The huge wings are beautiful, I just think they're too dark comparing to the rest, but other than that, it's great. The roots and the clothing are amazing

Yay, wings actually big enough to fly with! I can't believe you took a photo that clear with a digital camera. It turned out wonderful. Probably it helps to start with a really good drawing.

It's sad about your scanner, and having to rely on a digital camera. Still, the detail is still pretty damn good for a camera. It's interesting to see your pencilwork, which I happen to think is wonderful. Well, I pretty much love anything you do, but your pencils have a very Victorian feel about them. Also reminds me of Alan Lee's pencil concepts for LotR. The composition is perfect, with the wings framing the picture and the contrast between the swirls of the bark, the curves of the feathers, the gnarled branches, and the straightness of her gown. And I'm envious of that tree, I really am. AND the folds of the dress. And folds is like my fave thing to draw, and I'm jealous!!!! Gorgeous work, I do look forward to seeing it in colour, if Nyctopterous get's round to it.

This is really beautiful Nell! I love the wings, so much detail All i can do as far as feathers is fluff
But you drew every little last one, and detailed each of them! I also love the base of the tree, all the roots and stuff. Lovely work

Thanks Rachel!
The roots were the part I had most fun on! The wings though...I had a bit more trouble with. I wasn't sure whether to make them dark or not, because originally, she was going to be an angel of death.
But anyway, your comments are always appreciated!

fucking cool, there is probably nothing wrong with this picture I love the damn pencilwork but hmmmm...the wings seem too huge, I think it takes away from the rest of the pics, people in trees are cool on its own but WINGS?...my god that is just uber neato or something that I would say concidering I'm a smartass.
