Daily-sketch turned full piece

[erebusnight]

So that daily sketch group had a topic that was a centipede woman smiling with yellow eyes. I never had a centipede, but only two legs, and now I've decided to make her less evil-grinny and more damsel-bug-in-distress.

I'm looking for some more critique on the anatomy and the 'workability' of a bug-legged woman with the face of a lady in need. Don't mind the lighting, though. I made the main source come straight from the top before I decided that there would be a supernova in another direction... and I'm far too lazy to re-work all the lighting.

Also, should I add a third leg, or two other legs, or a tail, or what? I was thinking a third leg, initially.

So, here's my two cents.. :)

I vote for 4 legs and something in front of her -- as in, with 4 legs, at least one of them can be pushing away from the danger before her...Obviously, this would require a little background-manipulation, cuz that back leg has to go somewhere.. hmmm

Very spiffy pic here... eager to see its progress :D

Eeeep, no, the supernova is somewhere out in space. She's not in immediate danger... just her planet is kinda screwed. :D

Oh, i see... well, nm then :) 4 legs're still better, though, IMO :wink:
