Artist's Comments

This is my entry for :iconmanic-goose:'s contest. I sort of stumbled across this in the last days of it, but what I saw of the character concept was cool, and so I thought I'd try and see what I could do. (btw, The bg swirls is a font by :icon1lovesdevine:.)

So many things that I like about this. The swirly stuff fits perfectly and it is lovely, so my compliments to the artist you got it from! I really like the detailed shading you put into her, and the colors for the dress as well as the gradation from magenta to almost orange is very nice. Great job on that wall too!

There are two details that I was really pleased to see that you caught that most artists missed, and I want to congratulate you on it. The first is that you color the leg that recedes into the dress (behind the other leg) the right color instead of just making it disappear in the dress, that is how I drew it, but it is hard to notice, and the other is that you made the wall stop before the edge of the dress and the foot, because when I drew them, I intended them to be touching ground, but most artists missed that, so congrats on you attention to detail here. ^__^

I asked a wise man what convolution means, but his reply was rather convoluted itself, so I had to look it up...

I've been wrestling with reality all my life, and I'm proud to say, I think I finally won out over it. ^__^x

Thanks so much for your kind words! I enjoyed coloring her dress - folds are fun, and I really needed the practice. I'm glad you liked my efforts. :D
:iconmanic-goose:
Yes indeed. You're welcome. ^__^

Congratulations. You deserve it. And thank you. ^^
