I HAVE MOVED TO ~thecapturedspy
Please contact me at that account if need be!



FINALLY done. x__x
This took longer than I predicted and I'm not even fully happy with the end result. But then again, I'm rarely happy with my art.

Felt like doing something random. This little idea just popped into my head soon after doing that sunset picture with Skye; I wanted to do a version with cool colors and a nighttime scene. (This is of no relation to the Skye pic, the girl here is just a random person ^^).

I used *ramy 's background tutorial for the moon although I completely did it wrong. x__x But, it is a passable background in my eyes, because I never do backgrounds. Yay me.

Umm...no advanced crits, please. I do not feel like working on this anymore, and I know there's tons of mistakes, but...I'm done with this.

ALRIGHTY THEN. Now I've gotta go whittle that request list down.

That's really pretty. I love the blue tones and the shading and the butterflies flapping around. I bet it'd be fun to be surrounded by butterflies like that.

other than if it were more round, I don't see anything wrong with the moon. It's very pretty indeed :]

Woww… pretty… I love how the background looks all blurry and abstract. And the lighting is great… And I love the colors you used… And I like the butterflies… And it’s just so PRETTY… *keeps going back up to look at it* I only have a couple of little thingies. The bracelets slightly look like they’re floating, and the shading on the shoulders makes it seem a little like the pearls are foating, too… But who am I to nitpick, I can’t make anything nearly as good as this. *_*

… Makes me wish that I had a coloring program better than MS Paint.
… Most coloring programs are. -_-’’’

Aww, thankies. =^^=
Ah yeah, those bracelets do look kinda wierd. I'm not too good with shading/lighting on skin sometimes. >>;

Aww, but there are people who do amazing things just with MS Paint! I wish I could draw stuff in Paint. -_-
And the program I use is similar to Photoshop, but it's freeware (GIMP 2.0) so you can download it off the internet for free, it's really cool.

It's still really, really good shading, though!
I'm attempting to color a request in Paint (just for fun)... well... I've only done most of the head. Which took me several hours. -_-''' But I'm definitely getting better... the Curve tool is my friend. *hugs Curve tool*

FREE program! Yay! Free is my friend.

Lighting... pretty..... *_*
Taking the time to do a background with this really made a difference. And all the details in the butterflies and pearls, and the moon... beautiful!

Oh,you're getting all fancy pants with your art. Really good coloring job. Although I'm a little perplexed if those light blue things are snow or stars, because if they're stars...they're pretty crazy. If they're snow, you probably could've had some in front of her, know what I mean? Sum it up, good job. Keep drawing.

All those sporatic, random specks in the background? Yeah, those are supposed to be stars. I didn't do them very well.
Thanks for the comment! <3

If it makes you feel any better, they look like stars when they're not zoomed in. :S
