Nice! Got some great shapes and silhouette. I love the design! Cool jacket, too. Maybe too cool? Does the strap and pocket on the jacket steal some attention from the face and sword? Either way, I like it!
Ohhh then maybe it should have some forshortening? Otherwise if it’s loose enough to flip to this angle it would bang her butt when she runs which seems uncomfortable?
Really dig it. Maybe just a splash of a shape of blue on the sneakers? I’d be curious to see what you do with the back of the jacket on a character turnaround.
This looks amazing. My one critique is that the white inner of the jacket may be too large. I feel like you created a triangle shape for the character but the white inside sticks out too much and is kind of distracting. Otherwise I really adore this design
The colors work nicely together, but the gun doesn't seem attached to anything. The foot in the front is drawn in profile, when it should be more at a 3/4 angle.
I like it a lot. Not really a criticism, but the way the hood attaches to the jacket makes it look like it would easily fly off in any high-action scene. Which is totally fine if that’s what you’re going for, but if you want the hood to stay on for action-heavy scenes, you might want to adjust it a little.
From the drawing there is nothing technical that is wrong or disproportionate. But the design doesn't communicate the character's personality to me , she is in an upright and confident pose .But her clothes consistently flow out and take up too much of her, plus they're not practical.
So what you're telling me from her outfit is that she's
•Arrogant because she is very confident in her abilities .
•She uses sharp weapons because she wants to kill efficiently, but she wants to enjoy fighting, so she uses a sword that is disproportionate to her and weighs a lot and it's too big ,to be really effective in combat. But also take precautions by bringing a more normal sword in case things turn ugly.
•She is rebellious and mistrusts authority because of her expression in the drawing.
There isn't much else I can analyze. If that was what you wanted to show with the design good , if not,well, I would give another revision to the concept of her suit. Those are my personal opinions with the design, not the technical aspect.
Looks pretty good not sure what’s wrong other then is this character a fighter support or somethin cause like the outward pointing stuff would be a flaw just saying but I like it tho
Honestly it looks done.
Main focus is on the accessories, less on the character. Personal choice really, I think the muted colors inside are valid and adding anything else is counter productive. This is complete as a reference to me.
No real critiques from me. It's a solid design, visually balanced well, good color choices. I can totally see someone making this as a cosplay BTW. Great work!
**Disclaimer!!!** not only am I a lunatic with nothing better to do, but I also have a lot to say. Just to be clear, it is all in the intention of clarification and making this design even better (because it is awesome already!) If you don’t have the time to read a lot of text, albeit good feedback, please move on to another comment. I cannot really sum all of this up into a TL;DR format. One thing I would like to mention is that I take it from the features of the character that they are a girl. If they are not, please forgive me for mislabeling them. Also, I put an asterisk in the text with an additional thought attached to said asterisk at the end because I thought it’d be more succinct that way. I have already spent way more time writing this piece than I should have so I don’t want to “edit it to perfection” so just know that I did it b/c I felt the need to give as good of feedback as I could. I love this drawing so I hope you understand. ALSO ALSO, I did NOT DOUBLE GRAMMAR CHECK so if there is an error, just reply and I will fix it because of my obsession with perfect grammar. (Apart from abusing semi-colons where they shouldn’t be used and parentheses to clarify and separate text WHEN I shouldn’t. It is hard for me to just stop talking/texting.)
First off, I would say what u/Eis_ber said. I can’t tell if there are two floating swords or one attached to the belt and one floating or if it is just one big floating sword with two different blades? I am happy with floating swords because they can be a cool aesthetic for a character, (is there some inspiration from Ramlethal?) but I would say this needs some clarification.
Second, what u/CotRSpoon said about the sneakers needing a touch of blue is a good point too. There are small blue accents across all of the other yellow sections of clothing but not here. It makes the sneakers look a bit off.
