woman character

[Nyx702]

I really need to work on painting. To me, this is one of my most successful characters. I know...I know...boring front view but hey! one thing at a time.
Thanks for any help!

Two swords, two hair colors, I like that idea. Crits: No shoes, why? Aside from her boobs, she has the body of a boy, no hips; her arms don't taper, that is they aren't fatter at the shoulders then get thinner at the wrists, that's an easy trick to get the arms or legs more femenine. I also don't like the way her swords are attached, just by ropes that are tied around her boobs, maybe that idea could work if this character had more of a bondage motif. The face kinda reminds me of Michelle Kwan, so the character could be strengthened by getting some ref of her, her body also would work well with this sort of character.
I just noticed the bends in the sword handles. I assume you were going for a fencing influence but it just isn't working. Other modifications would have to be made to the handle to get the pistol style grip to read.
