Description

9-10-13: She was picked! Yaaaaayyyyy! So she'll be in A Sweet Sort of Life! nightmaresky.deviantart.com/jo…

Big-ish Edit: Added her work uniform, hair down from back, as well as a color full body, and colored head with alternate hair color. (To see just the colored images unmodified(had to make them bigger to fit in there), go here>> fav.me/d6kjflw )

Mini Edit: Looked more into the comic that this character was submitted for, and adjusted a few things(these will be in parenthesis, lol) to go with the theme(because i dont know if she falls under the same constraints as the other characters already in comic).

This is an entry for this contest fav.me/d65d60m being hosted by #TheMangaCommunity, it's not done done yet, but this has as minimum info allowed, so I figured I'd enter it and just add to it the little extra bits I intend to add. Like a colored image and then some more back story hopefully. Anywho~ Onto the info stuffs!

Image includes:
Top segment: Her choker necklace, front and back views, "normal" facial expression, her messenger bag(including hand added mango decals), her smart phone with charms.
Bottom segment: Angry facial expression, tired/just woke up expression, happy facial expression, "ha ha, you are so creepy" facial expression, shocked facial expression, chibi of her carrying a bunch of mangoes answering "nope" to my question of it being too many mangoes... Yeah, it's just there for silliness.

If you can't read my amazing handwriting(some info will be provided below so it won't be included here): Mango shaped pendent on choker || Hair ties, lots of them || Weird fashion sense || messy looped bun, hair messy in general || cute kitty pattern socks || mango decals, laptop over the shoulder bag )also full of other stuff) || touch screen phone. case is striped mango colors(red/orange, yellow, green). charms: mango, kitty, teru bozu

Basics:
Name: Camron Liddel (cam-ron lih-del) (or Marina Mango)
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Height: 4'11"
Weight: 120lbs
Eyes: Grass Green
Hair: Milk Chocolate, goes to just below the shoulder blades when down (Soft Orange-yellow, the color of mango insides)
Cup: B
Likes: Mangoes(to the point of mild obsession), the color moss, electronics, camomile tea(with a spoon or two of honey and nothing else), gaming(mmorpgs, rpgs, horror. isn't really fond of fps unless its got some good story to it), coding, caramel candies, "weird" music(8-bit, hang, internet, not mainstream stuff really), webcomics.
Dislikes: Artificial mango flavor(finds it to be an abomination), people who are rude, viruses(and other similar computer nasties),

Msc: She works at a cafe (the kind where people go to get coffee and then sit on their computers all day) as a barista. She's going to collage for computer sciences and lives either in a single dorm or in an apartment near the campus. She's had insomnia since she was little, and her sleep schedule has always been kinda screwy because of it, because of this, she's always tired(she chugs coffee while she's at work). Her hair is almost always a "mess"; she gets up late, runs a brush through it real quick, yanks it up into a bun, then runs out the door. It's not all knots and the like, and it's not dirty by any means, it's just everywhere, her multitude of hair ties helps with this, kinda. Her whole wardrobe is full of "weird" clothing(think like a combination of all different fashions that she just mashes together, as long as it's appropriate for outdoor wear and is comfy, she's all over it).

Backstory: Still working on it~

On to the "inspirations" and reference!
Those kitty socks are totally based off of these socks>>www.sockdreams.com/products/so…
Her musical tastes(I made a short youtube playlist, it's not gonna have everything, but it should help)>> www.youtube.com/playlist?list=… <<pretty much if it falls under the labels of folk, experimental, indie, new age, or traditional, then it's something she'd listen to. (how do I music pick? I dont know if I even listed the appropriate genres that I'm thinking, lol)

Silly technical notes:
I know her hands are wonky... Shhh, lol. I'm also aware that her hair gets progressively messier as the drawings go, that's because I drew all of these drawing over the course of a week and got lazier/more comfortable with drawing her that the lines got looser >.>? Her 'tired' expression is... wonky? I forgot how arms worked, and then tried to fix it... and now it doesn't look tired anymore(hopefully it does to you though... : P ). Her scared face... It looks like she's saying "There's a thing... Right behind you... And it's going to eat your head...", lol. My friend's been saying that the way I've been drawing her glasses in combination with her eyebrows make it look likes she wearing aviators... Her glasses can be full frame, it just looked funny when I tried to do that, and I wanted to try a new style with glasses anyway, so it's all good?

Also, I think this is the most I've ever put into a character that I don't intend to actually keep...

Camron/Marina (c) me and shared with the creators of Sweet Sort of Life~
I hope you all like her! Wish me luck!
