she's such a babe! oh my god! I love her swimsuit though, I'd love to have one! I also beleive that seeing your designs for real would be amazing! I cross my fingers that someday someone would cosplay as any of your wonderful characters

I kinda want this swimsuit now too to be honest The one I got was basic black but tailored in a neat way. Also ah man someone cosplaying as these crazy colors would be great! There were a few questions some months back about making one or two outfits form some arts. I wonder if the askers were successful. It would be neat to see for sure o:

oh so sweet I only have a sports swimsuit but it's the one I got after years of not going to the pool so I'm satisfied  
I hope SAnta would be good to you too you deserve so much love my dear  

I hope so! it's so visually interesting!  In all honesty, I am in such a bad financial situation right now but when things will get better and all, I would love to think with you, of a good outfit for Asma. something with a strong African vibe (like I sometimes am trying to give her). vibrant colours, and a great theme. something that could remind people of her regalness, her godhood but also celebrate her difference, nurturing side and hope.  so it's still at the back of my head and hopefully would be able to reach out to you to make it happen :3 hopefully sooner than later

Yeah.. I thought where I lived was pretty safe but that's a wake up to not be so relaxed and trusting everywhere DX I have been really too lax
But thanks! Actually struggled with the colors on this one.. so much back and forth lol

I love this, for me this time of year i see very few pictures of summer (it's always the traditional white Christmas) and because I'm in Australia it always seemed backwards that all I get bombarded with in summer is winter things when it is really about the surf, sand and sun I love your art a lot, you've really honed your techniques and got your shading and blending down pat and it's always a pleasure to see your art!

GDBee In reply to meikahidenori [2015-12-20 22:54:47 +0000 UTC]

I know right! It must be tough south of the equator this year finding any relevant Winter things DX
Also thank you! That means a lot coming from you omg Personally I don't think I'm "there" yet when it comes to shading, but it's encouraging when a viewer sees improvement.

Aww! Poor stolen bathing suit At least it got a pretty tribute! I remember seeing the sketch of this. This may sound weird but I just LOVE the little dangly fish! And I love that they stayed in the final image and you colored them. They're such a cute little detail for the piece! Outside of the lil fishies I really like the colors you chose; the sky and water are both blue but still easily separated, and of course, all the lovely reflections in her hair give it fantastic depth and a hint of shine

GDBee In reply to TheButterfly [2015-12-21 15:07:00 +0000 UTC]

To be honest I would rather have the suit in this art than the one I bought; so colorful. Also thanks! The fish are there to break up the blue space to be honest I knew all that blue space would bother me without something there if I was to color this. Had studied some water/color reflections lately too and I hope this would make sense if she were actually knee deep in water I kinda guessed lol