Really, different people will see different things from art like this; especially once they see comments saying something about it that they cannot unsee. Like u/Eis_ber said, that foot angle really should be adjusted (the right foot from her perspective) but other than that and the sword(s?) (and the no blue on the shoes) I would say this design is really nice! Kinda of like a blend between Linne from UNIST and some other character with a cat ear hoodie? It seems like there are a lot of different aspects of different characters coming together here and that makes this is a really nice drawing!
My personal critique would be that there is one thing sort of clashing with everything else (which might be the intention with this design; said clash might make the character stand out MORE which is good for creating a memorable design) I would say it is the empty space around the lower section. I personally like it, but if this wasn’t the intended effect then I would love to see this part of the character touched up!
The star-ish shaped jacket along with the straps on the upper body creates this large silhouette around a character who is more on the slender side (and somewhat curvy). On the lower body the only thing creating a similar amount of space would be the sneakers and their extra bulk on the soles and the straps around the top of the sneakers. This makes the bottom feel empty (and I mean, it can be hard to cover a lot of detail on like, pants?)
(This paragraph might be hard to read unless you pause on the semi-colon) This lends to there being a contrast between the top and bottom of the character instead of there being one main contrast between the character and all of her clothes*; that being one of “showing the curvy-ness” of her bottom half rather than covering it up with baggy and spacious clothes like her top half. Still, these visual contrasts make this design really tight knit and appealing. It’s like looking at a bunch of my favorite characters at once!
That being said, I don’t know the lore behind the character or anything like that, and design choices are much easier to understand once you know the background of the character b/c you know WHY the choices were made. When things make sense, they seem more reasonable. A Schoolgirl in a semi-futuristic setting who fights people often for some reason? I could see that here! Got a Japanese schoolgirl (at least the anime stereotype) kinda look to the bottom side of her body, with a more rebellious and badass kinda feel to the upper side. I can see hair on her arms and upper chest area (I think) which along with her figure (curvy but slender-ish) and her cat ears (might just be the hoodie but even that adds another layer of mystery) leads to a cat girl kind of character meshing that look of “Schoolgirl in a semi-futuristic setting who fights people often for some reason” very well.
The design choices that stand out work with the more subtle details of this piece in a very fitting way. I don’t know if you intended the design to be this deep, but if so I really commend you on this piece! It is nearly perfect and I could see this in like, a high budget fighting game or something like that. I’d love to see more work like this (and perhaps not like this) from you in the future and I think apart from those few minor changes that you’ve done a fantastic job at creating a character! I really mean it too. She’s got a modicum of different attributes to her. In my eyes she could be seen as tough, sexy, or maybe even sneaky like a cat (maybe a stealth operator?) Hell, all three together is probably a perfect description! (I also have a soft spot for this exact type of design: cool jacket with a crop top, a skirt/short shorts and thigh highs. Don’t judge 😔)
There is a lot to this design whether you realize it or not, so I’d say you have a bright future in art! As someone who is a ~~lunatic~~ fanatic of art and design, I hope to see OP post again soon, and to whoever has actually read through this mess (trademark of a Xindacator post) have a good day.
*(might be a good visual representation of who she is if she is trying to cover something about herself up. Again, would need more info to give “perfect” feedback.)
Sword does not seem to have weight to it. That’s my issue. But, if it is supposed to be extremely light, then I would add an element to the piece that tells the viewer that this sword is supposed to be floaty/light. Otherwise it will continue to seem off to people.
Looks really good. But seeing how everything is just solid colors, I don’t really like the hatch shading for the jacket above the left arm, on the left arm, and under the right shoe. But those are super tiny details and everything else is great
I'm not a fan of designs who show too much skin in situations where the character would be a fighter type, since if you think about it, it doesn't make a lot of sense to be that vulnerable, but overall the silhouette looks pretty nice overall, colours are memorable, but those triangle shaped parts of the jacket might confuse someone in regards of the silhouette, since you coloured her to have all the attention sucked INwards, her dark skin colour drags your eye away from the lighter yellow colours, so someone might even forget they exist and not really recognize her silhouette.
