Description Had this idea for a while now... Unfortunatly it didn't come out the way I wanted T___T

Anyway, If you can't tell, it's suppose to be my character slowly sinking underwater while wings suddenly burst.

It's bleh I know lol! Quite plain, and her head is too big. I had alot of trouble trying to make it look like she's underwater. *ran all over the house looking for referance lol!*

Originally inspired by a part song called "Revolution" from this Taiwanese band called "F.I.R." *XD Love their songs! The vocalist of the band has such a nice voice

Character (C)

EDIT: (her name is Trinity in case you dunno lol because some people have asked) And I want to mention that another reason why I don't like this picture is because there's nothing in it that strikes my attention T___T lol!...oh well... I'll just have to keep trying

Great angle, great colouring and generally speaking a great idea. Such a nice, calm piece despite it being called Drowning

I've always thought that drowning elegantly would be a beautiful moment. You've really captured that. I love it.

How in Sam Hell did you make look so... real. Like you snatched it out of a TV show? How do you draw anime like that!? I've been trying to master that technique for the past year! I haven't even grasped the basics yet!

very nice. i like the wings and light, especially, but as sakurah mentioned, the bubbles could use a bit work.
also the hair would be more flowing in the water.
tip: for underwater, there is often a watery pattern, sorta like a net, on smooth surfaces like skin and clothes. it's not necessary, but doing that, paying specail detail to the way light hits the curves and bends (make it look 3D) would make it really really good.

Ahh... a rather peaceful drowning... usually the face would be distorted if she was in pain.
I think this looks really good.

Nano-Tsuji [2005-02-20 21:57:35 +0000 UTC]

The coloring and overall composition is like amazing and everything, but I do have one problem:

People who are drowning don't look so calm like that..... unless they're like dead O_o That, of course, has nothing to do with the quality of the picture, but I thought I'd offer my two cents.

forever-here [2005-02-20 00:13:33 +0000 UTC]

did you do the wings as another layer or use the eraser and also like on your hair how do you get the lines so strait? Great job on your piece!

wow you choose a hard pose to draw her in i must agree that her head is a little bit to big but i really love your drawing. she really is drowning and i love the wings who look so transparent yet its really good work you should be proud of it even if its not the result you were looking for i think you came pretty close to it.
lovely details and shading is gorgeous i love the water aswell great work.
anya,sam

I think it's as very pretty piece of work. absolutely lovely.

but It took me a while to make the connection between the transparent feathers and wings. maybe you could have tried a more direct view of Trinity's back, just to clarify?

I don't think the head is too big. WHen you're doing perspectives where the head is closer, the head needs to be big, or it looks like it's in 2-D
