Description
Or.. should it be Spring Slumbers, in honor of the Autumn?
This was my project this summer, didnt have much time to draw, sadly.. And now school is starting, so wanted it uploaded! Its... not really finished... I'll make little changes and upload newer versions when I have the time... Some things in anatomy is harder to fix, or mayby I just looked to much at the pic, so it seems off somehow? I did used reference photo for her body though ^^I need to practice speed painting this autumn XD

AH-HAH!!! I've finally figured it out, those are two little RODENT-TYPE-THINGIES hiding in her hair, there! *Snickers* Oi, I think the reason why her body looks odd is because her chest looks so masculine. I don't mean the breasts, I mean the width of the shoulders and ribcage. Also, the waist looks a bit low. Maybe if that waist-line was widened out a bit it would look better? There's also a part near the crotch where her right leg goes up, it looks like her leg has a dent in it. So it looks like the crotch is longer (like a man's) instead of a woman's.
With the clothes on her it's hard to see the angle of the body, too. (The clothes look plastic- you should use softer shading to make them look like fabric.
Uhm, that's all I could think of. The picture overall looks great! And I love the snakey~ That little guy is my favorite!

This is way to awesome and beautiful for words
you have evolved SO much from when I first started watching you. The colors, the fluidity , the pose, the details, the lighting... everything is screaming "WOW!"
You truly outdid yourself with this one!!

A really amazing piece to look at.
Once again, your knack for detail shows through and does an incredible job. Every little part of the picture I look at has something interesting to see, it seems. I can't imagine how long this must have taken to make.
I like the concept of the piece too, with the personification of Spring sleeping away until her time comes again. Nice touch with the various little animals sharing the space with her, keeping close to her probably warm aura.
The colors are wonderful and very vibrant, especially with how you've made Spring stand out from the darker/cooler looking plant life around her. The colors definitely feel like, and remind me, of when springtime comes around. Her mask and hair off set the rest of her greenish look nicely, and I must say I enjoy the rich coloring on the snake.
Once again, incredible piece.

I don't think 50 hours is much, compared to the level of detail

is just beautiful! o//o!
I don't know what are you talking about when you say "it's not finished", it looks perfect!
I just can't tell you what I like the most of it! The hair looks so fluid, and brilliant, and the snake and bunnies (and hedgehog and frog) look so alive and natural!
But the most impresive is the scene itself... How much patience do you have?!
I envy soo much your coloring skills! >//I've missed your work! You're awesome! ^^

Heh sometimes I think I have too much patience.. I would like to get more uploaded here
There's some small things here and there, like an uncoloured flower and missing shadows, but they are hard to see if you dont know where to look 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But that's a good thing here
Patience can transform a sketch into a beautiful piece of art ^^
And I think I just find an un-shaded flower, but I can't see anything else o.ò...
And Sure!
When you put so much heart and effort in your work, is always nice to get a comment when people can actually tell you what they like of it ^^
You deserve a lot more attention! You're really talented!
