My UTAUloid's artwork

Well I've just finished the artwork for my very first (any probably last xD) UTAUloid, who happens to be named and sorta based on me.

This is what she looks like, her clothing is based on Pioneer DJ equipment:

I just want to know what everyone thinks (and please dont bother complaining that it's in KEI style, I like his style a lot and it took me ages to do).
Also I was wondering if anyone on here was up for drawing her? I'd love to make a nice art gallery on my new site (thats in the works) of my UTAUloid. :3

There's not much I can say besides the fact that she's not very distinguishable. She looks like just another generic UTAU thrown into the community.
I would never be able to remember her name with a design like that. It's one of those "the voice better make up for the design" situations for me.

KEI style doesn't always mean a one color + black color scheme ya know~ But I assume since she's based off of that Pioneer equipment you wanna stick to that color scheme? Which is fine I guess...let me try and help you so her look is a little more...unique.

You say that her outfit is based off of Pioneer decks and mixers right? I honestly don't see it. It looks like just a shirt with a jacket overtop and pants...and shoes. Since you want her outfit to be based off of that kind of equipment you should add more detail that shows it so that even people who don't know what Pioneer is they can still see the mixing equipment in her outfit.

You could try:

-Adding various buttons and knobs to her jacket

-Maybe a sliding knob on her pants

-Various disc shapes on her shirt.

-Maybe give her some type of mark/tattoo on her body that represents the Pioneer equipment without actually using the logo or whatever you wanna call it lol

-Instead of the cliche detached sleeves that everyone and their mothers has you could do gloves that go all the way up the arm. You could still put the screen on it but you could also add detail to her hand like little lights or something. Or you could do one really long glove and one fingerless glove or something.

-Ooohh...and what about making her pants like long on one leg but short on the other? Opposite the gloves. So the short side of her pants would be on the side where her long glove is and vice versa. Then you could also do something with her shoes.

-Her hair could use a tad bit of revamping...why not instead of making it just orange you could make it like orange, yellow, and red or something.

I always picture DJs as highly creative whacky cool people. And since your UTAU is based off of DJ equipment it doesn't make much sense to me for her to be so plain. This is all my opinion though.

You can use it or reject it if you wish you won't hurt my feelings. And I hope I didn't hurt yours ._.

EDIT: I can still draw your UTAU though...if you don't mind my style. And it just being a headshot(not in the mood for full bodies atm)

Damnit! I knew I should've stuck to my original design, that was a lot less plain and a bit more detailed. I was scared to add to much stuff incase people hated it or found it too hard to draw but seeing as two people have said the same thing I'll add that detail now. Thanks for the tips!

No hard feelings, I hate unoriginal UTAU designs but seem to of made one myself by accident. xD

Can I keep the hair the same? Just orange but get rid of the shine+detail? I tried adding other colours such as black to the hair but it just didn't look right.

I second the notion about leaning away from arm-warmers. Fingerless gloves would be much more appealing.

Could also add speakers or something of the like to the design too.

Anatomy-wise, I think you might want to lower the bustline a little.

Yeah you can keep the hair XD It was just a suggestion lol I think if you make the outfit a bit more detailed then the hair won't really matter lol

New design
Right, Ive edited her a bit. Ive reverted back to her original prototype design which is less crypton-ish. Threw out the crypton-style boots and replaced them with trainers, re-did her hair detail, added some of the detail you guys requested, re-styled gloves like in her proto-art, you can now see her headphones, changed her middle finger-nails to black like her proto-art and added the wires from a old sketch I dug up from my drawing cupboard.

I hope you think this art's better, I really tried my best, she's my 'persona' so this character really means a lot to me. Besides, I like her design a lot more now. :D

@myon
I kinda suck at drawing humans, this artwork is a miracle for me. I guess she just has big boobs! xD

@pizzadinosaur
And most UTAUs dont? Sorry,I get what you're saying but apart from the shoes (which are now gone) and the gloves (I like those so theyre staying) she barely looks unoriginal.

I like her pants.
But the top part is quite boring [to me].
And honestly, what's the fad with the detached sleeves.
