OH MY GOSH, BEHIND YOU!!

So, this is not a comic!! Just a mini post. I figured I should do these more often, with just normal art. I know watching me experiment isn't nearly as interesting as a comic, but, the way I figure, better than nothing!!

Right? Huh?

Anyway, so. This has been on my mind for a while. If I don't think a character is fun and satisfying to draw, then I change it. I'm usually hesitant to make a big change, because then I have people freaking out, and they are suddenly not capable of telling my characters apart (*coughcough*mymother*coughcough*). -.-;; I never change them much... different outfits for different days, sort of thing... but it happens enough that I'm cautious about it. I want people to be able to easily understand my comic, right? When they can't keep the characters straight, it's hurtful to my artistic pride. T.T

So, anyway, I'm careful. But this has been eating at me for a while. Fey's style has become boring. It's been boring to me for a while. And, usually, I am even more careful about messing with my own character, because, well, it's MINE. If I were to change her too often on a whim, I would feel like I wasn't paying enough attention to my other characters. -.-;;

Also, I love this hairstyle, but I feel parts of it are used often enough in other comics that I wasn't being original. Oh, well. Done being angsty complainy artist now.

Sum up for those of you who skimmed: Fey got a makeover.

Conclusion: She will start looking like this next Lesson. Also, I'm pretty sure Mugen is going to keep her emo look... I really like that for her... not to mention, it's a blast to draw. :P Which is a huge factor in deciding how people look, as you all know.

Ivy, out.

P.S. Yeah. The blog title? No relevence at all. Made you look!

Do you think Mugen could really pull emo off?

Heh. Fey's hand gesture just screams 'Oh, that's so NOT the drama.' XD
