Description -Hi! Sorry about the first time I submitted this one... the mac screwed up the submission and turned it all pixely. So, I re-scanned it and submitted it over. (no duh.) It's not as pretty as the last one but enjoy anyway! On with the original description...

Inspired by =luciole and ~Haine-Otomiya ... (gets shot by both of them) and the flowers were based off fake flowers on a hat I wore in this photo of me at a friend's birthday when I was about 7 or 8.

Hi everyone!! XDD I just got back from my 2-week Tool Time session at camp... and I'm using my aunt's mac right now. ^^ I haven't done a ton of art... just some. ^_^ I had fun. I got back on Friday and I'm gonna be going back tomorrow and coming back on August 6th I think. I'm gonna be with 12th graders... (shudders)

Anyway... I did this a few days before I left for VT. Originally it didn't have wings or anything, but today and yesterday I added more onto it. I used a lot of white ink, especially to cover up mistakes I made. I used my watercolor pencils here for the 3rd time (which is a reason why it's a painting) so go easy on the crits... and some marker for the hair and dark areas of the wings, and I outlind it with gold marker so the original is shiney. ^_^ Too bad noone of you can see it!!! (evil laugh) lol, sorry. This was all pencil-first except for the wings. Once again I screwed up on the arms/hands, so my foreshortening=crap.

Well, before I spiced it up it looked really boring. But I got several comments on this one such as "Wow, I love the colors!" and one like "Man, her boobs are HUGE!" DX Are they really that big? -_-; I didn't think so... but at the same time I got huge wads of publicity on both of my portfolios while I was gone. It got a little annoying but somehow I dealt with it. I gave everyone my dA url so the "fans" wouldn't get anxious. -_-; #2. So, enjoy!! ttyl!

MATERIALS USED: Micron 05 brown inking pen, Faber Castell watercolor pencils, watercolor brush pens, white calligraphy ink, fine-pointed DecoColor Gold opaque paint marker, all on copy paper which became extremely thin as a result of how much water was added to the pencil. After it was scanned I edited it a bit wuth Photoshop CS2.

TIME TAKEN: About 2 hours ish. In other words; ages...

PS: The title means "beautiful impatients"... not sure if I said it right, but whatever.

Great image. My only critique would be that the closed eye seems a little too low anatomy-wise.

It's a beautiful, beautiful work, you just need to take care with the anime/manga style proportions: the mouth is usually pretty close to the nose, especially in case of a girl; shoulders and arms lines are too straight, remember bones and muscles do show even when the character is perfectly slim. (one of those manikins used in traditional art classes can help you a lot with anatomy)
I know not all anime/manga artist follow these rules by the book, but trust me, it's good to try them for a while even if you have already defined this way of drawing as your personal style.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Ms-Know-It-All ^.^ Those hints I gave you are the ones I received from my Art teacher not so long ago. Just wanted to share them with you. I'm no pro artist (maybe one day, when my hair turns gray and I finally manage to draw decently, hehe)

Big isn't bad. As long as they fit, which they do, that's what matters. Overall, this is a great picture. It's colored very well. I really like those flowers.

Ooo, gorgeous <3 The watercolor pencils look great, I like how you've done the gradation of colors on her arms and chest. (and no, it doesn't look too big ) Her hair is really pretty and shiny too.
