I have to say that I like how it came out though I'm not quite sure what happened with Susie's head XD; I was going for a pointed nose look and even used a reference for the dingo guards in Sly 4 but it didn't quite come out the way I wanted ;-;
Anyway... here are the girls' bios, updated :3
Name: Susannah Livingston Age: 23 Birthplace: Tombstone, Arizona Species: Dingo Personality: Susie is a spunky girl who loves to take risks but she often becomes frustrated very easily Story: At a young age Susie was often put in jail for pick-pocketing money for her family. The only piece of treasure she kept over the years was her sapphire gemstone which her mother had stolen and given to her when she was a child. After her parents were forced to go into hiding due to Le Paradox's influence, Susie had an encounter with Toothpick and he struck a deal with her; help him to capture Tennessee and he would reward her in return. After catching Tennessee trying to steal the gold from Toothpick's train, she furiously attempted to attack him but failed to do so, leaving her feeling frustrated that she didn't stand a chance against him and wouldn't receive the reward that Toothpick promised her. As she yelled all of this back to Tennessee, unintentionally, he took pity on her and told her about Toothpick's REAL intentions and promised to share some of the gold with her. After some hesitation, she finally agreed to it and since then, the two teamed up and pulled many heists, which helped Tennessee to become the infamous thief he is known as today. Nickname/s: Susie Weapon: Lasso Whip Likes: Tennessee Dislikes: Toothpick (after his betrayal) Weakness/es: Easily irritated and often clumsy
Name: Aimi Shimizu Age: 21 Birthplace: Kyoto, was taken to Madam Geisha's Palace at a young age Species: Persian Cat Personality: Aimi has a mysterious yet timid personality, which often assists in allowing her to charm her enemies before attacking them and making her escape. Story: Aimi was an orphan who was adopted by Madame Geisha. Unfortunately when she was younger, Madame Geisha often treated her poorly and forced her to do household chores and never taught her how to "entertain", even when she had come of age, Madam Geisha thought of her as a disappointment. No longer wanting this life for herself, Aimi ran away but soon found herself caught by El Jefe's guards. She attempted to charm them but was unable to. As she called out for help, Rioichi soon came to her side and helped her to escape. Since that day, the two shared a close relationship and Aimi lived with Rioichi and promised to keep her hidden when Madam Geisha came looking for her. Rioichi would often prepare sushi for the young cat and she in return, would often use the abilities she had learned being a geisha, to serve and talk with the customers who came to Rioichi's restaurant. Likes: Rioichi Dislikes: Madame Geisha Weakness/es: Lack of physical strength/defending
Name: Lady Harriet of Essex/Lady Dragonheart Age: 25 Birthplace: Thaxted, England Species: Fox Personality: Lady Harriet is a gentle woman who loves the outdoors and helping others with their daily activities, despite her royal heritage denying her of these tasks Story: As a child Harriet was born into a life of luxury, due to her royal heritage. Despite her lineage, however, Harriet didn't wish to revel in the thought of her wealth or status, she simply wished to be one with nature and help the villagers with their daily tasks. Many of her family members were displeased of her lack of regard to her heritage and often resulted to locking her indoors. One night when Harriet was sobbing in her room, there was a knock at the door and Sir Galleth entered. He was on a visit to Harriet's father after a battle he had recently fought in and was given permission to visit her. Harriet ashamedly admitted her troubles to Galleth and apologised for taking her family's name in vein. Galleth sympathised with her and provided comfort to the young girl, saying that he would allow it so that she could leave the castle whenever she wished to. From that moment on, Harriet often took any opportunity to meet Galleth in the village and the two would often spend time together. Likes: Sir Galleth Dislikes: The Black Knight and those who wish to harm the villagers Weakness/es: Lack of physical strength
I think the left one might look better either without lipstick, or with just the small red lips and no longer mouth line. And a touch higher/flatter chin, cause it appears a bit long.
Looks like I have a thing for headband jewelry ~ I dig the right one. That's probably what got me into Tikal, too. x3
Susannah and Dragonheart I mean. Sorry... xD

I think, the easiest way is to take a reference, then try to mimic a 3d structure. Construct it with basic 3d shapes. Balls, cubes and such. Combine shapes, and then add finishing touches (where you blend further together, to effortlessly and quickly get a perfect result).
It's very useful to practice with shapes, cause you can advance tons.
I saw you complaining about your works. See, your skill and experience with drawing tools, how you handle them, etc, what you got in years, is something that can't be obtained in 5 minutes. 3D visualisation, using guides, etc, that goes way faster, and sure, that can make things more impressive for you; but your drawing skill is far more essential and valuable. So, I don't think you should think less of yourself if you aren't satisfied with something. Get it what I mean?
I know it's more fun to draw freehand though. If something doesn't work, you just need a quick 3D visualisation and practice. After, it's easy to nail it freehanded.
...of course, I don't think there would be catastrophic mistakes here.

...and let's not forget about the middle one. x3
