Very beautiful work I must say.

Sorry for my lack of commenting lately. I've been busy >_<

But as far as I can tell, for not doing anything within the last couple of years with them, you have a knack with them. Puts my skill with the pencils to shame I have to admit.

Some placs do seem to have a little bit of a "scratchy" quality to it though, at least in my opinion. Namely on the wooden parts of the beam, more noticibly on the underside of the beam she's on. But its quickly trounced upon by the fact of how you've added layering effects with the coloured pencils, and how now Im going to have to emulate that when I get a chance to practice again.

Good, excellent work.

Thank you. Mm...I'm afraid I kind of half-assed the background, since I didn't want to wear down my roommate's pencils too much. XD

My friend =mistressofspam has a tutorial on colored pencils you might find useful.

Even half-assed you shown remarkable talent for it that puts me to shame. But I can understand on not wanting to wear down the tools that's mostly my problem as Im too poor to afford new tools.

And thanks for the tip! Im gonna go head over to your friends page and find this tutorial and thank her properly.

I love them too. And never had to pay for a box. My first set my mom gave me, my second my art teacher gave me, and this set I stole...er...borrowed from my roommate.

Holy crap, for not using color pencils in two years, you have skills on you. I really love the pose on the character and the wings, too~ Excellent work, Rae!

Oh waaoooww D: Sei this is great, especially for the first time in two years using coloured pencils!

I totally dig the tail and how it flows. And and. D: The texture of the skin on the wings is so perfect - I quite like it. That and the whole mixture of colours you used works so nicely together.
