Beautiful. The detail is excellent. I was drawn to that sunlight, shining so brilliantly in the sky.

... .... absolutely amazingly beautiful piece--- I love the feeling of joy that clearly comes across.
Also one of the only pieces that truly seems to capture the power of wings, and looks convincing in that they could actually carry the person.
MAgnificent skill...

Wow, wow, wow!!!! I love this piece! And it's so cool that you incorporated Blue Jay patterning on the feathers! (I'm assuming it's blue jay feathers... they look that way anyhow )
Anyhow, absolutely stunning! I adore it! This will be fav #3!

Okay, so I really like the border. I may have to experiment with that technique. This piece is gorgeous. There's nice movent to the figgures, and YAY for complimentary colors!! I've always been a big fan of muted, soft, delicate tones as opposed to intense color.

oh wow... instant fav
i do have one (nasty little) nitpick to offer... i feel that the signatue is a lil like your hand was shaking a lil.. or som.. should consider redoing it (in my most intrucive and annoying opinion)
anyways.. the drawing itself is sooo friggin' awsome.. i'm speachless.. the clouds.. the face.. the body.. the outfit.. the wings... the hair.. all done to perfection .. *sheds my shoes in front of ye*
cheers

I love the detail you put into hair...It's like seeing every strand, and that's a nice change from just a big glued-together block of it. And the long braid is terribly neat. If my hair were that long (heh, almost impossible) I'd do that.
I really like the style of wings here...The paintings on the feathers are really neat, something a bit different from the ordinary. Their overall shape is very nice too.
The sky behind him is really lovely...The tectures on the clouds are gorgeous.
Very nice painting.

While the character in the front is very softly portrayed (as usual, with your blending style, kitty), the background clouds are quite polarized in comparison. It does lead to a slightly sloppier shading, but at the same time, the extent of color change in the clouds allows for a much better depth perception in the background.
The sky and water are blurred a little much for my liking, but they fit well as a whole. I'm also not a big fan of the lens flare, it appears a little clichΓ©.
The main character is gorgeously done. Muscle definition, wing pattern, hair, and the apron/robe thingy falling down from his waist are the four main things that stand out to me in this. The hair is wonderfully done, with a little sharpness and unnatural shaping on the individual strands, but not enough to make it painfully solid and unbelievable. As for the muscle definition, its just well done. Nothing more to say about that.
The wing and robe-like-thing patterns are fucking great. They both have an ancient form to them, making it a bit rustic and aged.
Lastly, the frame blur. Its very well done, and not something I see very often, so kudos. A very, very well done piece -- I hope you make lots of money----I mean have fun drawing these pieces for your company.
Good day.

I should use words, but then again - they are futile in this case.
The only thing I can see as a problem is the sunbursts, they look awful.

this is utterly sensational SK!
the wings are beautiful. and i love the chaotic flowing hair!
those line strokes are poetry!
that design work along the edge of the robe is cool as well.
golds, blues,...a perfect combination for the subject matter.
very very nice work!

It's been a while kitty.. I'm very glad you've finally found a job for yourself. And it looks like it's a pleasant one too.
As for the work I love particularly the background and the wings but I can see the high quality in everywhere - not least in the colors and the atmosphere along with the frame. Considering the position of the sun the character should appear as silhouette, though, but it's very understandable and realistic enough to change the lighting a bit. Hum.. maybe a little brigher edges near the sun could look good.. nevermind.. Very spectacular work.
