Alright, so this is my first post. Ever. On a blog that is. I have been dealing with shit at home, but mainly I just lack the ability to draw and finish things and I think they look like crap and I don't want to try to finish them. So, yea... This is what I put together.

Alright. Adam I moved the hand to a lower position because of the gaze in her eyes looking past the hand as if at some target or opponent. So I figured I make her into some sort of punk street fighter girl who came from that anime you showed me with the 2 boys who 'rule the city' or something. I don't know what it's called, sorry.
So I kept her eyes forward to look beyond her front hand and then drew the other one to help prove that she is in a fighting stance. I also expanded the canvas to show more shoulder and forearm; you can just imagine that the two come together as one whole arm.
With the hand so large I had to give it dominance and some detail, so I added a leather glove where you can see some stitching and had her tie some shoe lace around her wrist for more of a badass appeal.
Speaking of badass-ness, I gave her piercings and more slanted and dark eyes to portray her as as her and not confusing her for a him. I also took out the tongue because I don't know what tongue would hold itself like that. I mean, it looks like she about to rape some poor little mexican girl trying to cross the border. So I took out the sexual tongue and was satisfied with a half grin to go for an expression that is slightly amused but not underestimating her next opponent. And the collar is just for the hell of it; longer neck for a feminine touch but the collar hides it to the degree to show toughness because Lucy wants to look like she can kick anyone's ass and not a girly girl.

And no, I am not colouring it. Me and colour just don't get along. So this is as close to complete as it really gets at the moment.
