Description OK here it is! I finished up the pencils yesterday, then scanned it today and cleaned it up in PSP. I've had a number of requests from people at school who have seen me working on this one for prints. If there is some interest here also, I will go ahead and get off my butt and actually subscribe so I can get DevArt to make prints for me.

I think this one probably clocked in at about 15 or 16 hours. Whew!

Oh yeah, those of you who faved the WIPs of this, I'm going to go ahead and take those down, so I can just have the final version up here. Just so you know.

Wow, beautiful work with this! The woman seems to be the main focus of this, but the background is just as eye-catching. What I wouldn't give to have that view in my backyard ! Very inspirational design and details. Gotta fave this...

This is an amazing piece of pencil work. All those hours you put into this most definitely paid off. I see the stone lanturn turned out quite nice as well. I cannot complain about this, and if there were any mistakes, to heck with them. A stupendous, superb job.

Yeah, kinko's is cheap, but you also get what you pay for. I'm kinda picky about my reproduction quality. And besides, the digital version is much crisper than my original, so I'd rather be making prints of the digital file. The other thing that I'm interested in is being able to sell to people all over the place, not just making up some copies for my friends. I think either way though, I'd probably end up making about the same amount, counting up what I could charge vs reproduction costs.

Well, it's not so much that kinko's is "no good" It's just that, if you are getting the $1 copies (this is for your color work right?) you are creating those on a color copier on plain paper. You will probably notice some slight color shifts, especially with pale colors and fleshtones, and your blacks will not be true black (they will be sort of a deep matte charcoal. Although color copying has come a long way over what it was 5 or 6 years ago, it does not match in quality direct printing. Also, if you just copy on plain paper, your prints will not necessarily have the finish you want, nor will they be archival quality, meaning that they will discolor after a period of time, especially if they are exposed to varying lighting and humidity conditions. If you buy good archival quality paper and print out your work on kinkos super-duper printers, you will duplicate the quality that Deviant Art will give you, but you will be paying at least as much per print as the base price they show here. So it sort of ends up as six of one half dozen of the other. The advantage I see for me is that the print service here allows me to reach a much wider market--and I don't have to do the processing on my end. I think if you just want to make some copies for your friends, getting the $1 kinkos copy is fine. But if you want to sell a good quality artwork, you will need to spend more than a dollar.
