    Another most excellent work, dear Kusanagi-kun. Has been so long since I's have seen one of your works that it is so refreshing to mine faulted eyes.
    Thank you.
    May your Muse always shine bright.
    Peace

    I do have to say that I think this is your best drawing. I really like the character 😀

    It is truely your best work yet!

    One comment is that left arm (on the right side of the picture) is very odd. The muscle in the upper arm is too small compared to the other arm (even taking into account the flex), and the little bit above the elbow is just pencil-thin.

    Something about this image was striking to me. I did what I sometimes do to pencils that I like and intend to keep a copy of: I cleaned it up and tweaked some things. I hope you don't mind!

    What I did was fiddle with the brightness curves and levels to remove all the background noise (to have a pure white background), as well as to make the lines a bit darker and sharper. Then I cropped off the excess (including much of the legs since I didn't like them much) I then went over the image with a paintbrush and erased all errant marks (smudges, dust on scanner/paper, other blemishes). Next, I fiddled with the lines in the left arm a bit to try to make it look the proper size.  Then I tweaked the lines in her legs to make them seem more appropriate to her upper body. And lastly, I moved her nose and mouth around to look more natural.

    Here is the result (shrunk down to 50% size):

    I'm not really happy with the legs, and the arm didn't turn out quite like I wanted, but the face came out great. I think that this is a good base for somebody to ink it or colour it. I'm not an artist (I can't even draw stick figures correctly), so the best colouring jobs I can do are flat-shaded, and I can only do uniform-thickness inking that I don't have the patience for 😉

    It gave me a nice opportunity to try out my new mouse (which I bought this afternoon), a Logitech V200 cordless optical notebook mouse.

    EDIT: It occures to me that I forgot to tweak her hand (the upper one). Oh well.
