Nice find Levi, I really like the linework-heavy art style! Not sure everyone here knows what "Ecchi" means, mind you. I had to ask Wikipedia. Word for the wise people, don't just Google it. Especially if you're at work.
WEBIAN, I'd suggest you take a step back from deciding if "the all discussion is nonsensical" or not and either keep things constructive or perhaps just
think the "no comment" rather than typing it.
Harri, in terms of more
general background advice - I think I would leave the colours out of it for the moment. Leave it for a few hours then come back and look at your character, and let your imagination sort of fill in the gaps in the space around her. Then try some ideas with just basic linework and apply colour and lighting
only when you're happy with the basic structure.
With it being part of a story, you've got the added bonus of having a pretty good idea of where she is and where she's going. For instance, if the story calls for a street, you've got all those kinds of details to research and reference pretty much narrowed down. Cobbles, windows, street lamps, etc. If the story calls for a different setting like a field, same applies as you know already the specific things to reference and put together.
I wouldn't say you need to post the whole page of the comic/graphic novel for
us to see, but it
would help you to think about the direction/tone of the story, the mood of whatever's going on in it in this panel and the specifics of the character's location/purpose. I disagree with WEBIAN that it is less important due to being a single panel on a comic book page, if anything it means that the panel has to tell part of a story and be connected and relevant to everything else going on in the page. Some comic book panels have become classic pieces of pop culture reference in their own right.
Nerd-alert.
I googled the famous panel from Marvel's Spider-man No More comic, and discovered that later artists had refereced/homaged/copied it multiple times since! As well as it being used for one of the movies. One artist's drawing for one panel in one comic and it's still getting referenced.
