Description once again, zuixii.
Yes, this is the same picture as the reference; although instead of just cell-shading, I added all sorts of effects.
Holy cow I worked hard on the background! Those are clouds from SCRATCH! I experimented with a ton of tools in this picture and in the end was great practice. not to mention all the different texture brushes I used.
enjoy!

Those textures work so well with it. The spots and stripes are an awesome touch.
WOAHHH. I LOVE THE BACKGORUND. You made that from scratch?! wow.. Looks like a real picture, but the colours were jest played around with or something.. If you have the background on a seperate layer and didn't merge it, I say you keep it and submit it as a regular deviation.
This looks like it took a life time to colour... It's so pretty. I think it's your best colouring and background on anything so far.


Awuh mann.. I wish I had your skills... :/

yups the background is 100% original. no photo. no nothin. ^^ I'm glad it looks so convincing. Yeah, it took FOREVER!
Oh! Thanks for reminding me. It looks like I forgot to put the picture details in the comment box. (like time it took/program used/etc)
I think overall though I got lucky. I wont be able to pull this off again. xD I don't think I'd have the patience anyways. lol

Look for it in next week's beauty contest on Neopets.
Thanks again~ I really appreciate your commentary~

That's awesome.
Seriously? Only 4.5 hours? x_____X;; But then again, I guess it is easier with a tablet, right? I use a mouse so it is pretty annoying and I get lazy with it.

I'll try to rememebr to get on nexy week, then.
Anytime. You deserve it.
