Description
Yvaine, the star, holding the ruby of Stormhold, from Neil Gaiman's Stardust. I like both the movie and the graphic novel but i'm not really fond of her dress in either. So i made a version of my own.This was specifically made for a bookmark design for *twelveofdecember 's birthday so please do not use.
Pencil, watercolours and (lots of) white acrylic.

She's beautiful. With her gold hair and silver dress she looks the sunlight and starlight.

I adore that character. Stardust is one of my favourite books! You really managed to catch her starry essence with colours and lights

I adore the book!! And oddly enough - the avatar I use for a long time now is Wendy Froud's interpretation of Yvaine

I have to say I really love her dress in the film, and really dislike the one in the book. Yours is a nice medium ground, you've captured her glow perfectly

Eeeeee! Stardust...I LOVE that movie! Fantastic design on her dress and hair and I love how her dress blends into the nebula thing behind her. Amazing work!

This is lovely, THANK YOUUUUU!!!!!!!!
I love the dress you've made, and her facial expression, serene but a bit sad. The sensation of light is great, she really looks like the star she is... oh, I just love it! Thank you again!

AH you are an amazing inspiration - -I've done some stuff this year but haven't uploaded any of it! ..
Just wondering if you've ever thought to do a process shot - - not necessarily a tutorial, but just to see the stages you do first etc.
Also - I use watercolour but have had no professional advice -- do you spray anything before/after to preserve it, etc. ? I'm never really sure if I should.
ALSO sorry to be annoying but ever since your 'Moonlight Sonata' I've been mesmerised by the way you do backgrounds, and backgrounds like this ^^ - what techniques do you use to get the blue sky to do that - - as in, be a bit cloudy and patchy in places? - - do you use salt or just drain the colour afterwards? (or have you painted over it? Though it doesn't look as though you've painted over it..)
- the really shiny stars, do you use a paintbrush for them or a pencil? (as in, the ones that have lines coming from them) I am also brought to wonder what the dimensions of this piece are ? -- there's so much detail!
And I totally love this dress more than the movie etc. Everything about this is so ethereal - I'm in love with your background. And your skill. She actually looks like a fallen star. <3 Thank you so much for this! xxx Merry Christmas eve!!

You know....she kind of makes me think of Elbereth. And it's perfect that she's a star, because that's exactly how she looks! You conveyed that beautifully!
A Elbereth Gilthoniel,
silivren penna mΓriel
o menel aglar elenath!
Na-chaered palan-dΓriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon
nef aear, sΓ nef aearon!
