Description Oh gawd the file is HUGE! I reduced the full view to 800 pixels but if you wanna see all the details then press download :'D

This was supposed to be my share of the art trade with but as I started inking the pic I forgot to look at the reference picture and the hair became black instead of Jehneva's orange/red/whatever. Well, I'll dedicate this to =deathofrats anyway, she's been a big inspiration for me and I adore her artwork to bits x_X

I had fun drawing this, doing the entrance assignments made me used to drawing every day so this pic was born in the mood of flow. I loved drawing the clothes, the only part I'm not content with are the shoes (first she had bare feet, then stilettos, the boots 'cause I couldn't seem to ink it right xD). I bet they are very painful to use. Those boots are definitely NOT made for walking.

Lineart ( [link] ) made by hand, textures added in Photoshop.

Ookei, tää on digitaalista? Pirun hämäävää! Näyttää ihan traditionaaliselta.

Harvoin tulee mitään favetettua, mutta joskus halu iskee kuin ...no tiiät kyllä, salama kirkkaalta taivaalta.

Line on tehty käsin, tekstuurit koneella. En oikein osannut päättää kumpaan sen laitan.
Ja kiitos, I'm honored. Itsekin favetan hirmu harvoin.

I love like everything about this ;; I don't know where to start! I love the how you did her hair and her face is so pretty!!! I really love the colors too! I just love how her arm is positioned and how her head is turned. And her leg ;; and how its lifted up. Just seriously every little detail makes this piece so lovely to look at. <3

OMGOMGOMG ILU
She's freaking beautiful!!!!!!!*A* I love the way you drew her proportions because it looks super slender but not overly elongated<33333
The face, the details of her dress, the colours, and her uber-high stilettos are also my favorite parts lol
Thanks so much for the awesome trade!!! Seriously<333

Pretty cool! I love the lineart! Also.. her hair totally rocks Maybe you could've done something cool with her left arm though.. Like holding her hair.. or just pointing it to somthing in front of her... But good overall

aurastiina In reply to JessChipmunk [2008-04-12 14:01:06 +0000 UTC]

I did indeed struggle with that hand, I had no idea what I wanted her to do with it so yeah.

I feel like I made the hair too long. To my eyes it would've worked better if they were only reached the chin level or so, but that idea came after I'd already inked it all. I always feel like things that bother me also bother everyone else, so I must thank you for liking the hair, proving me it isn't so : D

(I'm a self critical fool)

Thanks for commenting!

Hey, don't worry! Everyone is critical about his own work I don't like a lot of my art either.. and if you find one thing that you could really improve, you just start hating the whole thing... That's what I do at least.

But yeah, I like the hair the way it is!
