Description Done in PSCS ( trial version is almost up ). I'm very happy with how this turned out considering I wanted to delete it about 20 times whilst making it, but something in my head made me persevere and I'm glad I did. There was one point where all I could make out was her face & the rest was black. The title is inspired by a manga movie called "Spirited Away". I thought with all the neon lights in the world there's gotta be at least one neon spirit out there. I noticed with this pic my style is stagnating a bit so I'll have to try something new soon & I find it hard to stray from using lots of colour & detail. Thanks to the deviants who supplied the materials and tools for this picture
Stock:
for Japan 001 & 006
for her lovely stock
for texture_0000000151
Brushes:
for dirty brushes_11 (nice set)
for eye_makeup (very cool idea)
for Old_polaroid (can't really see'em in the finished pic but I used 'em)
for random2, the swirly pattern that's prominent in the middle of the pic was made with one of these brushes.

The green moon in the background is a picture of the sun with filters over it, downloaded somewhere off the net. The glowing japanese symbols to the left of the sun/moon should translate to electricity/gas, light & spirit from top to bottom. I hope it's right. New CS lens flare for her eyes. A border didn't feel right for this pic so I didn't give it one.

Neon can be a bit of an overkill. I think though you accomplished what you set out to do without making it tired on the eyes.

The colors help oer eyes around the piece, but doesn't distract from her.

You're quite welcome for the brushes. Maybe more will follow one day. Thanks for the link.
