heheh, c'mon, i was kidding about the cord. It wasn't critics at all

whoaw! it's like when i've compared Adam's works.... so many little bits, but if you see them separately, you won't find them.

It is interesting to flip back and forth between revisions - I do that a lot to check whether I've made any improvements or not =)

Well the fan also has no blades if you look closely there should be a hint of an inner semi-visable circle where teh blades are spinning, getting slightly more visable as it comes to the axis. The axis should also extend almost all the way to the front plate of the fan.

But that is if you are asking for small details.

So....? i've said - there's not nesessary to detail all things with 110% quality. main part - is gurl, and she's very detailed

Blurry things like that should be included when coloring because they won't have defined edges. At most they should be faintly hinted at in a pre-sketch.

But it is something she needs to remember to do.

I still say you made a mistake and that her boobs are too small. >w<

hehe - I always get all happy when I get to do artshow stuff, cuz I get to do stuff that pleases me =D. And my breast size preference is small to medium ^.^

I used to like 'em big though so I know where you're coming from ^.^

More than a handful is a tongue sprainer. >.>

Amen, finally, someone else who feels that way. I'm no longer alone in the world.

Oh no you don't. Big to you is like... just the start of actual existing breasts to me. Big to me is like... smallest big would have to be beach-ball size. >w<

At least she has cleavage, so you're good!

Small to medium is my preferred size too.

I like this peice because it is innocent enough and yet just a little bit teasing at the same time.

You also manage to include a lot of detail without it taking focus away from the main subject.

Wardy

Anything more than a paw-full is a waste, anyways

yeah, why do people draw them medicine-ball sized? bigger =/= better

Augh, we totally have to do another collaboration someday! I love your work even when it's in pencil form. So clean and well organized. =3

I would love to ^.^!

Thanks very much =D.

Looking good so far! :D

Very awesome!!! Love it!

is that bottle Ito-En Tea by chance? >.>

it is =D.

I knew it ^^ it's my favorite brand of green/jasmine tea ^^

I was wondering that myself, pretty fond of Ito-En myself. Especially the fruit-flavored teas, particularly the pear and blueberry. x3

haha, I thought it was just water.

wow... i wished you would help me get better.... i really want to... but need pointers

Bottled Green Tea. Perfect for Summer. ^_^

It looks great so far. I look forward to seeing it finished.

this reminds me of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKgli9fTysw x3

wow um...no

ummm yes, it just does o.o

I thought of that too =D. Doing that with fans is fun

ahhhhhhhhhhhhaahhhhhhhhhhh~ x3

hahahaha, I think everyones done that to a fan.

yes, at least once in their lifetime, everyone who's ever been around a fan has done that lol

Her feet are set a little bit further back, or a bit high the page for them to be directly under her. But they're cute none-the-less.

Her left foot should be lay little different from her right foot, so it's fine. But yes, quite cute they are.

*waves fan to her* ^^

If you want to split hairs, the tweaks make it look better.
However, I still think it looks awesome either way!

We have one of those little bamboo water-well things at the gardens near my house. I don't know why simple things like can be so amusing... (it's fed from a water main, since its for demonstration, so it slowly goes up and down all day).

Definitely waiting to see this one finished up :)

That's kind of the point of the device. IIRC, the sound of water mixed with the rhythmic "thunk-thunk" of the bamboo is supposed to be relaxing.

wow. I'm loving this piece and it's very interesting to see the step by step changes.

Ah the circulating fan, truly a torturous item when it's set to circulate.

Waiting for it to hit you seems like an eternity, but when it does, that's 3 seconds of pure freakin bliss

Hehe, talking into fans is fun. ^_^

This picture is hot. I need cooling now. *goes and takes a shower*

As well as your mask *point to your avatar*

Heha, very nice. One of those things that make me wish that I drew more. |3

As for being a constructive critic, the only two things that I see are kind of.. well one is one of those 'duh' things but I'll be captain obvious and ask if you remembered that you left the line behind the cord you drew in for the fan when it crosses the edge of the fan's base. I know you'd catch it when you went to ink, but I've seen myself and others miss far bigger things.
The other is more of a clerical thing then something that is actually wrong. For every animal that I have ever seen, when they face a headwind, their ears automatically lay back. Granted, that's likely an automatic response that anthromorphs would likely be able to override, but inherited reactions are kinda hard to get rid of.

But yeah, I like this piece and can't wait to see it when you've inked or even finished it! :3

and this is were i tell you, in Japan there are always about 11 ninjas in your room -even if it is in a drawing they are there- and were do you think they are looking right now >:3

you are one of the reason's i wanna learn to draw better, just so i could draw this good (or better...naaa).

Looks awesome! There's something about the bamboo water well thing though that I want to say seems off... can't quite put a finger on it though.

