New kids, different style

@smceccarelli oh my goodness yes! I am a zoom in addict! And I know that this has just got to be my downfall towards this kind of thing! Especially because I tend to create my files really huge (like 27x34.5" @ 300dpi; i.e. 10,000 pixels high) which gives all kinds of zoom-in desirability! The zoom calls my name!
I can't wait to see your next experiments here and hear what tips you have to share following your assured success!

... In the last sentence I said "Here & Hear"... sounds like a band name... or maybe a music venue...

I think she is adorable. the hair could also just be one color and not as many individual hairs. Have you looked at https://www.yasmeenismail.co.uk work? its super loose. I could never do it, and I admire her a lot for it.
-
And another one. Not sure this is going anywhere, but it's sure much faster than my usual rendering!
-
@smceccarelli this second one is super cute!
-
What if you tried a style including some lineart (maybe using a "pencil" like brush to have some texture) and then very basic rendering with a lot of texture like you did with these two ? I feel like having some sort of lineart would help having them look more finished... And also would look a little more like your usual work! But the two you've shared look good! On the second one there is something not working with her feet/boots however... I think lines would help define the shape of the shoes a little more.

@NoWayMe Thank you, I will look into that! I see the problem with the boot - good catch.
I have done some work with pencil textures - there are a few pieces in my online portfolio too. I think there is more exploration to do, though. I will spend the next few days doing copies - seeing what goes and exploring other artist´s work. -
I thnk i tlooks pretty loose. I like the multicolored hair. Loose doen't mean you can't have a lot of color!

I am in love with the first character! I wouldn't change or add a thing. With a style like that the simple the better and the pencil strokes that you did are on point.
-
And another one. This is my favourite so far - not too far from my usual, just less cleaned up and a simpler rendering. Too rough?
