Artist's Comments

"Um, sure, whatever you say."

...is what her expression seems to be saying. o__O

I really like this painting. I love the skin, and I know I have a lot to work on with hair, but it's really not bad! Unfortunately, my scanner is too small to accomodate the whole image (hence the "cut off" feeling there at the bottom and the darker shadow) and Photoshop, now tag-teaming with my scanner, has made a hobby of destroying the colors of anything I save in it (and the picture was too big to transfer into paint). Basically: I HATE YOU TOO, PROGRAMS. D<

The colors in real life look less brown and more bright... pinkish, orangey, even. Man~ If I can borrow my sister's digital camera, then I'll be sure to re-post this image. A camera will probably do it more justice.

For , who critiques my art honostly, has an opinion and is not afraid to share it, and has very inspiring journals! I'd also like to consider her a friend. This is her character, Peony, for her contest ([link]) which is closed TOMORROW. Not tonight at midnight, but TOMORROW. *shoots self*

Also, sorry for the wrinkles~! I love to watercolor, but alas, I lack watercolor paper. If I get the job I applied for, then I can buy some with my pay check in, oh, two weeks~! Hooray~

...this is really quite nice in person... >>; *will pin it to wall somewhere* Oh, erm, nice if it's your thing, of course. I'm just a self-praising dork who needs to be KEEELED. Feel free to critique this all you want~

I promise to critique better tomorrow right now I think my eyes are bleeding and I desperately need to rest them for about 30 hours haha ;__;
:iconcruzle:
That's alright~ XD Get some rest! I need it, too... >>;
:iconmurasakimuraki:
Ooo! Very cute~!! :D
Pish! When I had watercolor paper it would still wrinkle! >__< AND, when I tried stretching the paper it wrinkled too!! Agh! That's why I hate watercolors sometimes!! I never got the wrinkles to go away! >:(

I firmly believe one of modern civilization's greatest inventions has been indoor plumbing. :toilet:
:iconrininski:
*tear* It's beautiful~ T^T I'm inlove with the skin details! You're a wonderful painter! ^__^ And the shading details you put in her hair is nice too~ :heart:
:iconj-cleo:
It is very nice. I like her freckles. They're cute. XD

And for programs, I'd never tell them anything bad like "I hate you" because then I just jinx myself and make it worse... say, to the point that they don't even work? X3;; I'd rather have a shoddy picture than no picture. lol.

Kazuo: Those... those're wiretaps! Uwaah! Those perves listened to me busting a solo on my meat flute last night!
Nobuto: F***, man. In my case it was a duet.
Toki: Uh, you guys are missing the point...

Oh noes~! X,D There seem to be less wrinkles with watercolor paper, though. I will love watercolor for a while yet~ I thought I was gonna die if I didn't touch them soon. XD And my friend showed me a few of her watercolors today, and I was hit by the urge to watercolor some more. Gahh~ I think I'm a fan. XD
:iconcruzle:
I'm not awesome at watercoloring!!! I've only done it a few times. As for watercolor brand... *picks up tube* Lesse... I just got this huge set at Costco, and in it were acrylics, oils, and watercolors. The brand name of the paints is "Art Studio". I don't use the standard colors, though... I always mix.

...AND OMFG THANKS FOR THE FAVE! *dead*
:iconcruzle:
Aww, thanks so much! x__x I LOVE coloring skin~ it's the first thing I do in CGs and the first thing I did in this painting! I had a lot of trouble with the hair... I kept making it darker and darker until I really didn't have much in the way of highlights. ^^; I'm gald you like this picture! Thank you for the fave~ <3

Freckles are a part of the character design. *nods* I almost forgot them in the end; I'm glad that hey seem to have come out okay! And... I CAN REINSTALL! >D *laughs maniacally*
