Description The younger sister of UNT. Aianeth.
She is suppose to be outside of the wall of the city, beyond the computers and networks that bind people to it. Wandering through meadows and gleans, with the knowledge of creation in her DNA.

We are supposed to be composed of the same materials that wander through space. Far flung planets and stars all coming together and blended into you. Me. All of us. How mind shattering and humbling it is to know?

this is realllyyyyyyyyyy very pretty and i think is a greater improvement from your previous works. I could compare you to other people the idea of perfection that it appears to me that other people have a bout art, but there's no point in doing that because we;re going off your baseline and learning curve.

in my studies in the medical field, goals are made to optimize the situation of a patient in recognition of their potential. Every patient has their own baseline and of course there are "norms" or standards which are used as guidelines based off physiologic responses (like predetermined values for drops or increases in potassium levels and such).

You have your own baseline and learning curve. Compared to your previous works, I'd say you're getting better with anatomy and shading. Even though the amount of space from which the nose protrudes from the bridge of the nose is a little too short, it's evened out by other lines in the anatomy.

It reminds me of graphic design, how the arrangement of certain things in a space can balance each other out. Like the rule of thirds I learned when shooting film. One third of the picture has a focus on an object and the other 2 thirds draw away from it/balance it out with "empty space". I feel like you were able to do this pretty well with this picture. The focus to me is the eye and side profile, the contour of the mouth and nose.

You added lighting in different places and it contrasts well with the depth of the darker colors. You added light to the neck and the person's right shoulder...the separation and contrast makes it more..realistic...rather...really i think i mean it just add's depth...and feeling to it...it's not flat..

I really like how the bangs in the front flow down and outwards...really nicely done loops and waves. the coloring and shading is also very soft, makes me feel like i want to pet it. The downward angle of the face towards our left corner adds this sense of motion to the picture and I really love how you colored the face. The highlighting on the cheek and how it seems like a gradient gives me this ethereal/surreal feeling that i find alot in my dreams with weird/uncommon lighting. Followed correcvtly or not based on what is observed in real life, i don't really care for it... I'm only concerned by how things look and make me feel regardless of they follow those trends. Mistake or not. But in mistakes...you learn so much.

I really love the flow of the hair thought...and how the stars sprinkle her skin.
The cloud of light on her left shoulder, i think should not have expanded beyong her body. You have an area of light that blens into the area of darkness and other purple highlights that you used for the universe behind her. I think if that was erase and just confined to her shoulder, it'd provide a greater sense of contrast and would make it seem like the light is comming from her skin and not from a "proper" light source somewhere else..

but then again, you did say she was made up of stars and wanted her to mirror the colors of the cosmos..so that's pretty crazy cool.

I really love the trail of little planets on her cheeeek. HAHAHA i bet making those dots wasnt easy. I make a lot of them, they're very time consuming.

this is better than all your other works. but i wonder what really inspired u to make this and color it this way.

I wanted to say something about your comment about creation and knowledge in that dna, but im too lazy.

and this comment prob would have been a lot more serious, in depth, and less vague if i wasnt feeling so tired and lazy. but that's being fixed with something else and itll prob take time.

but back on pointtt..

this is really greattt, your best yet.
