkles yes, I've noticed that as well. Lately they've been hard to draw - much like hands. My two favorite things to draw have become difficult. sniff Oh well.

Thanks again for the wonderful comment!! I really appreciate it^^
