Description

"No
I don't want your number
No
I don't wanna give you mine, and
No
I don't wanna meet you nowhere
No
I don't want none of your time, and

No
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me..."
TLC - No Scrubs


:heart: For *incredibledictu for catching my 50k kiriban (as well=p)~ :heart:

Well, this is one of my 'experimental drawings' as you can see very well:B I started drawing it when I was in a state where I couldn't stop listening to this song;A; and, as weird as it sounds, in my imagination the drawing CAN fit the song:B

Don't ask. My imagination works weird.__.

One thing though: the girl was inspired on one of the members of the group. When I saw the girl on the video of the song I just thought I had to try to draw something different and I did something based mainly on her hair and extremely heavy make-up:B please don't kill me for the lips, I always sucked at them and doing black lipstick is even harderD:

Anyway, I hope you'll like~ :love:

:bulletred: Time: 25-35 hours, I can't say:B

The moment i saw this on my INBOX i knew how MUCH you have improved my friend! Congratulations! You talked about a little experiment? Now i see what you were talking about! I see a big difference with your previous linearts indeed. And always you with your AMAZING COLOURS wich shows a lot!

But there is some stuff i would like to point out. First of all is the background you put. It's beautifull BUT i feel that the colours are VERY weak. Like you didn't put enough strenght on coloring them. Something you can do to "increase" the "power" of the background, the impact of it, is to put a black outline (or another strong color) on the squares, like this drawing <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="17" height="16" alt=":star:" title="Star!"/> [link] (see how the black and purple helps to give "life" to the colours) i think that if you do that... it would help. But that's just my opinion.

Honestly i really like your new style, and i would like to see more drawings with this new one. What called my attention were the eyes, why? Because they doesn't look 100% anime, they are more "semi-relistic", more like an "proper style" of yours. And THAT'S is VERY amazing. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m…" width="15" height="15" alt=":meow:" title="Meow :3"/> I like this girl most. How you shaded the eyes, and the eyebrows, AMAZING! 8DDD

I know that about the lips, but i would like to point that Black was not the best option either. Black lips are related to gothic/dark style stuff. Since you do rainbow/colorfull stuff i would like to suggest (taking advantage of the hair color of the character) to use a combination of RED and a DARKER RED. Lips + hair if combined, looks awesome nice! But again, that's just my opinion. Try to use "bright colours" NOT "dark colours", because sometimes dark lips STEALS a LOT of attention.

The hair is amazing how you did it, same with the dress of the girl! I love them and the pears/bubbles you did covering her are AMAZING! :'DD I love your style Gwen, you inspire me my friend! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a…" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww"/> Sorry if i said something wrong btw. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Have a NICE DAY! ;D
And continue your awesome NICE Style! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/d/d…" width="21" height="15" alt=":dummy:" title="I am a dummy!"/>
