Its good but.. looks very stuffy.. I don't know the story, the characters, or even why the triangle was used.. so am not really in a position to comment.. yet i feel you could do much much better..

I repeat (as stated on the artist's comment area)... This is NOT the book cover... only the triangle visual (unless you want the visual on a white bg). The book cover doesn't look stuffy for the map is almost not visible. Thanks anyway.

k, got that.. but was just commenting on this particular pic, not saying that your book cover is stuffy, as I've not seen it in the first place... i was talking about this one... not the actual book cover.

I need a pro to back up the story as what my adviser mentioned I can place comments of people with a name in the industry in the appendix of thesis book (somebody respected in the academe something like that). But if you want to read the story I must contact ~Jinny527 cuz most likely she can release the revised version of her story on her account but it depends on what we agree upon. Anyway thanks a bunch and I mean no insult.

I could review if you want. At least to make up for the lost data. I really wish you good luck and that it turns out to be a hit!

A review would be good, I suppose you can finish that quick enough for you already know the story.
Thanks a bunch.

Hey! I really like the general design I think it'll look great as a cover
Oh btw do you want me to write a review? It won't take me long since I know the story

Well, the map thing can really be seen on the actual cover it just so happens the the front cover only contains the half of it so I fixed it to look not so like book cover itself here in DA.
About the review. I think you shouldn't cuz I placed your name on the book's title page as a co-author. So if you make a review, my jury may ask why did the co-author make a review on a story she worked on. I think its kinda weird reviewing your own work. (atleast for me)
Thanks again.

No problem I wasn't sure if you were going to include me as an co-author for the thesis. But thanks
I really appreciate it!

Why wouldn't I include you? I'm not the type of person who claims something which is not completely mine (unless if it really is mine ).
You deserve credit that is why your name is placed on the book itself plus the thesis book of course.
BTW a lot are aching read the story so somehow its up to you if you want to publish it (I read the revised one and fixed the wrong spellings and scene confusion like when Casimir was the one to ride Lux to get the stone instead of Amras etc). Just notify me if you want to so I can advertise you first (trust me, people will go to whatever site that is). Anyway somehow I think I want a game or animation to be made of that story in the future so I'll try what I can to get into the animation or gaming industry. I'll never forget you even at that time comes to reality (if ever it will come true that is ).
Thanks again.

Well I'm up for working on the story some more. Although it will be over a longer period of time becaue I really have very limited time for fun stuff. I'm actually a graduate student in Cell Biology and Genetics so I spend most of my time doing research. I usually have a few hours a night to either write or draw. But yes, I would like to help you finish the story. I think it'll be very rewarding to have it be finished and possibly published. I know there are sites like lulu.com [link] where it's rather easy to publish and sell.
Sorry this message is kinda long but basically I'm looking forward in finishing this collaboration with you

But if this gets published then people would most likely be hanging for how the story would end for as we both know that the story left a lot of questions and obviously not finished.
Long messages are better than a bunch of short messages with the same topic.

The orb thing is... so shiny and awesome. Apparently I'm attracted to shiny objects.
The creature in the background is also really cool. O_O Looks like Bahamut. (And like he's gonna eat that guys head.)
I also very much like the way that you made it a triangle!

mickyoko In reply to KyraShangea [2007-02-02 16:46:07 +0000 UTC]
All the images there have a reason especially the triangle formation which my thesis adviser like for it supported a lot of my designs like the form of Garland and the royal crest of Roland (kingdom of Amras). BTW Lux the dragon is a good fellow and is merged with Amras. Anyway you don't know the story but I hope that this info adds up somehow. Thanks.

That's all very interesting. I love dragons, too, especially when they aren't evil...
You're welcome.~

Oh my FRIGGIN GOSH! I swear, even just doing these illustrations for your thesis I've noticed a HUGE improvement! These last two pieces I've seen have just taken my breath away! And I'm not just saying that, I was truly shocked with how beautiful it is. It's a really great design, with the map in the background, then the stone, then Amras and finally Lux. Amazing job and don't doubt for a second that I mean that.
Didja want a review from me too? Not that I'm a pro or anything near that ^_^6

Even though I usually don't have class on Friday until 10, today I had a test at 9 AND in order to get a parking space anywhere near my class I have to be here at 7:30 >< But there is my attempt in any case.
