Description
OMFG....FULL VIEW FULLVIEW FULL VIEW FULL VIEW FULL VIEW FULL VIEW FULL VIEW
promise me you will full view!!!! OVER A MONTH went into the background ALONE - ENTIRELY BY HAND.
yes, the background was entirely created by me using brushes. NOOOOO kidding ;D However, the
texture in the lower-right foreground was pasted in - that was the only thing I didn't generate. Everything
over/beside/around it was still amde by me.
Not fullviewing this would honestly like kicking me in the balls... I worked my fucking ass off
and for anyone to not admire it in detail would make this all pointless @_@
I've really outdone myself this time *____*;

Taka Tony - amazing drawing style which this character is based

Very beautiful, and supremely sexy. The water is clear and attractive, as is the female. The wings are a little off and sub-par in comparison to the rest of the picture, but the image as a whole is lovely.

all is very good. especially the background. it support your picture. but, maybe it just my feeling. the pond isn't really given that is a real water.

The water looks amazing.
The background looks good.
Excellent color and tones..
The only gripe here is that:
The wings dont look convincingly wet.
marvelous work otherwise,

Perfect! Aria and the water are stunning!
Congrtaz! I'm definetly faving this!
I dunno what are those lines in the sky, don't think they suit the pic very much as well as the whirlwind.
What am i saying? The picture is awsome! Good Work!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
uhm... whirlwind? o.o oh! that bit of blue energy.. Well, making a background that suited the perspective was the hardest and most frustrating part of this whole thing, more than brushing everything infact.. so something surreal solved all these problems

Lol, you could have done something more close to the real like concentrate more in the swimming pool idea. But it's great, and the sky looks really nice. Hope seeing more drawings from you. ^^ You only have one character, that's weird, 'cos usually ppl have more characters, so that they don't get bored.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I have 2 characters actually. But I never made proper artwork from the other like Aria. I don't get bored, because I never run out of ideas for a picture for her though

U are going to make this a print right O_O ? This is fantastic %_% I want to see the original resolution one x_x
One suggestion : I think the wings could have been shaded more, they look slightly flat compared to the rest of the piece. Also, they seem a bit narrow...but thats just my opinion.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would love to make it a print ;_;... but I don't have a subsciption to have that option 
As for a full res pic, it doesn't actually look *as* good, because I designed it to be downsized. (and some effects count on the way photoshop resizes to make them look realistic. well, the waterfall water anyway n.n) Though at half size (2392x1556) it's still good, and the details are still awesome and even clearer. n_n
Yes, the wings are very narrow, but I didn't want to cover her body any more than I allready had, actually I wish more of her back was shown -_-;
the shading to the wings is mostly uniform due to the fact that theres no light directly hitting the visible side, and therefore no direct shadows. Elaborate wings (for me anyway) take weeks and weeks... and the biggest reason 'Aria Plasma' took 2 months. ^-^ thankyou so much!

I'll try and buy you a print s account someday, that way you can get this up on prints...as for the wings, you could have always made them transparent...that way the body would show up and everything behind the wings, and ud still be able to have full fledged wings. I love your work and I hope to see more of it, it inspires me. You're welcome ^_^

whoa! what an honour! X3
I allready have a wallpaper version for mine - I just added black borders to suit a 4:3 aspect ratio. But yes, it makes one hell of a wallpaper though
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, it looks like it will make a nice one, once i get tired of looking at Urahara Kisuke (from bleach manga/anime)....i change wallpapers like once a week normally...this bleach one's lasted for 2 weeks now, so its long overdue... o.O ....something with some curves (the female kind >.<

for some reason the quote " if life were like that, you woldnt need master card" popped into my head when looking at this pic...anyway
your background is really interesting, and although shes in a rather..'touching' pose, your colouring is wonderfuly done , a swell as your lineart. the only thing that bothers me is the bottom of her hair. Its a little plain compared to the rest of her.
otherwise great pic

It's kinda hard to have detailed hair AND make it look drenched.. ^.^; I haven't exactly seen many people draw wet hair.. I'd like to see how others would go about it. But thanks alot for the comments

Yey!!! I'm loved! XD
thankyou so much for the wonderful praise ! but I don't mind long comments at all n_n. As for a next picture, I probably won't make anything as elaborate until next year though ^.^; I have presents to draw which will keep me busy for a while. <3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, well that's cool. I'm sure that any presents you draw for anyone will be totally awesome! And you're welcome. Someone with such amazing talent as yourself deserves the wonderful praise. But anyway, I'll be sure to keep leaving you long comments then.
