Description blahhh!!! that's the only thing I can say my comp isn't working properly.. there's a ram problem and it randomly does really screwy things and won't generally do much...I tried in vain to use photoshop to color in the line art I drew for 's contest but omg it did not work..

I ended up going with an overly simple cel style coloring job on it which I really didn't want to do.. but I couldn't get the goddamn program to stay open long enough to do anything more with it

I'm very disappointed with this but I had already done the line art and today is the deadline for submissions to for the contest so

Anyway, comments and crit welcome.. plz don't be too harsh because I do know there are *lots* of problems with this already Sorry about the speddy bg but it was all I could get in before the comp went screwy lol... (like it litterally took me 15 minutes to get the damn picture to resize that's how messed up my comp is lol) In the end, I took a screen cap of what I had already done, cropped it and saved it in another prog as a jpeg

Anywayzzzz... I WILL do this again when I gets mah comp fixed up...

The character is Hikari Kaiya, the Earth Jewel user from 's Silver Visions project. For the contest you were supposed to draw one of the jewel users doing there thing.. so she's supposed to be casting a spell type thing.. hence all the goofy looking swirly stuff.. however being a sped like I often am, I wasn't thinking earth and I was thinking air or something probably because her outfit is all blue (I equate blue with air/water and green/brown with earth doh). ooopsie.. so the grass was an after thought lol

Ack it's late and I must sleep

This is still a good pic ne
Though you said you did a simple cel shading, It's still looks quite nice.

:3 the swirling magic she's casting looks cool too
And her eyes are cute

My only little crits is that her eyes seems they doesn't have the same focus... and yeah... I think it might looks better if she's focus on her magic

The perspective on this is wonderful, though you might want to make the picture behind the "waves" to be wavy as well so it looks more real. I love how you did the wave in this, it looks very accurate indeed. Not bad...this is one of your simple pictures, but the effects can lead other wise.

O.O'.

THE SWIRRRRRRLEYNESS! ^_^' Sorry. I'm a big fan of weird/magic stuff in pictures. I love the 3D effect. I only have 2 crits:

1.) Her stockings. They don't seem to turn or round with the curve of her leg.
2.) She needs highlights and a few more shadows.

Beautiful pic all around, though! Keep it up!
