Description Well, I was being ambitious again! XD I wanted to draw an iguana for some odd reason and I wanted to draw the iguana with an exotic looking girl. So, the girl went totally fine and then I got to the iguana and realized that I was a crazy person! Because iguanas are covered in tiny tiny scales! D:
You can view the lineart here: [link]

Anyway, doing this reminded me of my iguanas growing up and I miss them horribly. I want another now! T3T

PS. I DREW every one of those scales. @______@

really cool work, I love the composition, and how bright the flowers are compared to the lizard and the woman. I also love how her eyes are matching the green in the flowers ^^ Great work!

The top part of girl's anatomy and her hair looks wonderful. The flowers and the iguana surround her came out really good.

You worked so hard on how this drawing was detailed and coloured.

This picture is AMAZINGLY awesome and especially at 5am in the morning, my brain simply CANNOT COMPUTE HOW YOU DREW ALL OF THOSE SCALES. HOW? HOW? HOWW? You are so wonderful!

Also -- that chick is freakin' hot. I forgot how attractive and spunky your characters are, and how refreshing your style is! I love her face, her eyes, how you coloured in her cheeks (a lovely contrast to the rest of the cel-shading, which is awesomeplsteachmehow).

I love the simplicity of this also.

This is so successful, your patience paid off beautifully. I like the contrast in the linework between the girl's face, which is somewhat minimal, and the insane detail of the iguana's skin. Which you've probably heard plenty of, but add another voice to that choir!

SailingBreezes [2007-11-20 06:09:59 +0000 UTC]

I almost said, "This is the most detailed thing I've ever seen you do! "
And then I remembered other works you've done, like the Shadow the Colosseus, the Sabakuu-no Gaara, the bunny girl from FF...

Still, this is right up therE with them I admire you for the patience you've put into this! It's gorgeous~!

The detail on the lizard's skin is -gorgeous-. ;D; I also really like the colors you've chosen; I love the saturated orange/red with the softer green. And her lips! I like your use of gradients in this as well.

Koipatches [2007-11-15 03:19:44 +0000 UTC]

I think this is very cool , it would make a nice sticker or something that could go on a wall or shirt :3

But I think that you should have added the rest of the girls head in there, it doesn't quiet look right with out the top of her head, but thats just me :3

I must say though, your iguana is very impressive, though did you do all the scales by hand??

Very nice. My moms iguana Iggy died while I was in Michigan for 2 week. He was 5 years old and about 4ft long. [link] [link]

setsuna22 In reply to corruptmind [2007-11-15 07:12:14 +0000 UTC]

D: He was so cute! Mine died while I was gone away too! We were in California and my Dad called us and said that he found him dead in the kitchen (because we let them roam around freely) Apparently, he had been sitting in the sun for a little too long and when he got to the water dish, he passed out because he was over-sunned and drowned in it D:

Really ridiculous detail on that iguana *___*

- Only crit would be how detailed it is in comparison to everything else. I feel like there should be that kind of detail in other areas, like the hair. But it really did turn out well! ^~^

setsuna22 In reply to coreymill [2007-11-15 22:04:41 +0000 UTC]

well the only reason the iguana is so detailed is because he had to be. But since the girl is anime styled then she's going to be much more simple than him. But I like it that way :3

setsuna22 In reply to ChadWickNT [2007-11-15 07:13:38 +0000 UTC]

I was saying that the drawing took lik 11 hours or so. The girl only took like one or two and then the coloring the same, so anything from 6 to 8 hours.
