A Simple Anime Picture

I've been working on this picture for two seperate people. Yeah, two, since the first one saw the original pencil drawing and decided to go in a different direction, so I turned it's use for someone else. I don't normally draw anime style, since deformed features like the super narrow waists bother me, but that was what was asked.
Anyway, her is my leprachaun lass.
It doesn't have a background as of yet and I was going to put a bounding circle around her which she can burst out of. Right now, I just want comments on her.

It looks good, but the lines between the colors differing seem too rough to me. You might try softening them with a 3px, about 50% hardness brush. Otherwise it looks too much like vector art confused with anime.

You need to caption it: "A cross-breed between Zelda and a leprechaun."
But it's well done.

That's because it is vector art confused with anime, I made it with Photoshops pen tool.
I could blend the colors and see how it looks, and see how it looks.
EDIT:
Here is what it looks like with the edges blurred a bit.

I like the shading either way, but i think the wrist of the hand making the peace sign is a little off, and her open eye looks a little confused, but otherwise, really cool.

Yes, the open eye looks sad.

It looks better, to me, the second way. -shrugs-

I'll see what I can do about the eye.
*mutters about why can't anime arts just draw almond shaped eyes, which are beautiful and perfect on girls*
EDIT:
Here is the change to the eye, it's a bit rounder, so she doesn't look as sad.

But then the eye brow on the eye makes her look distressed of confused x_x, anime places alot of focus on the eyebrow and eye placement/shape, one must be very careful

I suggest curving the eyebrow up a bit and bringing it a little farther down towards the nose.
Otherwise, a pretty Irish lass

Draw a naked version.
(Speaking for the masses.)

OK, played with the eyebrows some more.
Oh, and DP?
My friend Suzy, who is much more the manga-ka than I, is over right now as I type this. This is our dialogue when we read your comment.
Me: That's how this board is. All they care about it the T&A. Miscreants and savages, all of them.
Suzy: Give 'em what they want, man. Make that elf girl spread that pink!
Me: You'd have me draw my dear sweet fae lass naked and whoring it?
Suzy, Damn right, Dave, damn right.
Me: Maybe I should give her a pair of Glocks, double Ds, and a shit eating grin while we're at it and her being banged by an Ent?
Suzy: Couldn't hurt.
Just thought I'd share that.

How old is Suzy is the question to be asked.

I think her left arm looks kinda off. Maybe straighten out the bulge on the left side and round the right side a bit more to even it up.
I also think her ass should be rounded a bit more, and the fingers on her right hand could use a bit more definition.
So when is Suzy going to register?

Yes. You must get Suzy here. Our predatory nature demands it.

Gil, that looks ten times better.

Sorry to nitpick (again), but make the eyebrow look like this: ^
That is a happy connotation. Other than that, the overall image looks good.

Cool. Is she signing up?
And the leprecaun looks good.

Just because verilon thought it was a good idea.
And guys? Put yer cocks down, please, and stop congesting the thread with questions about my friend.

Remember, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have cared.

Cool! Looks like a female version of Link with the Oracle of Seasons stick-thingy he has on the cover (never played the game
). Her belt seems to be a bit too big for her, but maybe it's just there for the looks
.

I'm really digging the way it looks now, Gil.