I am INCREDIBLY jealous of your ability to do something like this and not smudge the crap out of your paper |: For this skill I must now eat you to gain for myself *_*

Ok so lame joke is lame. But jeeeez man. And your ability to do technical stuff like buildings and perspective......Do want ;3;

Amazing.

The perspective is great :) One question though: If the airstream from the vent reaches up to hear ears, wouldn't she lay them a bit back so that the moving air couldn't create to much sound in her ears? I've watched my dogs last summer sitting in front of my AC and they layed back their ears.

Blah perspective, my natural enemy T_T

Looks great, always love your attention to detail in foreground and background, not just the character.

Now if those are the traditional paper walls, they are semi transparent or at least show light differences, so will you be adding shadows behind them?

hehe I use to play with my voice in the fans. :D she looks like she doing that too and just having fun. -rawr-!

i love the little attention to details there.

I'm not sure if she has 3..or 4 toes, but her left foot looks to much tilted/out of position.

Compared to her right foot the sole of the left one is..too much visilbe, that must hurt on the ankle ?

talk about giving fan service both to herself and to us ;3

May I make a 3D version of this once its colored?

What do you mean by making it 3d? do you mean like a 3d model, or one of those visual stereogram things, or something similar

Something like this
http://www.furaffinity.net/full/2661531/

That looks quite cool! And probably rather difficult to do.. My wife does some 3d work so I'm a little bit familiar with how complicated it is to do. Anyways, sure, you may. I've just finished the colors on the image, and I'd like to see what you create, when you've finished it =).

ohhh! I like it. :D will it be made digital eventually?

I'm going to be painting it with acrylics....

cool :D

The only "problem" I see with it isn't one I want to say mainly because I dunno how you would fix it. It's very....centered. My portrait teacher used to get on my own ass about this, there is a "line" through the almost middle of the piece, which cuts the "flow" of it. Her tail is so close to the edge it sectionalism the image via "empty" space. It kinda makes the image boxy with the exception to the figure. I guess that would enter into the realm of personal taste, compositions being very organic flowy or more rigid boxy. Hope I am understandable >,<;

Well, I think thats mostly a result of the choice to use one point perspective, in a primarily architectural setting - I did try to make it asymmetrical, showing more of one set of doors than the other, not centering the tatami mats, etc. I agree that trying to have things not centered helps with composition, and I'll be sure to think about that more in the future.

Looks all fixed to me :3 Awesomesauce!

Look improvement, so now no mistake here. Let's see forth to final finish.

I like the improvements; makes it all feel more realistic.

Well if you want the fan to look accurate then it needs:
- The screws that hold the cage in place
- The vertical angle adujstment axis
- Straps that keep the frontal part of the cage in place
- The horizontal rotation mechanism
- A longer engine axis (it normally gets close to the frontal end of the cage)
- A less weird base. I've never seer a fan with a flat, thin, square base. I think it doesn't even make sense from an engineering standpoint (a thin base like that would have to be made of something sturdy and expensive like alumunium, and much of the frame would have to be as sturdy. an angular, fat base can be made of cheaper, lighter materials like plastic, yet do the same job)

And isn't there too few seeds for two pieces of watermelon?

Still looks amazing.
This will look absolutely stunning when you finish.

That is so cute :)

I still like the "Musical" bamboo water fountain in the background. Those simple devices can add a pleasing sound to a garden. As comforting as the song of crickets in the night.

Oh, I can so relate to this picture! Have a fan blowing on me most days of the year, since where I am, "summer" often starts in early May and lasts until late October!

Really like this~ Makes me wish I lived in a house like that even more.

A couple more hints on the ellipse. These are generic comments, not specific critiques, and are intended to add to your knowledge. I do see some minor inconsistencies between the various ellipses, nothing that will detract from the image, but (if you are as perfectionist as I am) worth taking another look at.

When there is a common axis, such as on the post for the fan, each ellipse should be parallel with the others. On cylinders, all the ellipses will be the same size and orientation. They should be identical. (This is where having templates is so very useful.) Since the post is vertical, the long axis of the ellipses will be horizontal.

On the motor, the ellipse at the front should be mirror image of the one at the back. All ellipses on the fan, fan cage, shaft and motor should have their centers spaced along a single line that is also the centerline of the fan. As should the blur that is the tips of the fan blades. The center of the ellipse is the mid-point of the axis (the long axis is generally used). They should all be at the same 'angle' as well. (Do I need to explain this?)

This came out really well. Her expression is nice and the pic overall is really cute. I love how you did the background
Makes me want to learn how to do backgrounds X3

Totally reminds me of the background from Ranma 1/2

Can't wait for the finished pic! It is awesome!

such a cute art

I luvs it!!

I like your Japanese influence in this. I cannot wait to see this in color! =)
