I blame Yusuke for this, for the record. After doing Yusuke, I realize that something I kind of want to do is to take a shot at busts of a few of the other GX characters, particularly those accused of being clones or copy+pastes of other characters, either in GX or YGO proper.
The reason my mind immediately turned to Asuka, I think, is that my near and dear friend Batpig (possibly the biggest Asuka fan I know now that he's come out of the Duel Academy closet, the ONLY giant fan of Asuka and Judai I know who doesn't ship them, and beloved of my heart for writing fanfiction in which kicking in the skull of a zealot is likened to smashing watermelons except less wasteful) has frequently complained about the way that she's drawn. "She's supposed to be the Hot Chick On Campus," he'll say, "And I know it's true somewhere in there. But I really can't see it past the pointy hair and Kaiba clone." And I did this while on the phone with him, so, coincidence? I think not.
I have no idea if I've succeeded in my goal for this sketch, especially since before I fixed a few things she looked like the unholy fusion of Fubuki and a giraffe with a squashed orange stuffed in its shirt. However, I do think she looks pretty goddamned hot with a nose (didn't feel like doing the Animu Triangle). Also, that I need to practice drawing women again. A lot.
Like Yusuke, this may be further revised, inked, or colored, but barring commentary I may get on glaring OMG MUST FIX NOW errors I missed, I don't have any immediate plans to. So. . .done until further notice. As for the title, it's a line from a Three Guys With Knives song. According to GX's local terrorist neopagan new age judeochristian extremeist tarot reader, Asuka is The Sun. Lulz.
Hawt. You succeeded. You so did. The hair is so nice and fluffy and doesn't look like it could kill people.
BUT O HAY, there's something a bit bothersomelike. Her neck, to me, looks a bit too long. If you're going to revise anything in this, shorten the neck and bring her chest/shoulders up. BUT DON'T TOUCH THE FACE, IT IS PERFECT.

Hah. You should have seen it before. Her neck was GINORMOUS. I thought I got it, but I guess I should have brought the bust on this bust up a little further. Thankee.
I'm so happy she's pretty~.
