Fanart Corner - Fresh Legs

Maimi - Airi

The other half of C-ute, the more promoted/popular half, Maimi Yajima and Airi Suzuki. Maimi's face looks off, but Airi looks like Airi. Though I am proud of their shapely legs (and Airi's cute hand on her chest pose), their proportions are too close to their actual proportions for this series.

Kanyon

Kanon Fukuda caricature. Back when she had longer hair. I think I captured her features and character well (those eyes are so sneaky and teasing!) But I think her face shape is more round than what I have drawn. Like most of these caricatures, the wrist and hands are terrible. I think I was going to fix them when I inked, because technically, these drawings were never meant to be shown to anyone until they were finished. But that hardly went anywhere (only one was ever finished.)

Fanart Corner - The Smiles VS Linlinman

Sakichy - Yuukarin - Dawa - Kanyon

Old-school S/mileage in cartoon-style. I drew this around the time Sakichy and Kanyon had their haircuts, hence the visible edits. This reminds me of how much S/mileage has changed since 2009. Like C-ute and other drawings in this series I haven't posted yet, the heads look fine to me, what I was going for (maybe they could skew a little more in the cartoonish or realistic directions.) But the bodies are too elongated. I went from big-headed cartoon-characters to more realistic proportions to... you'll see.

LinLin

Part 3 (final!) of the Graduation Special! (Super)LinLin(Man)! Again, a One Piece reference. She's such a dork. But that's the only thing that really tips me off that it's her in this drawing, so I consider this one a failure. A costume and an aura are not the only ingredients in a good caricature.
