Artist's Comments

Didn't know if I should've put this under drawings or paintings. Ah well, I did the best I could. Suggestions on making a stronger composition for character illo's, anyone?

Oh man, shes got such a powerful stance, and a menacing look. Bitch looks craaaayzzzayyy...haha wouldn't want to get on her bad side. It looks like your shading is coming a little more naturally and confident. You are beginning to play with it a bit which is cool. I like the color choice, and how bold everything is...cool design,nice strong colors, and as always...bad ass bg stuffs.

Crazy B!tch vs. Ocelot? Round 1! Fight! :D

I like your choice of colors man for her trunks(Philippine Flag) hehe. I would suggest being more careful in coloring the face. More specifically her left temple and cheek area, assuming that the light source is coming from her upper right side. Darker on the left side maybe? Careful on the face planes as you had advised to me. :)

so late to this party. she looks fierce. intimidation i get from this pic. really gives me a sense of the character just by looking at her face. the colors are another part that sets it to grid and hardcore power. i would say the head band colors do that. the rest of the colors are more playful but they don't mislead. it makes for part of the fierceness if you recognize, or not, the colors from the real life fighters. so maybe more of the grid comes from your shading. idk... me thinks that's it for me. the shading... THERE. it's decided. humph! *walks away fast so you can't contradict my words*

Hahaha Her temple isn't off, it's just puffy from all the fights she's been in. Plus she's supPOSED to be ugly! And that's the actual Thai flag on each leg. The Filipino Flag has the glorious yellow sun on it. And how do you know she's a bitch? What if she's a gentle soul like King Kong but will beat you to death if you mess with her? Hahah!

Haha, thanks, Mills. Color isn't an easy thing to tackle for me so I appreciate the appreciation. Her rough, ruggedness was one of the main things I had in mind. Now that I think about it again, I should've made her hands and feet all dirty-looking.
