Wow, great advice!

I study references as well and yeah, their anatomy is pretty hard to grasp. The same happened to the Winx style, that I finally can do with only few references.

My biggest hardship with this style, however, is the eyes. I can never manage to do them right, unless I have a lot of references (like I did in my latest Jacklyn art). However that makes my drawing looking too much like the reference that I used and makes it posdible for others to think that it may be traced.

(I do trace, sometimes, but I always admit to it, when I do.)

I normally do the shading like I do when drawing in my style, to give it an unique look.

And yes, Daisy is a great inspiration! I follow her art on DA and it was thanks to her work that I managed to finally understand the Winx style anatomy, which she also draws. She makes it look so fluent!

My dream is to commission her one day, but for now, I can't afford it.

And you're right, the writing  is the foundation of a great character. I just like to add art, so that others can see my ocs like I do.

Thank you very much for all of the advice. I'll cherish it!
