For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

Okay first off I would like to say that my scanner chewed the colors up. D: My scanner really does suck. The drawing looks way better in real life <3 And if I ever get the chance to meet  I'll probably give her the picture xD; Anyways  Why does she get a gift? When I have like a bijillion other things to do? Simple really, she helped me so much <3 xD She like basically did most of my french summative for me! And God she was like my hero <3 she is my hero xD she deserves like a million bucks even more so! Without her I don't think I could've gotten even close to getting my project finished <3 I freaking love this girl. C: anyways! xD Yeah I drew Dody's hair really whoooshy~! but I like it <3 ): argh the shoes turn out bad on the scanner. :] This was drawn in mech pencil, then outline in a liquid pen and a bic pen for the hair. Then colored with Prisma Colors <3 gawd it took me forever to find her right colors I would say that it took 10 hours to finish this whole thing? xD And the picture wasn't even that big! That's why some of the colors leak out of the lines ): I couldn't get the colored pencil sharp enough That's why my art takes a while </3 the coloring really slows me down. Dody the hedgehog (c) to Art (c) to  Used : Prisma colors ( colored Pencils) Bic Pen, liquid pen, mech pencil. Time : about 10 hours |

I LOVE HER COLOURS
NO BUT REALLY HOLY SHIT CHILD THIS IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE. ;____; It's just.... HJS;DLKFHSKDLFGHVL;JKSDFHGVJDLFKHGV D:
THE COLOURS MAN. THE FUCKING COLOURS. *is blinded by the sheer awesomeness of it* I LOVE how you colour. I mean, I'll admit I'm good with colouring pencils but MAN D: You totally pwn my ass XD Hmm... there any Crimson Lake in there? XD *shot* I love how it's so detailed, it looks almost watercoloured XD I don't have the patience to fill in every little white spot
Though I think the best part of the colouring is her hair. It's so stareable. And it shines. IT SHINES. God it looks like you photoshopped that part...even though I know you didn't XD
I hope one day to achieve your level of awesomeness in traditional colouring :]
...HOLY SHIT 10 HOURS?! D8 *feels special, then dies* The most I can EVER spend on a picture, digital or traditional, is like 8 hours D:
Also, not to seem picky, but Dody doesn't typically look that feminine (mostly the eyelashes and stuff X,D) But really, that totally doesn't matter compared to this epic win <3 Also, I noticed Dody's hand disappeared :] I know it's behind but it looks like it vanished! O8 xD I DO say this to everyone who does it, but it needs to be said: Congrats for getting her design 100% right! 8D I carefully inspected it (just for the sake of this
You're totally welcome for the help with your summative! It was actually fun! 8D *likes doing other people's homework rather than her own EL OH EL*
Aaaaaaand since I probably won't get the pic until summer, I'll just print this out now and put it on my wall to make up for it 8D

|D Yar, 10 hours <3 D: Oh noes you died!! *resurects!* xD; I don't really know how much on average I spend on drawings <3 Time just floats on by when I'm in a muse.
xDD I kind of guessed that she wouldn't be in such a feminine pose <3 But |D Nothing else came to me <3 Lolz. <w< I'll fix the hand thing xD Uhhh later! As you noticed I'm a lazy arse when it comes to drawing hands. xD Lolz <3
xDD Lolz did I really get is 100% right? xD *was staring at the ref for a long time* xDD;; |D Oh hun <3 I'm sure that it's not that perfect. ): I wish I drew it on better quality paper. <3 There wouldn't be so many little white dots. xD That I keep seeing!
