Making –BELIEVABLE- Dialogue (edited version 3.0!).
So. Was that dialogue an example of what we should do with our writing or what we shouldn't do with it? To be honest, it's incredibly awkward and it doesn't go very well with your descriptions of your characters. If I had to be as blunt as Blank is (supposed to be), I'd say that your OCs are OOC. The general advice that's given in this is useful, but you can't back it up.
Art Stuffs
Lol, Alice doesn't have a thumb. XD
These are both very nice! The coloring on the first one is lovely (although the shoes are a little bare) and the shading on Leon is very soft (which I like, but some might disagree).
Anyway, looking at your Alice, you definitely know there are muscles somewhere in those arms, you just don't know where. Instead of making them up and hoping you got them right just go in front of a mirror and look at your arm in the same pose. On the first pic, your curved line should be close to the elbow, on the other side of the forearm, instead of on the side you drew it. A(nother?) tip from me is that your forearms are never ever ever wide close to the wrist. Well, except when your character weighs like 200 lbs. There are no notable muscles there, so the only thing that could give a weird shape to the close-to-the-wrist area is body fat. I feel like I should mention the bones there.
Mentioning the bones there.
Anyway, try to make your lines thinner (Leon). This is very important in the long run. Even basic shapes are lost when drawing with thick lines and thing is, thick lines cover up more than half the mistakes you might make. That may or may not sound like a good thing, but my opinion on the matter is thin lines>thick lines. At least while you're practicing this is advice you should try to follow.
Aaand the last thing. Don't cross-hatch at 90 degrees. It leaves huge gaps in the shading and unless that's what you want, start with a small angle and layer the bigger angled lines on top.
Hope all of that made sense.

The truth about Santa Claus
In Russia they celebrate Christmas on January 7 so that reduces the workload too.
But then again, their Santa is named Dyed Moroz so he could be considered a completely different person.

The proximity of the eyes makes her look eternally cross-eyed...
I thought they looked fine.
Sry, you thought wrong.
What does it take to push you over the edge?

I have a hard time controlling myself when women are being irrational and acting the way they do when it's that time of the month. The worst part is that if you point out that they are acting crazy because of their female hormones, they will only get more angry at you.
That's only because you come off as assumptive insensitive self-righteous jerks.

Yebisu sounds a lot like 'fuck yourself' in Bulgarian (yebisuh). :D

Where will you be in 10 years? (Discussion)
I'll be 26, a university student and a veteran fangirl. I'll probably be somewhere in the US or Europe.