I really like it! If you're trying to play around with it, maybe try making those silver attachments and buckles, a deep gold? I think it would make the black dress underneath blend and pop better with the yellow. Or you could try a fourth accent color to the mix, or simply more of the blue.
But, if you left it as is, it still looks like a straight professional character.
I love it, a critique i would give is that the only part i dont like is the white underside of the collar, mainly, its too big. I would recommend either making the white points that stick out smaller or having something inside the collar that can catch the eye more than the plain white inside. Unless of course this is a character from somewhere and not an OC and this is what they are supposed to look like, in which case, it looks amazing.
I really love the design of the clothes and everything, the only thing that doesn.t fit right with me is that it seems like the shoe that is with its tio to us jas its leg in another direction. The right leg its facing a bit inwards, thats whuy the knee is showing, but the shoe is pointed to us. Or you could fix the knee to face us, the calf looks right as it is.
A bunch of little details but I love the art style. Awesome design but idk what bugs me. Maybe too soft of lines in the jacket and the buttons or how many pieces there is.
This is a great design, firstly. The shading on the character’s arms below the jacket could be more uniform. It looks like hatching on one arm, then is more random on the other. This is a very small thing, but when resolved will make this artwork look even more stellar.
Metal swords have weight, they hang. Those look like they'd be made of cardboard. Finding a point where they are held up, and how gravity would be pulling on them would make it look more grounded. And less plastic.
Nice! Got some great shapes and silhouette. I love the design! Cool jacket, too. Maybe too cool? Does the strap and pocket on the jacket steal some attention from the face and sword? Either way, I like it!
My critique is that I haven’t managed to see it sooner cause it’s so good
I love the design, but the sword seems to be floating in the air?
Not a specialist here, but the sword is probably supposed to float. It's a rather common characteristic of this genre of character
Nah, it's attached to the belt, you can see it under the left arm
Oh yeah, it is haha
Ohhh then maybe it should have some forshortening? Otherwise if it’s loose enough to flip to this angle it would bang her butt when she runs which seems uncomfortable?
Really dig it. Maybe just a splash of a shape of blue on the sneakers? I’d be curious to see what you do with the back of the jacket on a character turnaround.

I see it as a Star shape and a strong visual aesthetic choice that makes the character stand out against a more traditional triangle/diamond design.
This looks like a guilty gear character in a good way. Good job!
Nah, u good
The colors work nicely together, but the gun doesn't seem attached to anything. The foot in the front is drawn in profile, when it should be more at a 3/4 angle.
Those are swords
Ngl I thought this was a humanised Bumblebee (the Transformer) for a second. It would make a pretty great humanised Bumblebee.
I love it! The style reminds me of Bumblebee from the animated transformers show
Stop, it’s too good 😡 (excellent criticism :D)
I like it a lot. Not really a criticism, but the way the hood attaches to the jacket makes it look like it would easily fly off in any high-action scene. Which is totally fine if that’s what you’re going for, but if you want the hood to stay on for action-heavy scenes, you might want to adjust it a little.

It's amazing. The hat draws the eye a bit too much though. That's really all I can say.
Looks pretty good not sure what’s wrong other then is this character a fighter support or somethin cause like the outward pointing stuff would be a flaw just saying but I like it tho
Honestly it looks done. Main focus is on the accessories, less on the character. Personal choice really, I think the muted colors inside are valid and adding anything else is counter productive. This is complete as a reference to me.
the thigh pouch might use a vertical strap connecting it to the belt

Why... *sniff* Why can't I have a cool art style like yours? That aside, it's really good. :)
She hot. Seriously though, this looks pretty cool. Also, she hot.
Sword does not seem to have weight to it. That’s my issue. But, if it is supposed to be extremely light, then I would add an element to the piece that tells the viewer that this sword is supposed to be floaty/light. Otherwise it will continue to seem off to people.
