      @TamaraDomuzin Lovely! It really does read as the same character 🙂 Though if I were a publisher I might want to see how you handle negative emotions (anger, sadness, confusion, etc)

        @NessIllustration Thank you! Yup, I will definitely show more negative emotions for other characters.

          I LOVE HER! I don't see see any inconsistency in her character. I always become a perfectionist when it comes to this too. If anything, I wish she had something on her that she was wearing that made her unique and fits her personality of fixing things or building! Like a barrette shaped like a tool that kept the hair out of her eyes. Or a print on her dress of gears, or maybe a tool behind her ear. A little more story to her so she becomes the main character of her story? 😄 I think when you start getting into the negative emotions, it gets a little more tricky to keep consistency, but that's only in my experience anyway! Would love to see more of her 😍

            @Miranda-Branley Thank you! It's a good idea what you mentioned about clothing, but I did wanted to make her wear just a dress. Usually when you see girls wearing a dress, they are either playing with dolls or having a tea party, so I wanted to draw a girl that wears a dress, but also likes more ''boyish'' things (hate that I even have to use the word ''boyish'' 🙂 ).

              @TamaraDomuzin I love that! I mean if you have the reason for her clothing, go for it! I completely understand that! 😁

                Hi guys, here's another one. This is Mylo and he loves to play pirates 🙂 . I tried to add some new expressions/emotions, although there are still some left to do (scared, disgusted...).

                      These are great! Your hands are especially well drawn and your characters have adorable expressions. The only other thing I could think you could do to puch further is try an outfit or two more for each character to really explore, maybe with a couple of negative expressions. Fantastic. Love your sketches too!

                        @Judy-Elizabeth-Wilson Thank you! I do use a lot of reference when drawing hands. There are still some negative expressions I have to draw, and I'll think about changing the outfits a bit on a next one.
