Oh wow, nicely done. I cant use tradional media to save my life XD. I like her hair a lot and the headdress thing is really awesome. Her design is totally cool, btw.

I cannot use any type of digital coloring, so I guess we're even...go figure. Thanks for the comment though!

First off, I want to thank you so much for all the wonderful comments you've left for me! Second, I want to say that I love your style and use of color! Your 'playing around' with clothing has turned out a really beautiful costume in this piece. :)

I especially like the way you've colored her bodice--it looks almost iridescent. And the folds in her skirt are shaded very well. A point of critique: her arms are a bit too short. Typically, the fingertips should stop at about mid-thigh. Hers are stoping just below her hips.

I love the shine in her hair-you did an excellent job with that. :)

Hee hee...I tend to not pay attention to where the hands fall because I hate drawing hands so much >_< but thanks for the critism, seeing as I get hardly any.

Oooooo i like this picture! I like the use of blues and greens, they mix wel too! =D I the alcohol blending is a good idea, but i think the use of marker then with watercolour might've made it a bit overdone? I liked how you used colour pencils in your previous ones =D

But then again, this picture DOES have richer colour~ I like the shine on her hair too! =) Just a little tip: If you like her eyes to be looking elsewhere, it might make it more obvious if you added some white areas on both sides to emphasize? It shows the direction of the eyes more clearly =) Just thought this might help =D

P.S. Thanks for all of your comments! X3 you're the only one who seem to appreciate my art! lol Thanks! Cheers =D

I only use marker to darken some areas and the water color in the background. But I do seem to forget the white of the eyes a lot....oops. Guess I'll to pay more attention next time >_< Thanks though!
