Oof, I think I'm doin' okay for now, with me posting a new part to this a couple days after the previous one. Granted, I used some old sketches, so uhh... Nevermind that, folks.

Yeehaw, spring break is upon me (or us), and I am a few days in it thus far. During my break, I am gonna try my best to at least sketch a couple times and post 'em here for y'all. The sketching and drawing part ain't the hard part for me; it's the fact that I have to write when I post my art here. Granted, it ain't necessary, but I feel like I gotta, since this is Wattpad. Don't worry, I actually do like writing these little segments for me and for y'all.

Alrighty, enough talking from me. I present thee the little doodle.

I had a great time inking all the details for the hair and the bold inking for the right side— not so much for the sketching process kinda-unfortunately. I messed up on the posing and structure of the doodle. I really wanted to include hand poses in this, but I got frustrated with making the structure look okay (it was 3 am, and I had no references on me). However, I really like the slanted, down-turned eyes, and exaggerating it was real nice to add more of that timid-ish personality. For the lips, I tried something a bit different and pulled a Kim Possible with it; darken the upper lip. I think it fit well with the bold lines I have goin' on. I could've added a bit of value for a soft contrast to the bits opposite of the light source with a hard pencil. Oh well.

Now, I know, the title of the doodle is kinda weird. The doodle had a vintage vibe to it— probably 70s or 80s— thanks to the outfit, and the subject had a sorta scared but shy look to her due to the posture, pose, and eyes. I then thought to myself, "Ya know, the pre-2000s fashion is kinda coming back, so maybe the word 'timeless' can work?" I then used my alliteration skills and mushed timeless and timid, and voila!... I think :V

This was gonna be brought into digital and colored all comic book-esque, but I was and am too lazy to do that.
