Description The Moon Princess emerges from her slumber,
Sweet is the taste of night air,
A gold goddess amongst the clouds,
Her beauty can't be compared.

Hair adorned with drops of Jupiter,
Skin the colour of the Milky Way,
With wings made from silvery stars,
And lips as cold as the moon itself.

She steps onto the Cosmic Belt,
Angels worship at her feet,
For this is an occassion, it is
How the moon princess's birth came to be.


I have come to the conclusion that I cannot be poetic...

Did this a few days ago..I really liked it at first..but now...
it looks soo demented! The colours are totally wrong! Gwarh! Especially the background..grrr...I'm soo anoyed! I wanted to use colours different from a generic 'moonlight' scene(e.g. blue, silver, purple)..but its turned out baaaddd...

It looks soo weird...some girls head just popping out of no where! Bleh..

The only good thing about this piece is that I worked much harder than usual to create tone and shade..dont think I accomplished that but oh well...I cant be bothered anymore..

FULL VIEW PLEASE!! (in order to see how bad it is..>.>

Just simply love your style of drawing and color style. It just struck me with more inspiration. Do you follow any particular style or what? o.o

Aww! Thank you! You're so kind! Well, I've tried drawing more shonen-styled art but it never worked for me. But I think drawing more girly girl, cutesy or elegant stuff is more suited to me!

I'm only telling the truth, I see you used cloud and star brushes? >_> Yes it's more suiting for you. I like those stuff too.

I created the cloud and star brushes myself! None of that pre-made stuff..it looks too cheap!

wow, awesome. Really, the bg's really great. The cg's nice too. But t would be better, if you make the character glow. If you use Adobe Photoshop 7, try duplicatng the cg layer, put in gaussian blurr to the bottom layer, and make the upper layer overlay. THat's what I do usually to make it more dramatic.

I think itΒ΄s beautifull
And the poem is really really nice
And I write poems too so I know a bit about it ^^"
I think the background is very nice and well done
And what do you mean with a girlΒ΄s head peeping out of nowhere? In my universe pic itΒ΄s the same ._." I donΒ΄t think it is a bad thing..
Hum I think the face needs a bit more contrast and shading or just put some darker tone on her eyelids, thereΒ΄s something missing
And the rigthest drop of jupiter looks misplaced and too big, maybe you can move it a bit away from the moon, just an idea
For me her hair ornaments are absolutely beautifull but they look very earthy, especially the red roses, maybe you can put something in like: She has some earthy blood in her or something like that, which shows that she is related to the earth.
I hope this doesnΒ΄t come over critical D: I didnΒ΄t wanted to critique in a bad way!
I really like it and wanted to help
Oh and I think itΒ΄s absoluetly something different from your usual pictures which are lovely too!
Her face looks completely different!
