Description
"Wings aren't what you need, you need me."
. . . ______________________________________________________________________________________ . . .
Can I just say that I'm actually happy with how this one turned out? I finally had some time and ideas floating around and *bam* this was the result. My half of an art trade with Nicole-Studios . This is her gorgeous girl, Azaneen. I just love glowy things hehe. I hope you like it and that I portrayed her correctly! Hopefully the markings and such are all right. *shhhh* I should be sleeping, but I couldn't resist working on this.

This is gorgeous! The colours compliment each other perfectly! The glow of the horn and the butterfly are simply stunning, the textures are wonderful. The expression on her face is very expressive. I love how this was shaded and how the hues of the glow compliment the shades and shadows, the feeling I got from this personally was sort of a "protector" vibe. "I'm always here even though you can't see me, I'll protect you" and the Unicorn's expression and body language say just that! An unseen guiding light, a light to guide one through tough times, sadness, and pain.

Thank you so much for all the kind words.
It really means a lot to me.
Now that you mention it, I'm getting the same vibe,
I guess I was unconsciously thinking about that while
making this XD

Someday I will also redo my half of our trade because it certainly does not suit up to what I should owe you for your wonderful work on Azaneen.

I was afraid I got the coloring/markings wrong.
It said black and gold in the description, so I went with that XD.
I can't wait to see it!!

It is even more beautiful the second and third and fourth time I look at it.
I think I've drooled all over myself, please excuse me while I clean this up lol!!!
Her coloring and markings are ABSOLUTELY perfect. I can't even describe how much this image portrays her correctly and not just correctly but I can FEEL her personality leaping through this image.
The way you made the gold chain thingy wrap around her horn as well is perfection.
THOSE EYES.
Just, ermehgerd.
