Ranma, wearing (young) Nanoha's barrier jacket

Just thought I'd try a really quick sketch of (young?) Ranma wearing Nanoha's original barrier jacket. I probably should've simplified the outfit, but it's my first time trying to draw anything Nanoha, and forcing as many of the details of the original outfit as possible didn't entirely help. Oh, well. If anyone wants to use it as some sort of inspiration, feel free to do so. :D

Very cool.

I think you did real good on the clothing details.

Your crisp like-work also helps keep them from being overwhelming.

I like it. Nicely done.

Is this a redo of a previously used pose? It looks very familiar.

Would be nice to see some different weight lines for the art to make it more dynamic.

Thanks. I'm of the opinion the dress looks terrible, though. :)
I wanted to try to work at least one of Nanoha's 'bunny ear' hair ties into the art (mostly at the end of Ranma's pigtail), but I didn't like any of the resulting attempts.

It's basically my default profile pose (either facing left or right), which I usually use for test/experimental sketches (like this one), or when I'm too lazy. :oops:

I'm down to my 0.3 ink pen, unfortunately. (Well, that and a regular Sharpie. :D) I've got to restock, but I haven't worked on as much art, lately, so I keep procrastinating.

Is that dress or a jacket? Nice pic, but a little confused on what she is wearing?

Have you seen Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha? If not, do so.
It´s meant to be Nanoha´s "powerup uniform" or whatever you want to call it.

Just think of it as her magical-girl uniform/heavy armor. :mrgreen:

The link to the pic helped. Thanks.
