I swear to god I saw this bitch under the influence of mushrooms. Needless to say, it was a rather bad trip. (This is before knowing about her.)

WONDERFUL! Nice one! I like the cold colors.
Only a question: If she is the queen of mushrooms, where are they? I mean, shouldn't be some of them on her body? Or in the pic?

My ex-girlfriend turned into one of these. Venomous & vindictive. You did a great job depicting her. nice.

Absolutely beautifully done. The black smokey effect rising off her and and light shining through the clouds are wonderful touches.

Very nice work. I especially like the way that the colour palette changes from purples to greens as you move down the piece. Good job!

Looks great. I must say that the colors took this one to another level. Higher then it allready was before.

I agree. The colors make the piece. I've worked with Kevin Yan on a bunch of illos and I've come to discover that the less I do, the better he is He really took the simple lineart and ran with it.

I think this picture is far superior to the picture of her in Fiendish Codex I.

You've never heard of the Lady of Fungus before this?
You've never read the adventure "Temple of Elemental Evil"?

LOL..No...I'm sorry heh. It's a shame I know. I was always a comic guy. It's wrong. But it's true The only thing I know about D&D is what I read in the descriptions for the illos I was working on. I'll understand if you hate me now LOL

What's to hate?
You should have seen the lousy drawing of her in Temple of Elemental Evil...
She looked like an obese reject from the movie Troll.
