Description My newest artwork, this is based on a song I wrote called 'Like Oxygen'. It's a Christian-based song, and I was inspired to draw something to go with it. I wish I could post the lyrics to my song for you to see, but I want to keep it private ^^

this must have taken me at least 8 hours to do on photoshop, using mostly a mouse. The hair, the lace, and underwater bg took me the most to do.
I would really appreciate it if you would fullview, you can see the detail I put into it, and the quality is better :3

Edit: Wow, thanks SO much guys for all of the faves, it means a lot that something that came from what I was feeling at the moment turned out to be pleasing to other people x3
I touched up just a couple of minor things and resubmitted this deviation, just to let you know ^^ I want my picture to be worth the faves it has =]

Yayster [2008-03-08 19:53:44 +0000 UTC]

This isn't really my sort of thing but I still like what you have done here ^_^ It's very glowy and I like the feel of her being underwater and the sun catching in her hair.

As for crit, I think her chest looks a little awkward as one breast seems to be pointed and the other one rounded, which is a little confusing Also, her ear might be a little small - unless this is specific to the character

I adore the patterns on her though, they're gorgeous!!

About the chest part, they are at different angles, so obviously both of them would not be pointed. (freaking out at weird subject xD) But I'll take note of your critique, I might end up doing another redo. ^^

If you ask me the clothing is quite tight, as in it is as if she is wearing nothing at all really. I would suggest adjusting that. Just to let you know.
