Description
Fullview makes it pretty. Trust me.100% Pure Illustrator
Photoshop never touched it.
This is my gift to myself on this, the day of my 21st year alive.
I wish to thank the following people for helping me get through this project:
Justin Legel, for being the best friend I ever had, and always saying my work is good.
Dan Vann, For pushing my creativity to its bounds just by being near me.
Katelyn, for listening to my nightly rants about nothing in particular.
The band New Found Glory, for thier album Catalyst, which was filled with wonderful music for me to hum to while working on this.
*meralis , For guiding me through the early stages of this peice.
~queenfish , for challenging me to come up with my own personal style, and being damn cute altogether.
`turn2002 , for supporting me in my new stylistic changes.
~fuzzdecay , for helping me through the middle portion of this, and arguing for mac superiority.
~yi3artist , for helping me derive my style
^voodoo-prophet , for pushing me to further vector art with my own skills
`sirspy , for listening to me rant about inane things and being generally constructive when we talk.
I thank you all for your help, I could never have done this without all of you.
Hurray for Deviant Art, and Vector Brothers FOREVER

Nice pic, I like the style you've used here, it fits the piece really well. The lightning is really bright compared to the rest of the picture though....but now that I look at it a bit more that's good too

Excelent piece.
I like the way you use sharp lines, but still capture all that detail.
My 3 favorite aspects of this piece are the character design [ horns, pointy ears, fur, claws, and 6 friggin' wings - How the hell did you come up with the drawing of them and make it look so good - i can't do one pair of wings >.< ] , the best damn lightning EVER [ and cool little balls of it near his hands ] , the beautiful colro backgroudn and simple, but gothic designs.
Are the gates opening into a place where the demon is ? I see that the doors(?) are over his wing tips.

Thou art NOT old...my age comes to 1,973 next month.
~sparkly magic stuff~ But happy birthday NEway. Feel good to NOT have seen the REAL Middle Ages. Nasty times, they were...as well as the Salem Witch Hunts, where I was burned, stoned, and finally decided to play dead for a few centuries. You humans are weird, y'know that? ^^ I'm gonna snooze a bit [if I can get help from my dwindling magical energies] Aw, Circe...there I go again...

we definitely all need to release our inner demons sometimes.

Thank you much, the wings were a pain to balance, 3 sets of wings in 3/4 view on a 2D plain is a mindnumbing concept.

The facial expression and angle came out very well
I love the hues that you used, with the blues and the purples. The glowing lightning really pops out.
I really love the claws too for some random reason...

Thanks, yeah I know what you mean about the angle, I have messed with it at least 20 times in the past to no good result. The skin color is just what I naturally thought of when I thought of demon skin, I just started there with color and carried it on throughout. I was rather proud of the lightning. Oversizing the hands and feet to turn them into demon-esque parts was also fun. thanks for commenting.

That is detailed! And it glooooows, ooooh! That is really awesome, really! I am honored that you mentioned me as helping you, I didn't even know that cuteness had that great a power 
And Happy Birthday again, you should print this out and get it framed! I bet it look great!

I basically thought, ok, queenie has a style that involves little circly tails and such. What could be the opposite to that? So, no curves or tails period was my idea, and I ran with it. Truth be told, I think I might get a prints account for just this peice.

Wow I use illustrator alot but I don't think I'll ever be THIS good ! I love the colors and the background, but especially the lightning ! You rule !

It just takes time and practice, I never thought I could do something like this either. But when you work to be your best, anything can happen. Thanks again.

this is f**kin rad man! this looks a lot better than the pixelated bitmap you sent me, lightening and wings are awsome, but the figure itself is the best part, love that purple, the expression on his face and his horns are very well done
glad I could be of some help

Thanks again for your input. I love to throw those bitmaps at you guys and get working feedback. I miss being in tighter groups working on stuff together. But thanks for the kickass comments, I aim to please you guys.
