I LIKE it!
You grasped her reaction very well, and reactions are everything ;-)

Given that this drawing of yours is already *very* nice and sexy, if you want to learn anatomy and proportions you can have a look at this useful manual:

Also works very well as an on-the-fly reference - together with copying poses from photographs too ;-)

Thanks Batmad. Don't think I have time to go delving into that book. It looks really advanced. But every now and then I'll try practicing and improving.

Few more additions
From a stage cinderella performance
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxZvhxinqVo&feature=related
The 1997 Brandy rodgers and Hammerstein version (single shoe scenes start around 1:14:00) besides the sheer number, I paricualry like the fact that Disney decided to go the hard route and outfit most of the Characters with old style high button shoes, as opposed to pumps, which would have made the trying on scenes a bit easier (as well as cutting the one shoe scenes a lot shorter, by making it easy for all of the tryers to slip shoes on and off).

While Looking for the other German Oz photo in my stored files, I came across this
and finally, a bit of potentially bad news. While wandering around Deviant art I came on these images from
Red's Planet uploaded by the author. While are are listed as being "preliminary sketches" (which could mean they pre date the whole comic, and he may have simply changed some stuff) if they are going to be canon down the road it meand that at some point (possibly fairly soon) Red is going to lose/remove her remaining sneaker (not a big deal for those here who like complete de-shoeings, but not great news for one-shoe people like me.)

It is a pity. I'm the type that likes single shoe things. Anyway, these drawings were published in 2009, before Pittman began officially drawing his comic, so I'm not sure if he'll write in a loss of the other shoe or make the final draft different.

Not my taste, but this might be of interest to someone here

Also one addrion to the booklist. I previosly mentioned
The Girl Who circumnvigated Fairyland in a ship of hew own design. Well the third book has come out
The girl who decended into fairyland and led the revels there and there is a one shoe picture there as well, sort of. The main character, September, has both shoes this time (they actually mention this in the story). However, since the main villian in this story is September's shadow (which was severed from her in the first book, and she only had one shoe when the shadow was severed, here shadow sized also only has one, and there is a chapter illustration of them grappling. It's not as good a picture as the one shoe one fromt he first book (since the shadow is basically an filled in black outline) but you can tell the shod foot from the unshod one.

I've just found pretty creative loss recently. A girl loses her shoe on a rotating stage.

That site looks really shady. Click continue, not the watch in HD link. There's lots of popups too and lots of download traps. Can you give us the name of the episode/show so we might be able to find it somewhere else?

Random LL Cool J music video from the late 90s.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQsd7y5YbZw
At about the 0:14 sec mark you'll see a big thigh high boot thrown. Then moments after a girl reaching for it. Then right after that, you'll see LL trying to grab her as she retrieves her boot - she's wearing black nylons.

Since you uploaded this here, I might as well put up the inspiration for it.
Not sure if I'm going to upload these to DA though...
EDIT: decided to upload them in my scraps.

Very nice. I like the work you did with Iris and Kneesocks particularly. I'm still working on gesture drawings, since I'm trying to make my art look less like it did when I was 7 (I've taken four high-school level art classes and one college level class). Forms are what I need to work on, since most of the shoe loss pictures I drew as a kid involved socks. I must admit, I'm not very good at drawing bare feet; so I put most of my energy into making the socks and shoes look good if I draw a picture involving shoe loss.

One of my favorite shoe loss scenes of all time:
Drew Barrymore in her "adult" breakout role in Poison Ivy (not the comic character).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq9iY9CVi_w&t=9m30s
Drew Barrymore's character, Ivy, is daydreaming while playfully taking off her cowboy boot, only to realize that she was on a rope swing the whole time. She spends the next 30 minutes without her boot.
She's caught without her boots a few times in the movie, almost as if it was an important plot device - sadly, the next few sequels don't make a mention of boots at all.

Thanks. I did these around two months ago and wasn't exactly sure whether to put them up or not until now. Out of everything, hands and feet are probably the hardest for me. I'm currently taking an art class in college now and we jsut started figurative drawing yesterday, which should definitely help with with correct proportions and body builds in the future.

From my collection, a Peanuts panel (around 1967)
I have always been fond of this one for several reasons 1. It is a shoe loss in saddle shoes (which, as I have mentioned are fairly rare) and 2. It is one of the few cases I have seen of Charile Brown actually getting his revenge on Lucy. This copy is from a book collection; I am still looking for a copy from an actual period newspaper to add to my collection. I want that because, given the number of panels, this is very clearly a Sunday comic, and so, If I can find it in a newspaper, it will actually be in color. The panel
has been published in several of the books (there's a full page version in
The Peanuts Treasury and logically it must be somewhere in one of the volumes of
The Complete Peanuts but neither of them have it in color. I suppose I could photocopy a version and color it myself, but I stink at coloring inside the lines, and it just wouldn't be the same

That's a classic indeed. I have that one on my computer. Finding comics like that on a site like GoComics got a bit harder since they eliminated the tagging system. Kind of have to know the date it was printed and search it manually. DeviantArt, Flickr, and Safebooru also aren't half bad for finding good shoe loss pictures.

I actually have a few other comics lying around somewhere (maybe I'll post them when I find them). and it's not just American Comic strips, I have found several nice shoe loss scenes in some foreign ones, like Mafalda.
