THE ONE.... THE ONLY.... MANDAAAAAAAAAAAY KOKOROAN!! She's my friend 's character from The Slayers. She's like... so awesome and cute... brunette girl who uses a bow. Just wanted to post blahblah! I love Mandy! "Kokoroan Star" lol.
Mandy Kokoroan was a slayers OC made by *mandeh and that was a pic of a Lina Inverse drawing that my friend Jessie traced and chanced the colors of to look like Mandy. LOL.
I love how you did her hair. The curls, and how it catches the light with only the inked lines. Very nice. In fact, the inking is superb.
The pose, while very good as far as motion and all, needs some tweaking in the future. Her arms need to be level across for archery (I'm only going off of what I learned at summer camp and if I'm totally wrong, please correct me), not with her elbow angled that high. It makes the arrow shoot further down and it adds strain on the archer. Or at least, that's what I was told not to do when I was trying it out.
But it still looks really good other than that, and I'm probably wrong anyway.
Well... I was educated shortly after posting the comment that I was wrong and that you can discard all of the nonsense that I spewed out. It still kicks major ass...
I always wondered what that character was.

Great work.

I based her pose off of a drawing of an archery manual I found online
