Sula's Sketchbook

[Lyraina]

I like 3 for a nice variety of both design-lines and also line weight. 6 is pretty appealing too, but feeling more "light" and just different, less focus on single lines. 7 does not read as a 3d form to me, but more as if it was a kind of relief (like you would have on a coin - do you know what I mean?), probably due to the placement of heavier lines. 5 is nice and clean and would work as a base for colors and stuff, but doesn't really call much attention to the lines itself.

Lines and technique aside, I'm not sure if a girl with arms as trained as in 1 and 2 (and also 4 to some extent) would have such a thin upper body/waist? Would think she'd have some more muscles around her stomach or obliques as well. Not sure if this is true or not, but for this reason the armored arms work better for me.

Really liking the girl in #1188 :) Can't wait to see all your inktober greatness!
