It's Midna... from above. I originally intended to work on some Maya modeling and possibly some texturing tonight, but a little doodle turned into this thing and I didn't want to stop until it was finished... and thus I found myself drawing until April Fool's Day.

I tried adding in a bit more perspective and some more accurate shading, but I think the small size of the original drawing made it difficult to get the rendering right- that, and I'm too hesitant to screw it up.

Her markings and hair holder are certainly way off, because I haven't considered them in a long time and didn't bother with a reference. Overall, I'm fairly happy with the result of this work.

Midna is copyright of Nintendo... and I'm not sure where that dagger/knife thingy came from.

Thanks, Razz. Glad you like the pose and choice of perspective. I'm trying to branch out a bit in those aspects of my drawings, so it's nice to know this one was at least somewhat successful. =)

Thanks. I *was* going for cute on this one (weird dagger thing excluded), and the fact that it's Midna makes that a lot easier. =D

The shading looks great! But her eyes are kind of flat.

Why thank you, Lules. =)

I definitely agree on the eye thing. I made them a bit flatter than they should be, because I didn't want to make her look bug-eyed, but after I went back and started coloring this thing, it became very obvious that they look waaay off. >_< From that perspective, were they really spherical, I don't think you'd see the bottoms of her irises, or at least they'd be a different shape

That's right, you shouldn't be able to see the bottom of her irises, and I also think the eyes are so stretched to the sides.
