Wonderful work as always! It's a gorgeous concept, executed with consistently beautiful artwork.

You should seriously look into illustration or something similar. You'd be perfect at it!

Ooh, pretty. For some reason, his hair seems a little odd to me. I think it's that there's layers and I always thought that kind of odd that chunks of hair suddenly appeared, but I think I'm getting more used to naturalistic hair (you know, where you show the strands in the coloring? I'm pry using the wrong words). It does give his hair more depth though, how you did it.

*discovered the name, but for sake of the others won't tell where it is*

Hm, art feature...depressingly, I've been in a somewhat of an art slump/studies of sorts, so the stuff I'm producing are studies or just not the best. *shrugs*

I'm going to a private art college next year so I'm looking into their illustration programs and there's a high chance I'll be taking those classes :3

I'm used to creating anime hair with little hair layering so I wanted to try and make it more detailed. I just need a bit more practice to make it look right xD

Thats a really awesome pic I love the backround

**Proline** · 04/14/08, 03:44 AM

I'm still looking for his thumbs ;-;

Otherwise I must say it's pretty nifty. I'm not an abstract artist, so I really enjoy stuff such as this.

**Nelo Angelo** · 04/14/08, 07:31 PM

I still cant find your name in it..where is it? :(

temptation · 04/15/08, 02:19 AM

Wow, that's beautiful. I love the colors, and it's cool how your name is on the tree's trunk.

Blight · 04/16/08, 02:33 AM
