good job, Ariah!! she does look manga-like, are those DOAeyes?? I'm also doing a graphic novel (kind of on hiatus too, there's something called "day job" that keeps me from continuing on it), and I also tweak all my characters' eyes to make them bigger and then apply the DOAeyes to get the complete manga-look... heh, and I also dye their hair green or blue sometimes. do you have your comic anywhere available? I'd like to check it out... mine's here at the gallery, under my name.
