After several hundred attempts, I think I'm finally grasping how to draw hourglasses. Woohoo!
Anyways this is the lovely Solar Queen, taking part in some escapades inspired by dreams I had several years ago. This piece is 1 of 4 detailed shots that will be used in my BANG BANG meme, which is coming soon!

Wow love the lighting and the unique way you did the highlighting!

Hello! I'm from ProjectComment!
I was drawn to this piece because of the lighting and interesting shading. I think this shading looks really nice on the hair and wings and helps to create movement. However, everything being shaded/highlighted the exact same way makes everything look like it's made out of the same material. Texture could also be added to different elements of the image to add variation as well. For example; clothing would have more texture and be less shiny, could add more shine to hair, skin could have a little bit of highlight in certain areas.
The wings are drawn really well. There's movement in the lines and they make the image more dynamic and interesting.
The anatomy is a little weird. Her hand closest to us looks like it's bent too far up. If you try to bend your own hand that way you can see it's very hard to do. A crease would not be created and the line from your arm to your pinky finger is pretty straight and not really bent at all. I'm also not too sure what her legs are doing. To me, it looks like we're seeing her from behind on her lower half and then a front angle on her top half.
I feel like the background could have been a darker color to match how dark the shading gets towards the corners of the image. And I feel like this is more of a personal preference, but I wish the color on the hourglass was a different color than whatever is inside the hourglass. I feel like if the hourglass were a darker color the contents inside would pop more.
I also wish her lips had more color, as they are now they look kinda dull; and she has such a pretty smile 8)

Thank you for your kind words and critique!
I have been hearing that I should vary up the shading, but I'm glad you gave me specific pointers on how I can create said variation.
As for the anatomy, I definitely agree, I'm not very proud of this piece because of it, and the arms/hands definitely look unnatural. I hadn't noticed the issue with her legs though, and that us another big flaw haha.
The hourglass is meant to be all orange because the color depends on the character/story, but I'll try out darker shades for the glass and base in the future
And I've actually been working on ways to color the lips of my characters without making it look weird, but that's still very much in progress
Once again thank you for your comment, and I hope you have a good day!

Thank you so much for the critique, I hadn't noticed much of what you mentioned! Interesting point about shading the skin, I'll try to play around with that in my next piece!
And I hadn't draw anything in this angle before, which is why it looks so odd, but thanks to you I'll do better next time! And while I like drawing the eyelashes large and bulky in some cases, they definitely don't look good here- I can see that now
Once again thank you for your critique and your kind words, have a nice day!

So, is it possible that she can control time as well? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're close, but it's a bit more complicated then that! She can access and change anyone's memories through their souls, which are represented by different time pieces. If she changes the memories of everyone involved in an event, she can actually erase an entire event from ever happening! She can also add memories, changing the past however she likes. (Luckily she's a good guy)

With such powers like that, she could almost alter entire lives and maybe her own. 🤔 I have to wonder if anyone would want to take advantage of that power she has like change something for their own good or just destroy something that may alter the present for good.

Oh that definitely happens! One specific character suffers from a type of selective amnesia, so he tries multiple times to manipulate her into helping him figure out his origin and purpose. Another character also ends up taking a weakened form of her ability and uses it to brainwash people

Such is the danger of traveling back in time and changing it in ways that is both good and terribly bad at the same time!

Ooh that would be super cool! I'm a big fan of hourglasses and I think there really needs to be more use of them in stories! I had my own idea for father time, by he exists in an alternate universe. These universes are differentiated by which timepiece the characters have to represent their hearts, and he exists in the sundial one. I thought it would be a fun idea to give a character wearing a Spanish style sombrero that was actually a sundial! I liked it so much I made him one of the most important characters in the sundial universe and named him Father Time. He has a child Daughter Time with Mother Earth and they adopt a boy they call Brother Moon (Who is actually the sundial's version of the Lunar King!)

Wow!

Oh really? I'd never even heard of that! That's basically what it is haha, and even been jumping around developing the different timelines whenever I'm struck with inspiration for them. The sundial timeline was actually becoming one of the more lackluster ones by comparison, so this might actually be just what I needed, I'll definitely look into it!

Wow, that's super cool! I'd love to see how he turns out when you've completed decided to implement all of that, sounds very fantastical!
