Description
My guess is that this is the last WIP, unless I submit some more in scraps. I know I should really submit this too to scraps, but I really want (and need) critique. This is by far the largest project and picture I've ever worked on. I thought "The Deepest Sorrow" was long, but that was only a week and it didn't really slow down the computer all that much. This one is by now 215 mb, so it is... kinda big, only in size.

So, now all elemets are added and "only" refinement is left. I am thinking of adding just a little bit more canvas to the bottom, just to get more mountain into the picture. The composition feels much better now than it did before. I am thinking of adding the clouds near the moon a bit more solid than the others just to get some balance in the picture.

All elements of Ayamarian magic is in the picture now; the basic forms for magic comes from the earth itself, that is why her dress slowly turns into the mountain itself. The second element is the human - it is connected with the earth power, and is just as fundamental - if the human itself doesn't have magic inside him/herself, he can't use any other form for magic. There is a magic power coming from humans, from their soul, so to speak. The third, and highest, source of magic, is the magic moon which Rayhin holds in her hands (she is, after all, the goddess for magic and the one who created all this). It is a moon that can only be seen by those having a share of its power. But only a few can use its power to its full extent. Together, these three sources form Ayamar's magic, and combine in a jumble of different forms of magic. Dark Magic, Black Magic, Moon magic, White magic, Healer's magic... To mention a few. So here are all elements of that magic, together forming the one who made them. And the normal moon, just because I thought it would look good.

I haven't forgotten the light from the large moon, I just haven't added it yet. I am also struggling with the colour of the dress - it needs to be RED! But I can't change any of the light sources now, so I'll just have to find a way to work around it.