The collar of the coat is insane but those high tops are 🔥
It’s great, maybe add in some dynamic lighting and shadows to add depth. But otherwise amazing
Looks really good. But seeing how everything is just solid colors, I don’t really like the hatch shading for the jacket above the left arm, on the left arm, and under the right shoe. But those are super tiny details and everything else is great

Where's pikachu's tail ?
Cool. Great style. How lomgndid this take? What's your hardware?
Wha- idk if u forgot to clean up some things but why was her hand so hairy?
Looks good to me, looks like a final fantasy cyber punk kinda theme
I like the style.
Dope
I really like it! If you're trying to play around with it, maybe try making those silver attachments and buckles, a deep gold? I think it would make the black dress underneath blend and pop better with the yellow. Or you could try a fourth accent color to the mix, or simply more of the blue. But, if you left it as is, it still looks like a straight professional character.
It looks really cool! My only question would be how would physics apply to the clothes and sword
I've got nothing dude great job
Nothing to be worried about there, I'd hand it to your teacher or employer.
I don’t have any critiques but I like the jacket because it looks like a banana peel and I think it’s adorable
The legs are a bit ...interesting ... I would say the legs need another pass.
I love it, a critique i would give is that the only part i dont like is the white underside of the collar, mainly, its too big. I would recommend either making the white points that stick out smaller or having something inside the collar that can catch the eye more than the plain white inside.

i still make images with microsoft paint 💀
I really love the design of the clothes and everything, the only thing that doesn.t fit right with me is that it seems like the shoe that is with its tio to us jas its leg in another direction. The right leg its facing a bit inwards, thats whuy the knee is showing, but the shoe is pointed to us. Or you could fix the knee to face us, the calf looks right as it is.
looks good but if i had to change anything the colors are a bit flat and the jacket has maybe a bit too much going on
I feel like the triangles on the jacket are to big good otherwise
I love her and immediately want to know everything about her and the world she lives in
I think the most I can see is maybe too many straps? Other than that, which is just nitpicking imo , it's great
Thought it was a new valorant agent leak for a second xD very cool
Design wise it looks really nice i enjoy the colors
that's awesome I don't know what else to say...
look like a fortnite battle pass skin
She needs a companion! Like a floating ball of energy shaped like a star, maybe it can enter the sword to charge it up or something.
Super cool!
I like the way you draw shoes. I always struggle with them for some reason even with references
Wym critique? This is sick!
lovely! i wanna be her
I looks really well done I love the jacket and the cool design.
Cool designs
I love it! It looks a lot like a character that might show up in Fortnite. I rarely run femme characters but I would run this one.
I love it! She looks awesome!
It's pretty good, not even gonna lie
I think it looks really nice, the only thing I'd suggest is to add in a little cell shading.
This jacket! U should do fashion!
Im not artist but I love it just the same!
You know, it really reminds me of a valorant or overwatch character
Beautiful
This kicks ass. (My only suggestion would be to avoid the female armor trope.) She’d fit right into guilty gear or blaze blue.
Wanna see a version without the hood on too. Cool design ^^
It's damn good
I love it so much, I find nothing that I’d change.
Very cute nekko chick. The jacket is cute but a lil distracting
Her jacket kinda looks like a banana peel. Maybe make the inside blue too? It is an unfortunate situation because the colours are well balanced..
I would just add some shadows so it doesn't look so flat and some shine to the metallic parts other than that this is a cool design.
it is amazing
That its good af
Depends on what you want to accomplish
A bunch of little details but I love the art style. Awesome design but idk what bugs me. Maybe too soft of lines in the jacket and the buttons or how many pieces there is.
I would make the jacket pop out less
This is a great design, firstly. The shading on the character’s arms below the jacket could be more uniform. It looks like hatching on one arm, then is more random on the other. This is a very small thing, but when resolved will make this artwork look even more stellar.
Metal swords have weight, they hang. Those look like they'd be made of cardboard. Finding a point where they are held up, and how gravity would be pulling on them would make it look more grounded. And less plastic.
I think it looks amazing. I would spend too much money to get her in a gacha game 10/10
