I can understand the eye-sockets, Paul uses the eyes to great effect to tell what’s going on inside the characters; I don’t get the split forearms, though. Have I missed something?
Connie (Conscience, “Creepy Little Girl”) is an elemental – a demon/human-soul hybrid. Her physical form has always been variable – she goes from near-normal little girl to ghoulish semi-corpse as the mood strikes her. She tends to be shredded-flesh when she’s angry or otherwise disturbed, but that’s apparently not a hard-and-fast rule. Maybe she’s just feeling shy or nervous here.
It’s nice to see Connie NOT looking grungy and/or zombie-like.
…. um… O_o
The split forearms and empty eye sockets kind of ruin it though.
And yet, despite the skeleton forearms and the empty eye sockets, she’s becoming a far more appealing character; WAY diff from what she was.
My favourite look is still the cub reporter from when she was playing Shelly against Bia.
Yeah, that’s because she’s starting to grow as an individual

You can see her go through a sudden change here:

and in the following strip.
Ok, I see it now, rolling forward from there you get several examples.
At an artistic level I was mainly curious why Paul had chosen to draw her that way. It’s a cute image in any case.
“We’re just two young souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year…”
Ah Pink Floyd.
Very nice detail and composition, great background!
Hope that thing with her arms doesn’t give her any problems…
