Artist's Comments

I got the face from the fourth manga book of Vampire Knight.
The outfit is from a magazine ad.
And the title is from Escape The Fate's album "Dying Is Your Latest Fashion".

It\'s kind of funny how it turned out like this because at first, it was just going to be a bunch of clips from Vampire Knight on one page. Then it was going to be of a girl sad or crying. Then she turned out DEAD! XD

Gotta love it when your mind keeps changing on you...

Anyways, I would like some advice on this artwork. Does the vampire bite look stupid? Does her outfit need to be changed somehow?
Tell me if you have any suggestions. That will be very helpful to making this piece better.

Just so you people know, the dark spots on her body are bruises. She also has a deep cut on her cheek.

Interesting composition. I think the outfit looks good and doesn't need to be changed.
You mentioned in a comment that the smudges on her skin are bruises. However they look more like accidental smudges, mostly because the white part of the paper is also smudgy. I think to better show that they're bruises would be to clean up the white parts of the paper and shade the bruises darker.
Hope that helps :)

Yeah, it does help. Thanks! Do you have any suggestions for the background?

And also, the background is probably smudgy because I did the bruises by taking a separate piece of paper and shading a section of it as dark as I can. Then I rub a finger against the darkened area and then I rub my finger on the drawing where I want the bruises to be. So my hands get dirty pretty fast, which makes it hard to keep the rest of the paper clean.

As soon as I get an idea for the background, I'll work on cleaning that up. :)
