(Marvin E. Fuller) back in '07 or thereabouts, back when she and CyberCorn were on the Gene Catlow comics forum...well, they still are, as I post there as "AmyStereo", in character, every so often. It was also there I began my leptictidium crusade. ;)
I look at this and think it's pretty good considering my skill level at the time. Of course, I can do better now and might one day actually prove it. :p
You also forgot the constructive critiquing on the things that need tweaking about her body. ;) (For the record, the whiskers only showing on the far side of the face was a stylistic experiment that didn't really pan out.)

Actually, other than the whiskers (which she does have), I really don't see too much to critique- Yes, the eyes are more human-like than I prefer (hers are mouselike, albeit yellow-green), but I'm so used to it, since many don't seem to know how to draw mouselike eyes. :) Body type is closer to how I described her back then (I do need to write a 2.0 of her desc, honestly!), and other than her expression (as I've mentioned, not common for her, but like everyone, there are those times, so it isn't completely OOC), I really don't see that many problems. :)
Or, as she often just says, she's just a mouse. :)
d.m.f.

Personally, it was the legs that bothered me the most. Something about them just seemed off to me, although I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Fortunately, I have improved since then, so I can now hypothetically make them look wonky in new ways. :p
What do you mean with more mouse-like eyes? Would they be all black (were she a normal mouse; all yellow-green for her now)? Or would each be a large pupil with the rest of the eye being yellow-green (no whites, in other words)?
Thanks. :) Personally, it was the legs that bothered me the most. Something about them just seemed
First the eyes, yes-- All yellow-green, just like albino mice who have all-red marble-like eyes. (Can't say "solid", as it's more along the same nature as clear coloured marbles, with similar reflectivity-- Which means from a distance, it would look like her eyes are glowing yellow-green, but not the same way as cats' and raccons' eyes.) I based Amy's eyes on both real mice I kept as pets- Some albino or near-albino- and uranium-glass marbles, which I own as well. (They're easy to get, sometimes cheaply, if you search right. :) )
As for the legs, I simply hadn't noticed, and THAT'S a good thing- If I noticed any wonkiness, I'd say, and it's still not wonky enough for me to complain, so you're safe... But if you'd like to take a new shot at drawing Amy, go for it! :D Not that I'd complain about a new Amy pic, or anything... :)
