still finishing somethings, but here she is! she's gonna have a male version of herself once i figure out how to code a gender switch, lol. but, how do you like her? her canon name is Vitala, but you can name her anything. I was thinking of calling her Echo but.. Echo sounds so cliche lol!

The design look pretty cool imo I think she's going to be an interesting protagonist

Looks really good. My only suggestion is that the nose looks a little weird when it's a flat oval. A pointed shadow suggests the tip of the nose better.

But that's just a little anatomical thing and if it's a stylization choice feel free to ignore it.

But other than that your anatomy is super good, I'm jealous, and the design is great. Her clothes actually look like something someone would wear (and super comfortable at that).

@ josie, thank youuuu! my games will be based off my webcomic's world and all of those installments are named after a major chakra, so i thought she should sorta follow the theme. Vitala is a minor chakra in the legs.

oh omg thank you for taking the time to show me that. i definitely like that nose more, in my excitement i sorta left it alone, lol. and thanks again, i'm glad to hear it! :3 my ocs are all pretty normal kids so i'm glad it looks like something legit!

That's a very good looking sprite :) I like how natural her pose looks, and how she seems to exude a certain personality. She also looks pretty unique. Just one minor thing... the colouring on her lips looks a teeny bit strange. Maybe hardshading would be better here? If it seems to aggressive, you could try softening or soft-erasing the edges a little. But with that purplish-grey colour, this might not pose an issue. Other than that, great work :wink:
