Artist's Comments

's character Venus, from "Death on Lethargic Wings." The pose is just sort of random; I got bored with standing poses and thought this'd be fun. And then she looked sort of odd, just lying there in space, so I put a beach in for the background. Yeah, I'm ready for summer. Done completely without pen or regular-pencil outlining - and it actually looks good! :D I think her eyes are my favorite part of this.

Colored pencil and one of those cheap sketchbooks that I have so many of... I swear I've never bought one of those - they're terrible for markers or ink - so where do they all come from?

May death come on swift wings? ...We don't have any swift wings. May death come on lethargic wings!

HOLY FRIJOLES!!!! You drew my picture for me!!! *hugs to death* IT'S SO AMAZING!!!

*ahem*

It kind of looks like you've developed a new style... it's so different from what I remember... But in a good way. It's... dare I say... realistic?! And jeez, you're so good at colored pencils. You r0xx0rz... Her eyes are really cool, but I luffs her hair... So pretty.... Ooooooh.... *sparkle*

Glad you like it so much. :D

I'm not really sure where the new style came from... I haven't used colored pencils in a reeeeally long time, and I think I've learned a lot about shading since then, so that's why it looks so different. And realisitic-ness is easier with colored pencils than with markers, it seems.

Hah, you owe me my picture now. :D *pokes you*

What a fun pose and neat perspective! I love the way you colored it too! It's good to see stuff from you again!
