Made for this week's RAP home sickness although I'm not fully sure if her expression is not more one of apprehension. The scene and Character is from Where Red Apples Lie if that was not familiar. Comments appreciated as always.

Nicely done Griatch.
I really like the minimal use of color,
combined with the overall gray scale look.

She does look to have something on her mind. Very nice :)

Nice monochromatic, Griatch. Going graphic art are you? :)

Nice! I like this a lot. I like the hint of red from the life preserver to keep the hint of red theme in the gray-scale images for this character. :D

I think her lip looks a tiny bit skewed, but that could be the angle of the image.

Good work! :3

Nice piece Griatch :). I like her hair blowing in the wind - nicely done and I'm with Moko on the life preserver vs the grayscale - nice touch - it just makes you wonder whether or not the life preserver might be needed later on the voyage!
