Makkon: no, I don't want my name on this. not that my opinion counts for anything, but I think this should be deleted, and AI art should be banned from the booru
Makkon: damn I should have let this one cook a little longer, I messed up a lot of stuff, like the shoulder jewelry is missing a chunk under the braids, and the tail is partially colored like the cloth
Makkon: They say emulation is the highest for of flattery, I'm not upset. I think this is a great drawing, but there's definitely some rough places where you didn't have reference (such as the legs and feet). Your proportions are good. Keep drawing and practicing, as you do you'll start to find your own artistic voice. Would definitely love to see more bender prequel characters!
Makkon:
Not bearing in mine stylistic differences, the pose you went with can be pretty complex, when I have a side view like this I like to draw the shoulders and pelvis like cylinders. Try to keep a clear path for the spine, mind where things attach. Also will take time, but work on your proportions. Definitely take some time to draw some straight-on side and front views for practice (from reference, or a chart) and then some 3/4 views. Later, draw lots of poses. I like to use sites like these (warning, artistic nudity)

https://www.quickposes.com/en you can set up timed drawing sessions, if you force yourself to go with about a minute or less you can learn to draw the most important things about a pose as a "gesture" and you'll train your hand how to draw these shapes and poses.
Makkon: If you're open to feedback, Damrok, I can try putting together a redling/drawover. I generally don't offer feedback/criticisms unless someone asks for it.
Makkon: the real impression I'm getting from these is that most people here either really hate the new cloak, or just really really like the arena armor
Makkon: look, we know why you're here
Kaz asked for a single pose, but I usually bust one more than one so he can choose his favorite, and he couldn't choose. Quill-Weave was an unexpected afterthought
Makkon: @Filthypaladin: Thank you! legs are important to me, I try to make them work :)
@AMKitsune: Thanks! I'd argue that every Katia I've drawn is some variation of stylized (especially these), but as far as reasonably proportioned Katia I do try my best.
