So here's a quick sketch and story of a heroine I've been developing.

Sonomi Fukuzaki - Cricket Girl

Sonomi was genetically enhanced to be a super soldier for the Japanese defense force. Due to their poor organizational funding, Dr. Fukuzaki uses his own genetic material for the highly secretive super soldier project instead of monkeys.

The outcome was unknown when she was born, but as a child, Sonomi had the natural ability to jump really high. She excelled at gymnastics, but her poor vision restricted her from competition. She was adamant about not putting things in her eyes so she wears glasses instead of contact lenses. This is her main drawback, since she is always losing, breaking or forgetting her eyeglasses. She has caused major collateral damage because of her lack of aim and her use of high exposives.

As an adult, Sonomi was rejected by superhero and mutant organizations because of her poor vision, but she always suspected it had something to do with her bust size. It seamed to her that all of the well endowed heroines just get all of the attention. As a result, she has quite a complex about it.

Abilities - Flat chested (Giving her an 80% chance of not being seen by men), Able to leap high distances. Uses High explosive munitions and wears special "sticky" shoes developed by her father.

Weaknesses - Completely visible to women, Near sighted, Low Stamina, vegan (the low protein diet keeps her slim, but she is always tired)

Real Name- Sonomi Fukuzaki

Occupation - Part-time worker at Starbucks Coffee in Shibuya, Tokyo

Here's the head. It's taking awhile just to nail the detail in the face. I gotta do the ears and hair next as well as round out the proportions of the body. =)

Rounding out the body and the more of the face. I'm not happy with the hair so it's definitely not final hair.

Painted some quick textures for the face. Now that I've got a little more time, I'll go ahead and add more detail to "cricket girl's" costume.

Sure would be nice if I got some advice or comments. Anyone have any suggestions for the hair?
