Description Here is my final finished piece of Dark Mousy. This one will be added to the 'angel' section of my 100 theme challenge, as well as the 'dnangel section.'

This piece is a bit different from my previous submissions. It's a bit smoother and looks a little better in terms of anatomy and such. I used the sharpen tool quite a bit, to make it stand out more. I also got some new texture brushes for the hair, wings and clothes. The hair looks a little more realistic now.

This piece is SEMI-realism, not anime or anything of the sort. The character is from an anime, but the picture is not stylized as such. Next, I will start working on some concept designs for something called, "Shinigami." 'Dark Mousy' was not designed to be an overall stunning piece, it was just supposed to help me with my coloring. Hopefully I can come up with a better pose, instead of just a portrait. Then again, this was drawn in science class and I didn't have any references or anything.

Why no background? Because of a couple reasons, I was lazy and two, it would be too much work for such a small piece and it would end up ruining it.

My first thought: what amazing hair! You did a great job with it. It's very detailed and with the highlights it looks even more realistic. I also like that you can imagne the hair structure, it looks smooth and clean. Compared to the hair the faces looks kinda rude. The shading isn't as good as it could be and I don't like the bored facial expression. But well, that's my personal opinion.

This is amazing! I love the texture and how the hair is done. Do you mind if I add it to my Young & Talented II feature?

The hair is really impressive! You could have worked a bit more on the face, though, then it would be perfect ^^

The nose looks fine to me But the eyes are a bit too high (and big), but that's probably because your roots are in anime art? ^^

Yeah, I started with anime. The sketch of this painting I did was originally in an anime style.

As I thought. You're planning to paint more realistic or do you want to keep that style?

I'm going to do more realistic stuff (well semi realism like final fantasy graphics) but then, hopefully after doing more realistic stuff, I can improve anatomy and develop my own style.

That's a good plan. By the way, I love the Final Fantasy semi-realism
