Description I had a crazy bee in my bonnet to redo old manips from when I was first learning and using things that weren't stock. The concept has evolved into a deeper story... but I think I like that.

Drawn to the tree, it shows her heart's true mate. But fate is cruel, because as a mortal man, he is beyond her reach. So she spends eternity there with the image of him, waiting.

Inspired by the lyrics of "Not Meant for Me" by Wayne Static of Static X

I'm trapped in this world
Lonely and fading
Heartbroke and waiting
For you to come

I love how fanasy-like she really looks and how he does seem much more mortal. It really gets the emotion acroos.

The hair compliments the green amazingly. :]

Love the detail. <3

Thank you. I was worried he might really seem out of place, but then again, I guess that's how it should be. I'm glad the emotion is so tangible - that's exactly what I was trying for.

Thanks! They are actually opposite each other on the colour wheel; my favourite complimentary pair. ^_^

Thank you again so much.

You're welcome. :]

It did for a moment,
but that only happens if one doesn't engage one's brain while viewing. XD


They are very nice together. :]

You're very welcome! <3

This is so beautiful and yet so sad. Poor little faerie. She needs to go find a witch who will make her into a big girl.

Aww, thank you. Yes, but witches like that always ask for contracts and the next thing you know she's stolen your voice and your prince.

Oh yeah, but but...love conquers all...at least in Disney films. I'd say Don Bluth, but someone always seems to die at some point in a Don Bluth movie.

HotaruThodt In reply to girl-withagun [2007-06-10 15:33:23 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I agree. I still prefer Don Bluth or Disney, except for the Land Before Time sequels.

Hey, the first Land Before Time was awesome. I still love it, but they really need to stop pulling sequels out of there asses. X_X

girl-withagun In reply to HotaruThodt [2007-06-14 00:03:36 +0000 UTC]

Yes, the first one was ... my obsession for a long time. The others though... yes, sequels suck. What's with dinosaur sequels that defy logic?

HotaruThodt In reply to girl-withagun [2007-06-14 00:17:09 +0000 UTC]

I had like three of the Pizza Hunt Puppets (I also had two Little Foots), for a long time. I think I still have them. And I was wondering that myself. The first movie almost implied that the world as Dinosaurs knew it ended and 'The Great Valley' was like a hidden Utopia. At least that was the impression I got, even when I was little.

Yeah, she was a bit elitist. maybe she wouldn't have been so bad had she not listened to her parents.
