Original Content Redraw of my OC Anisa! (by me)

This time, I've revisited a piece I did nearly a year ago, which was already a redraw itself. The main reason for tackling this piece again is that back in 2025, I was really trying to shift away from my then current style and focus more on stylization, exaggerated proportions, and dynamic posing. There were definitely some growing pains, and I think it showed in the previous version.

For example, Anisaโ€™s abs looked a bit out of place in the 2025 piece because I oversimplified things and didn't give enough muscle definition elsewhere. And while the pose was dynamic, it also felt stiff at the same time. I think I was pushing too hard for dynamism and forgot to make it feel natural. As George Lucas might say, "I may have gone too far in a few places."

With this new piece, I feel like I've found a much better balance between stylization, dynamism, and proportions. It looks natural, and everything just feels right, which I'm really proud of! I hope you all like it!

Love the changes to posing and proportion. Honestly, the abs still look a little weird, but the growth in style and rendering is unmistakable. Great work overall and a great show of how a style grows/changes over time.

I like that you got better with the clothing pattern by warping it along the leg! It does a much better job at selling the depth and angle the legs have.

I liked the first one better. You had a style. It seems like you just got taken over by fetishes after that lol
