Looks good Dolly 
Thanks Celestyna, i'm trying to practice as much as possible
Practise makes perfect, so Im told. I;d offer artistic pointers and all that, but I cant draw for the life of me anymore, alas poor me, and all that :P

You're definatly getting better and better
Great new additions!
Question, is that a tail between her legs (tried to phrase this with the least amount of innuendo but failed =P)?
Also I like the egyptian style background.
Some of the fingernails could use a bit of love, namely the middle finger and both pinkies I think.

When it's a tail, the skintoned background should be melting in with the actual background.
If it's a split in the skirt, then the legs are off. They appear to go straight up *giggles*.
Awesome work Limedolly! "You're drawing skill increased by 2 points!"
As for feedback, lesson nr. 3: necklines! :P
You may want to keep an eye on the necklines. As a great artist once tought me, just below the chin/jaw line (unless you have the light coming from below) is the darkest shadow of the face/neck area. You have the shadow added in most of the pieces (yay! Well done!) Like on Artume and Layla. You almost had it, but the shadow is under her chin/jaw line is the same shade colour as the darkest one you used on the rest of the drawing. It should... or could... go darker *nods*.
Like this...
Keep up the great work!

Oh hey, now I see the skirt....I thought she was wearing pants *blush* My mistake. I did wonder why the bits between were lighter than the rest of the background...|

If it is a skirt then... then yeah that looks way off unless she's got some massive legs. In my opinion just coloring in the slit in the skirt like the background so it looks like she's wearing pants would look best.
Just my opinion ^_^; Sorry about the mistake earlier
*steals SenseiBlurs pants as punihsment*

Some great tips DD and Lime, artists and art forumites helping each other out with observations and critiques is actually pretty
common here. I've received lots of great feedback and tips along the way (and hopefully have given some as well).
I'm wrapped up ordering parts for and building three custom computers at once currently (Black Friday
is nigh!) but when my workload settles down a bit I'd be happy to give some critique
or possibly do some punch up work on one of your pieces if you like.
Also I'm a big fan of the "drawing a day" self challenges, you can really make some big leaps
in a short period of time, I say set a short term goal and go for it!

Lime, your art is looking great so far. You're definitely more adventurous with poses than I was when I started drawing.

I often find myself very amazed at what people can do in so little time. I do try to challenge myself to work faster...but somehow.. I always get stuck in detailing and LOADS of smudging... as I loooooovvve smudging. *shrugs* Oh well. I always say.. I'll get there... but it'll take a bit longer
Though slowly....veeerrrrry slowly my drawings are getting finished quicker than before *nods*

thank you for all the input guys! I've tried to take it all in and i've even found some pretty good tutorials .
I like the hair detail and the shirt design; in particular the twirling it around her finger thang. That sort of pose is always so tricky. :O

It was very tricky >.<!
I think that one detail may have been drawn and re-drawn like 6 times and I'm still not entirely happy with it lol
drawing of the day, Vodouisant :3
Very nice, her hair looks great
thanks! I'm still recovering from a hangover but really wanted to draw something that's why I didn't do any shading *shameful face*
I like the texture you added :3 Nice work here Lime, keep it up!
it isn't city of heroes related but this is what i've drawn tonight.
Kind of makes me think of barbie :/
lol! Barbie indeed comes to mind! *giggles*
Looking great!

Her hands look great, the only nitpick would be her nose looks a bit crooked.
Lets see who can guess who this is supposed to be. Remember, they obviously aren't wearing their mask 
Pink hair, blue eyes.
Hmm, could it be Deedee?
I'm trying to do at least one piece of art every day now and I kind of like how this turned out..not sure if I'm happy with the nose though.
