@davidrevoy lovely!
I noticed your characters sometimes have small noses. Do you have also a nice cackling witch with a massive horn of a nose?

@yon Thank you for identifying it like this. I often feel that my style is gross, just a mix that is too anime for the European realistic comic scene, and not enough "moe" for the anime scene, making my own path into that.
Oh yes, Deedlit is defintely the blond elf that marked me the most. I remember the VHS of Lodoss War we rented with friend when we were eleven y/o, they felt magical, especially after playing horror movies, and Jurrasic Park on NES. One of my first contact with high fantasy.@davidrevoy I think that if you start categorizing art, and you start getting more specific as you go along. In the end you will end up with David Revoy, this Thursday.
That’s your actual art style. It’s not the same as Wednesday or Friday’s. All art styles are unique.
And on the flip side, as a consumer I either like it or not. That’s it.
So I think a lot of people just overthink it. Because they are probably not liking or disliking the anime/manga style. They like or dislike certain ones.
I mean not all Japanese comic art is moe, some are abstract or harsh.
So that’s a long way of saying that your style is yours, and for us that likes it it’s great. I love the mix of styles and influences because that’s how *all* art comes to be.
Also I love the whole European folklore turn Sword and Sorcery turn into a Japanese thing. From Deedlit to Frieren
I mean who had a fit when Tolkien didn’t exactly follow old Norse elves after all?
Keep doing your thing, it works

@davidrevoy she's so cute that I think she deserves her own spin off series.

@brunobord I had the thought this afternoon too. I'll try to write for that and see if I can come with something. I have a sort of ending/conclusion planned for the Avian Intelligence series on April. Maybe Amall can be a good way to keep a link and continue on something else, like the elf tropes, or Frieren tropes, or zelda tropes.

I like the drawing, and want to highlight that it feels like the one that you'll remember and recognise, to the point that for a second I thought about a specific character.
Your character looks drawn in a style that the new wave of fantasy anime uses nowadays - particular for the Marcille, https://www.pinterest.com/aprilreedy1803/marcille-delicious-in-dungeon/ -

@davidrevoy She's pretty :3

@KFears Thank you! Yes, I would hate the ambiguity here (it's an anime trope that disgust me, for real).
Younger, I had a good friends that wasn't tall, and I'm inspired by her when I draw Amall.@davidrevoy @KFears great to have you aware of the adult/child style!
She just looks very (unhealthy) thin to me. Will there be a nice character more on the "average healthy" side one day? (Healthy in a realistic scientific way not an influencer / advertising / model / manga way.) -

I still have more anatomy work to do
