Wow, this is really well done!
The perspective, the lines, the coloring... so pretty!
*favs* :3
Since I'm a critiquer. xD
Only thing is the closest arm looks a little short. But it's still an amazing picture.

I was trying to do some foreshortening... it's hard to represent in cel shading =/
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Yeah... I see how that would be.
Regardless, I still wish I could draw and color like this. :3

I've seen just about every picture in your gallery and on your website (Nope, I'm not obsessed. Well, maybe a little), and I don't think that I can recall a time when you had drawn a female with such realistic body features, but I do very much like this and I wonder if you're going to keep going in such a direction with your artwork, it'd be great! You can't tell me that it's not fun to draw those great curves, ya just caaan't.
This is very fun to look at. The joy and all around natural beauty of her entire being is radiant like the sun shining down on the forest itself, here.

Hehe, thanks! I dunno, I draw whatever comes to me when I draw it. I do like drawing curves but realism, I'm not much a fan of it ^_^ I like drawing sunlight and only recently have I been spending as much time on the background as I have the focus character so hopefully my skills can only improve from here =}

I guess it's not so much realism, as in the kind of realism you might have seen in rennaisance (sp) art, but more so in the way of anatomical correctness... that probably makes no sense, hehe! Uhm... how to say... *Looks at her arms, tummy and hips* ah, the dryad has plumpness all over her, not just here and there which is what I think happens in lots of your older works, which is something I love seeing, it's inspiring.
That's a good course of actions, I to am tryin' to get myself set on making up a background for my images more often, as well. I guess that it's just what might be the thing that gets us to advance our skills overall, yes, trying new things and getting better at them along the way usually brings about success.

Ah... I love the rubenesque look from the renaissance! But it doesn't translate too well to an anime look. At least, I don't think it does. I'll try my best though ^_^

is the background an actual photo? this looks really awsome how ever did you manage it, the... and the.... speachless its wonderful, love the transparant ribbons around her arms awsome work indeed

great work, and i love how you combined two genres of art and put them together so magnificently.

Thank you. =} I'm always trying new and different things in art... for a while, I tried bodycasting but I neither have the time or money to play with that. =/ My first two attempts were failures...

Oooooh, wow i love it! Awesome. I think her arms are a bit short though. but i love the way you toned her hair!
Gr8 work!!!

Well, I am a bit of a pervert, so I do study women more than men. I need to practice drawing guys more...

I LOVE this..she is so sexy, and confidant.
Nicely down. *bows*

I had the pleasure of working with an equally sexy and confident model who happens to be a good friend. I hope to work with her again someday. ^_^

You've got an awesome understanding of anatomy. Kudos. Only thing though is that the real life background doesn't really mesh will with the character. But damn, love those hands!

I'm not very good at making backgrounds in a vector format... so I tend to use stock photos ^_^ Maybe someday I'll figure out stylistically how to make a good vector background, but for now, I kinda like the photo backgrounds. It creates a stark difference between the foreground and background elements.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Waitaminute, your pictures are all vector o_O?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Yep! Well, except for most of the backgrounds. But the character art and occassionally, the background, and usually all the visual effects are generally all vector. The Blading one, for instance, is 100% vector =} So is the patchwork doll one. I suppose they both had "textures" which were bitmapped, but the linework and coloring is all vectored =}

Wow man, thats totally awesome : D!

Kudos for drawing a female with a little meat on her! I get sick of seeing stick-girls all the time. This is one beautiful drawing!

Thanks! I notice you're local to me... you wouldn't happen to be interested in modelling for me, would you? Or happen to know someone who would be? ^_^
