Description Full view, please? ^_^

I blame you for the moonlit sky
and the dream that died
with the eagles' flight
blame you for the moonlit nights
when I wonder why
are the seas still dry?
don't blame this sleeping satellite

Tasmin Archer - Sleeping Satellite

edit: Edited her eyes to try to make them stand less out (thanks Sakky!).

I love this song, and for some reason it always remind me of princess Serenity whenever I hear it. So this is her while still being sealed away, floating gently through space waiting for her soul to be reborn on the blue gem she loved so dearly.

What I like about the drawing: The soft colours (at least they are soft on my pc ), the background
What I don't like: The anatomy, her face :/

Doing images like this is still really difficult, especially when it comes to the little details! Therefore her dress is also a lot simpler than in the manga. Anyway, I still like this drawing, even if I think there are a lot things that could be improved! Maybe in time!

This looks beautiful! I agree that the soft colors and the background look really good, and I love her hair and face. I think her body looks really good, and the simpler, shorter dress seems to fit the mood of the picture very well.

She's lovely :3 I love the lightness of it, though I think the black in the face stands out as a little strong against the rest of the colors. I think the anatomy is good, she sure looks sleepy

Thanks! I agree, the black is just too, well, black. I've tried to tone it down a bit, but I've been thinking about maybe just re-drawinging the lines in brown or something.

Yeah brownish, or maybe something slightly darker than the skin tone with just a hint of the darker colors near the edges for the lashes. Detail like that is hard *nodnod*
