New character idea. Her name is Tourniquet. If you can't tell, she does have Tourniquets around her wrists and on her leg. I have a bit of a story to go with her....

Tourniquet once tried to kill her self and for doing such a thing she has no been cursed to live as the walked dead. Her wounds forever bleeding, no matter how tight her tourniquets are, the wont stop bleeding till she can learn to love herself. Also, she wears a mask to hide her shame for what she has done, leaving just one eye showing so that her blood tears can be seen. So, till than she will forever bleed and suffer her own death over and over again till she learns to love.

I might make a few changes to her look still, I've been thinking of adding a trouniquet to her neck and maybe making her tail different. But over all, I kind of like her.

;.; Gwen? Kay? Cant we all just get along? I mean there's no real form of originality anymore scence everything's just been done. Just gotta remember that you two are good friends outside of the art field. Without art, you two almost always seem so close, then one person says the other copied and the other get's defensive. I'm not saying your right Gwen, and I'm not saying your right Kay, I'm just saying maybe we should put our pencils aside and remember our true friends? :( (Sad) Hug

Miss ya both..

Kay I'm not. Your retarded if u think that.
And you are being nastey to ALOT of people lately. Not JUST me.
Read some of your other comments. Like the ones on your pic u drew of u and Joanna. Someone just told you what he though was wrong with your pic and you spazzed like a retard kid and went off on how you can shoot down everything he says. He was right about Joanna's head its too far back.. I tried to do that pose myself and I can't put less my neck was broken.

And I'm NOT saying oh all dead characters are copywritten to me. I'm MERELY STATING A FACT. If you don't like that fact too fucking bad. As I said before THE TRUTH HURTS... BADLY. And if your getting to pissy over this simple FACT than you know your in the wrong. I never got nasty with you.. It was you who went all pissy and shit everywhere over a simple comment. I never DIRECTLY SAID "OMG KAY BE COPYING ME AGAIN." I just said wow how similar.

Either way your just jumping on the bandwagon. I've never heard so many people obsessed with a group I've never heard of before, most of which are little poser teeny boppers. Yea the music kinda pretty.. But for the most part I consider it lame. She's just another "OMG I'm such a goth chick deal with me and my angst." type in my eyes. (( I've dled some of her songs before you go off the handle and say u only heard her once. )) I'm happy she influences you. You can keep her ok?

Also it seems like most of your Proud to be an american pics are just to get yourself attention. Stop the "I'm fighting pay attention to me."


And if YOU REALLY want to further this argument you can write me a note here on DA. I hate comming back here and giving your picture views I don't think it deserves.

I'm not being nasty, I simply stated that your characters had no influence on this character. And that story is only part of it. Others seem that I should write a full story/comic for her and I started that today.

You don't own the market on characters dealing with death.

As I stated in another comment, Tourniquet was born forth from the song she is named for...a song about death, about suicide and weather or not one will be forgiven by God or will they be cursed to forever live with the choice they have made.

Again, I'm not being nasty, but I do have the right to defend my self and the character. Please don't start pulling the 'I'm original and your copying me. Dead characters are all copyrighted to me.'

Yea ok Kay. Even the story is similar to Kolobos and Jakill.
And stop being so nastey to everyone. Just cause your pissy about other things doesn't mean you have to take it out on everyone else.

I MERELY stated a FACT.

The truth HURTS.

Yes well Gwen, she may remind you of your characters, but your characters did not inspire me to draw her. Your characters never even crossed my mind once. Tourniquet was born out of the song for which she is named for.

To Alitax:

Thanks for the comments, as always they are helpful. Again, she is still in the works. Nothing more than a quick doodle job, inked and than colored to get a basic idea. But I will keep in mind what you have said. Thanks!!

Sounds like she's a kind of role-playing character. The bandage on her leg works perfectly; adding one to the neck might be overkill, especially since the choker+lock looks good as-is. The arms look pretty stiff (intentional?) and the thigh is awfully long...it's so easy to draw anime/furries with insanely long legs, but right now I'm wondering if she has a knee or if her calf muscles are nonexistent.
The tail looks fine this way, since it helps divide the picture between its low detail, the fairly low detailing around her head, and the "busier" (line-wise) section of her torso.
Maybe shorter, spikey hair? The long bangs look cool, but the blocky, blunted ends beside her hips are confusing at a glance and worth messing around with.
