Thanks, everyone.... and thank you for the tips, Wolfrider... I've got one of those wood models but I find it a bit awkward to use...

I know what you mean, Leanan. I hate the way the legs work, they don't seem to move naturally. But I still like the body and arms, which helps me with certain poses.

I like them both, too! Nice blending with the background and that dress is gorgeous!
One thing: Why are the lines so "pixeled"? Could you tell me how you draw these? I think they would still look much better with smoother lines.

Thank you all for your compliments! *huggles martoo, treefox and satiretto*
The lines, hmm I think that's because I resized the images too small before I started colouring... will do better next time... I draw by pencil, then scan and use the contrast and treshold functions of my image editing software to make the lines black...

Hello Leanan !
Aroree is really pretty in that dress ! And that movement in her hair... 
I think I can help you with your lines problem.
You should try to ink your drawings, they would be "cleaner" than a pencil line when you resized them.
I recommend a special ink pen, like those use in calligraphy.
They have a point like a paintbrush. It's easy to make curved lines with.
I use a japanese brand, called "Pentel".

Hey, Leanan's back!
Vey nice new art, Leanan! Aroree's dress is gorgeous, and Arrowspeed looks very fierce and competent, just like I've read about her. . .
The Maleen is very nice. Rich coloring.

Thank you!
I'm posting some of my older art... I don't know if it's better or worse than my newer pieces...
This one was actually published in the back pages of a Finnish Grand Quest book...
