*fingers crossed DA doesn't screw up file*

For the last image of an OC age progression meme (of the protagonist of my comic-in-making), to be posted shortly.

Once the subject of ire and ridicule for insisting training in self defense (having the bodily frame akin to a twig) and having nothing else to lose, Ariana chooses to start from the very beginning.

Years later after enduring lots of harsh weather, beatings, bruising and a couple of near death experiences* the Gwendaelis heiress re-emerges, asserting the authority of her own identity proving to be a persistent and formidable opponent intent on offering an alternative future to imperial rule.

If you havn't heard from me in forever, this is why!!! I worked until 4:30 am last night and continued for hours today just to get the damn thing finished since its been plaguing me for over a month >_>

Gosh, this is amazing, I absolutely in love with the details and I also love the coloring technique, it suited the whole mood for this picture!
Good job!

I really love the piece, and the title is awesome; it gives it a really badass feel with the expression on her face.

It's really awesome. I think your coloring style is uniqe, and your pictures are always interesting to look at because of the (to me) challenging/difficult angles and perspectives.

I know how it is when you want to finish something really badly so it keeps you from eating/sleeping XD

Again, great work

Thanks Moon!

Using the textured brushes is a nice twist, I tried them quite a long time ago but I have a better understanding of how to apply them now(though still have a ways to improve).

It's important to keep learning and push yourself, but there are just some days where I get so impatient with myself (something taking too long to figure out/get right) that I want to throw my monitor at the window XD

Frustrating isn't it! There's only so much time you can give to one thing before you have to move on, I was getting sick of opening it every time I turned the computer on so I just wanted to keep pushing through over weekend until it was done. I felt so relaxed yesterday! I might go back and add detailing of the outfit later but...maybe not.

How are your studies going?

*Moontoon Nov 9, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

They're going good. The internships will start in about 2 weeks and I'm kind of nervous about that, I guess :S
