Description
So this year I entered =xRhythmOfLove 'sΒ ESS and I was assigned to Soo she gave me two very difficult horses to work with xD I don't draw unnatural designs much and I've never even drawn wings before 0.o So this was a very big challenge for me. Working on this was quite a drag but when the background came along so did my inspiration The background was a lot of fun to draw experienting with the colours and such
So yeah it was a difficuly challenge but I think it turned out quite nicely in the end? c: Still not happy with those wings and her hair though xD But I tried!
So Mirandarin I really hope you'll like your girl Issolde here and of course a very merry Christmas to you! Β
Also a big thank you to =xRhythmOfLove for hosting the ESS
Issolde: *Mirandarin
Art: Me *Paardjee

Ohh this is so pretty! I absolutely adore the colors
And damn, your skies are so beautiful With the stars and the fluffy clouds... :>
I think you did a great job on the wings, after all they were your first And you chose a difficult position as well, so kudos to you
Oh and I LOVE the Christmas lights!

Thank you so much Cyndi! Β
The sky in this one was so much fun to do! Definitely the one where I could be as abstract as I wanted
Oh God this horse was a horror to draw though xD Not my taste design wise and I found out that I despise drawing wings So much work 0.o

Ugh, I won't ever get tired of your clouds. I mean, how in heavens can you get them so...cloudy? (?)
And the colours, sdfkjsdkfjfzdfb- so soft and calming.
Love the tiny lights too! This picture is amazing.

This is your first time drawing wings? I'm jealous >> Cause you did them beautifully. I also really love the background colors, and the way you have the christmas lights under her wings and around her tail, very clever and pretty idea.

Haha yeah... More like I had to catch up after taking an unscheduled and unwanted break from DA XD I had over 400 pictures to go through O-o which is a lot to me.
Wings are definately difficult at the best of times lol But like I said, they look great. ^^ You are very very welcome <33

This is gorgeous! I love all the warm colors, and idk if its just because I'm tired but the clouds look like they could be moving by how real it all looks<3 love your backgrounds forever.

Oh God thank you for noticing! I was this close to saying 'you're welcome by the way, not that you thanked me or anything' xD
Guess some people don't really get what the ESS is actually about :/

Just bad manners, really. Ungrateful. You should've said something. She could do with a clue :/

Its lovely, especially the background and soft lighting of the christmas lights. Though she is missing her 2nd horn and the bangles in her hair are silver ^^

Paardjee In reply to Taielias-Bane [2013-12-25 11:12:51 +0000 UTC]
I'm glad to hear you like it c: Though this is the drawing I had for her reference shakeria.deviantart.com/art/Is⦠and here she only has one horn and brown and green bangles so I'm not sure what you're talking about ^^

Taielias-Bane In reply to Paardjee [2013-12-25 12:14:20 +0000 UTC]
(If you look closely in that piece, her 2nd horn is covered by that brown strand of hair. You can still see the white line which is her 2nd horn) Thats such a shame though, that the 2nd most wrongest picture of her out of the lot was selected to give you. I didn't link that image in my post. I linked to a gallery of a bunch of art of her (Giving an artist multiple views of her to see from all angles)

If id known a particular image would be selected I would have selectively picked one XD
Oh well. I don't expect it to be fixed, it was free XD

HOLY WOW
For the first time at wings, and not being a pro at unnatural designs, I'd have to say you nailed this beautifully!
I adore the color of the sky and the lights! EEEE this is just perfect!
