Description A commission for Larsony. I was really not happy with it and almost scrapped it halfway through inking the vespa, but now that it's through, I like how it turned out. Do you suppose everything is proportioned right? I just kinda eyed things. Maybe Haruko is just very tall for a Japanese woman...

Good job, and technically Haruko isn't exactly Japanese...

I think it looks fine! Haruko is a bit tall, but I don't really think she's Japanese since she came from another planet

I've yet to visit Japan, but almost every Japanese person I've met out here in SoCal, is as tall as me if not taller!! Like six footers!!! Gojira!!!

I'm certain nothing is out of proportion. If anything, it would seem that Haruko actually changes her proportions throughout the series.

We'll say the Vespa is a smallframe and then everything is okay.

Please ask her how she holds that guitar aloft without beating her brains out through her nose. Becasue I don't know. I have bruises from it.

Edit: Haruko is an alien though, so length isn't an issue. And she's pretty tall.
Still, maybe the vespa is a bit too small.
But I love it muchly.

I use my 'make artwork not suck' filter in photoshop. Honestly, I don't think my linework is really so polished....

I can ink something in front of you someday if I'm in NY..

Your no-suck filter sure works wonders man.

yeah, haruko isn't actually a japanese woman, as far as I remember, she was about as tall as naota's dad, maybe a bit moreso, but extremely lanky as well. But it looks good, and pretty, and good-pretty. gritty. no wait. Any oddity of proportion is quickly overlooked for all the awesome detail you put into this, still kinda gets me irked off that the "official" review on amazon called your art a weak link... *steams* they have no concept of a great style when they see it.

/off-topic.

well, in Amazon's defense, all of my officially published work is kinda weak... Either because I was rushed or had a nasty deadline or was just younger.... I drew the early pages of darkwood something like five years ago! :lans to draw a comic that looks really good one of these days::

Dude, I love it! Your ability to draw vehicles and everything is so sharp, damn.

As for her being tall, well she is an alien right?
