Description This one's for =daughterofthestars , this is her beautiful character Calysra, mostly known as Cy'ra.

I absolutely loved drawing her, Kate! She's wonderful and so fun to draw!

Here's Cy'ra wandering on a snowy landscape, I just thought snow fits her better than any other thing. This is probably one of my favorite works.

Kate, you can consider this a very belated b-day gift XD I hope you like it!

This is absolutely gorgeous! I really like the purple highlights, actually! Was it a violet blue color?

PolarisAstrum In reply to Aryenne [2007-08-14 14:02:09 +0000 UTC]

No, I only used blue but my scanner likes to make up colors... Well at least someone thinks it's not that bad XD Thank you so much!

Aryenne In reply to PolarisAstrum [2007-08-15 00:38:42 +0000 UTC]

You're very welcome! Scanners sure do have a knack for ruining colors, though. Lately, I've been mostly lucky.

PolarisAstrum In reply to Aryenne [2007-08-15 12:47:23 +0000 UTC]

Yup! My scanner looks like it needs food so it eats the colors of my works XD

Aryenne In reply to PolarisAstrum [2007-08-16 03:43:00 +0000 UTC]

They have a tendency to do that. Haven't heard it quite phrased that way before, I like it! My dad has always had HP All-In-One printer/scanner things. I've very rarely had any color problems with scans on his HP scanners. Maybe when it comes time to get a new, you ought to look into them. In the meantime, just lots of Photoshop cleanup, right?

Ha, if only I had photoshop XD I don't know if the same happens in the US, but in Portugal that program is REALLY expensive... but I might get it someday, I just need to get good grades on school XD

Aryenne In reply to PolarisAstrum [2007-08-21 03:07:51 +0000 UTC]

Photoshop is super expensive here too. I'm thinking of buying an older version on eBay or something. Oh, well, sometimes you just gotta do the best with what you've got.

Yay I love it! It's so spot on! And you're right, she does like snow... and stars... which is why Ashley painted her that way.

But it's so pretty! And I gladly accept this belated b-day gift! Thankyou so much!

This is SO amazing! Just yesterday I was looking at some of your older pictures that I had saved to my computer, many of them you have taken off of Elfwood, and it's unbelieveable how far you have gotten! Even though the scanner was bad on this scan, I still think it looks lovely, and the moon is well done too. I'm sure Kate will love this!

Lovely Cy'ra does seem to fit with snowy landscapes really well. That's what I did with my picture of her...or maybe Kate requested snow...can't remember. Anyway, love it!
