Description 11 hours and 68 layers later I finally came up with something original Introducing Book Magic! I LOVE to read, and this was one of the funnest and most frustrating things I've ever drawn. I really, really stepped out of my comfort zone for this one. Can anyone guess all of the books I used for inspiration for this? (there are five significant total)

We are the dreamers. The ones who hope for just a little bit more in life. We're the ones that are a little bit different. We are the ones the world cannot understand, but we are the ones that understand the world. There are no limits, there is only you.

Here is a somewhat continuation of this piece. Presenting some gamer girl magic!:

Hello. I featured your fan artwork here  Hi + National Book Lovers DayHello members of ECE-Group!
This is Carlos Escamilla here!
I have great news for myself. Because many audience love Pixar Play Parade & new floats this year's Pixar Fest in Disneyland Resort & many more reasons, Team Disney Anaheim Cast Members, who are in charge of Entertainment Department, decided to let the parade extend from September 4 towards the end of September. It was supposed to end with Pixar Fest next month, but there were change of decisions. If possible, Pixar Play Parade might extend all the way towards the last day of October 2018 or after A Christmas Fantasyland Parade opening on November of this year in Disneyland Resort. After September 4 2018, Pixar Play Parade will only perform one time a day every weekdays; every weekends (Including Fridays), it will perform twice. I'll keep you updated on the parades. And yes, I look forward to keep on performing with Pixar Play Parade!
All righty, today is National Book Lovers Day. We love to read our favorite Books from the pas

I can only guess Narnia, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings. Besides that I'm clueless, maybe later I'll look through the other comments to figure it out.

Love the whole concept.
I suffer very mildly from Abibliophobia, which is the fear of having nothing to read. I only found out that it is an actually described condition about 2 months ago.

I think I might have that too O.o I just bought like 10 new books this week. When I run out of things to read I buy books on audible until new ones arrive in the mail, because if I bought books anywhere other than used online I'd be SO broke.

Woow!!! So cool!! And the water effect is amazing!

About the five books... let's see... Lord of the Rings is a fact, and Harry Potter too... The door at the back could be from Narnia. The dragon and her white hair... well, are they maybe from Game of Thrones? And the map, oh the map... it could be from The treasure Island hehehe

Talking about the map, a constructive critique (don't take it wrong, ok?) I think that it's the only thing that seems less real for me in this incredible draw... sorry

Anadia-Chan In reply to Sanaco [2016-08-04 19:37:03 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for your feedback! I definitely agree with you about the map. Honestly this was the first time I'd ever tried drawing objects digitally, and there's a lot that I would change now

Sanaco In reply to Anadia-Chan [2016-08-05 10:26:23 +0000 UTC]

One moment... Your first time drawing digitally?
So much cooler then!! You really obtained an incredibly result!

By the way, have I guessed some of the books you used? I'm really curious about them all hehe

Anadia-Chan In reply to Sanaco [2016-08-05 19:41:33 +0000 UTC]

Ahh I said that wrong lol. It was my first time drawing something other than people lol. My weak point is backgrounds so I've been trying to spend a lot of time on them more

Sanaco In reply to Anadia-Chan [2016-08-08 13:16:07 +0000 UTC]

Oops! Sorry, maybe I misunderstood you the other day about the digitally hehe
And I have to congratulate you because, as bad as I am with backgrounds, yours look incredibly awesome  
I know I should do like you and trying to spend more time on them... but  I always end just drawing without background or doing a simple one hahaha So keep your good work and don't be as lazy as I am hehe

Anadia-Chan In reply to Sanaco [2016-08-09 02:10:26 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much X) 
I know exactly how that is! I've taken to just drawing a really basic background and blurring it, but I know I should spend more time on them. Ahhh, well you keep up the good work too

Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Eragon...but maybe that's just because those are some of my favorite fantasy inspirations Love this concept though- it turned out wonderful! The girl's hair and expression is great and I absolutely love how you did all of the magical swirls and splatters and clouds throughout- it incorporates everything very nicely

Hah yay! Is the sword Excalibur though? The runes look more LotR but I've been trying to figure it out

Anadia-Chan In reply to MoPotter [2016-04-09 21:57:22 +0000 UTC]

I didn't even think of Excalibur! That would have been a good one! It was intended to be one from lotr

MoPotter In reply to Anadia-Chan [2016-05-05 01:19:52 +0000 UTC]

I figured but you know, LotR is also amazing so I'm not going to say anything wrong against it xD
