or do i mean Japanese-ish? well, oriental anyway =D

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how do you drawlike that sob sob
tsippie: on 04/17/2006
i got the idea from some book cover of the HDM, but there she looked more like a native amarican.
: on 04/25/2006
I like the oriental look (it's the eyes isn't it?) it's not how I imagine Lyra, but I still is her... If you see what I mean.
silversong: on 04/26/2006
nice, but the hair looks a bit like a doll's, and the eyes have no depth. love the lips, though!
Zippy: on 05/02/2006
very nice! very simple and classic. her eyes do look too dark however. still great though :)
Missy-Me: on 05/12/2006
mm, I don't like this one.. Others are better
KittyKat: on 05/12/2006
well, she's not a Lyra from Oxford, obviously, but it's still good, and Oxford COULD be anywhere in her world..hm.
tsippie: on 05/14/2006
missy-me, have you ever heard of the thing that if you don't like some thing you're not seposed to tell it to the person himself? if you didn't notice, i am the artist of this drawing.
kittykat, i don't think lyra's oxford is at the same place of our oxford, because she came to cigezze from a mountain in the north, and will came there from oxford.
glittercloud: on 05/29/2006
wow, she looks like my cousin, i'll have to show her that some time, very good sketch
tsippie: on 06/01/2006
thanks.
KittyKat: on 06/03/2006
good point, tsippie :-) i wish I could draw faces like that its awesome
BTW, Missy_me is Dutch and probably has a VERY different image of Lyra, so don't worry.
tsippie: on 06/04/2006
thanks kitty-kat, do you know missy-me? i'm dutch too.
TheDanishGirl: on 06/05/2006
I think Lyras Oxford is at the same place as in our world. The Angel Xaphania explaines it in the second last chapter in The Amber Spyglass. So there you have it... But I think that the drawing is really great. Lyra looks very close to how I imagined her
tsippie: on 06/08/2006
even if i drew this drawing i didn't imagine her at all like this
Jenny: on 06/13/2006
I totally understand you, Tsippie. I didn't imagine Lyra the way I drew her. You just have this image of her in your head that can never be transferred to paper, don't you?
But I still think the picture is beautiful ... I like how the face is kind of simple, and the hair too. You didn't try to put too much detail in it, and I like that! XO
tsippie: on 06/16/2006
thanks.
glittercloud: on 06/25/2006
i agree with jenny. When i try to draw lyra i can never see her in my head. She's only there when i'm not intending to think of her appearance
tsippie: on 07/05/2006
that's because you have a picture in your head, but your mind makes it inposible to draw it the same way as in your mind, and there are ways to make it more the same, but i don't really know how to do it. and i'm not really making this up.
KittyKat: on 07/08/2006
i know! i hate it when that happens, it's so frustrating.
glittercloud: on 07/09/2006
also put eyelids in. Everyone forgets them sorry lol
lyra24: on 07/10/2006
looks really mature... but i like it. probably one of the best 'lyra' drawings here. she looks really serious but still has a childish sense about it. really like it !!!
???: on 07/10/2006
i like her lips and her nose but her eyes? um let me just put it this way ...they dont have any pupils
tsippie: on 07/14/2006
sorry about the eyelids and the pupils, i never draw them.
Savvy: on 07/22/2006
wouldnt Lyras Oxford and Wills Oxford have to be somewhat close? i mean if they go to sit in the garden on midsummers day to be close to each other, well there ya go < right there.
tsippie: on 07/25/2006
then how come lyra and will meat at the begining of the second book if he came from oxford and she came from the north?
silversong: on 08/13/2006
cause they meet in citagazze :D
tsippie: on 08/13/2006
but from two diffrent sides of the world?!
silversong: on 08/22/2006
I don't think their worlds correspond exactly. also, all the worlds are layered inside and around each other, so you could cut through lots of different places when you're just going ffrom world A to world B. Sorry-I'm getting really of topic and confusing!!!
tsippie: on 08/24/2006
you got a good point!
Mockingbird: on 10/15/2006
Good work about the mouth and the nose. I would work on the expression in her eyes and the flow of her hair, very nice sketch though.
glittercloud: on 10/20/2006
yeah about the world thing I try not to think about it too much. It just confuses me. :) I like her hair. Kinda looks like she's been on the roofs all day. Goody good
tsippie: on 10/22/2006
she probebly was.
America the beautiful: on 01/28/2007
oh well, i can't actually see this one cause it's so faint on my computer, but i'm sure it's good form the other comments.
tsippie: on 02/01/2007
thanks, try printing it, then you could see it.
