User blog:Jade-the-Tiger/30 Expressions Challenge

Hi Guys! A lot of you probably know that I was working on this, but a while ago, I took up this 30 expression challenge that I found on Tumblr and I just had to do it. I actually did the sketches back in April (it really only took me a couple of hours or so to do,) but only just cleaned them up enough to post in the last couple of days. I thought I'd make a blog on it so I could go back and find these easily for future expression reference, and also if anyone else wanted to do an expression exercise!

Here's the link to the original post on Tumblr> http://sephiramy.tumblr.com/post/123775064692

I found it to be a lot more fun than your usual "happy, sad, angry" kind of expression challenge, because this one gives you a simple little scenario for each one, and you kind of have to figure out what the character's expression would look like as they react to the scenario! It's really entertaining, and you get to use a wide range of emotions to do it. So give it a go if you want to! :D I'd love to see some of these expressions on other characters.

I did it with Fay (of course) and I kind of mixed up some of the order compared to the posts, so in case you can't read my writing, I'll just put it on here:
