thank you kindly for another DD! i wasn't expecting one ;___;
i'm very happy~
this work is at least half a year old now. it has some issues, as many of you pointed out, but i think it was good practice. if you'd still like to share your thoughts, feel free to (even if it's something many have commented on before, i don't mind~). it's a great compliment for me that you take time to comment!
i read each and every word you decide to share, be it compliment or critique, and i'm equally thankful. i hope you don't mind that i will reply mainly to the comments with concrete questions though.
thank you for viewing this work. if you'd be kind enough to visit the rest of my gallery, be my guest. i hope you'll find something to your liking^^

Edit:
okay, since the problem has been brought up by some people, i'll adress it here (cause i'm too lazy to copy-paste the answer to everyone xD). the head is too small. true. i was trying to hit 8 head hight here (which is what i'm expected to use as a standard for my charas now) but i guess i just overdid it a bit ;__; thank you guys for pointing it out and helping me improve. i'll do my best not to repeat that mistake in future works~
...if you still feel the need to tell me about it though (or just didn't read this babble), please feel free to lol~ i won't get mad, i just might not reply xDDDEdit 2:
okay, just out of curiosity, i checked it with my friend photoshop! she's 8 heads plus heels. so 8,5 total lol
