Description colored version of this --> [link]

you get a virtual if you get her name right!
she's an old character of mine that definitely deserves more love. If you're a veteran visitor of my gallery, than you've probably seen her before. I'm glad I decided to draw her, because like many of my old characters, I miss her.

this year's Halloween pic from me to all of you lovelies because I'm feeling festive & I don't remember making a decent Halloween pic in awhile.
I started this on Sept. 28; I purposely started this earlier than usual because I didn't want to finish it late. I just finished it today and I must say I'm pretty proud of it. I think my coloring skills are slowly improving. :3

Happy Halloween, DA!! Stay spooky!

The lines on this are lovely. Her orange, hollowed eyes and toothy grin seem reminiscent of a jack-o-lantern in itself! The tattered graveyard setting is perfect for this.

I never thought her resembling a jack-o-lantern herself; I'm very glad you see her that way--It makes it all the better!
Thank you very much! :3

I feel like a horrible watcher because I cannot remember her name, despite the fact that I've been around watching your profile since 2006.

Though seeing this has made me realize how much you have improved over the years, it's amazing really. When I first started watching you, you usually only drew right on the computer with your mouse on MS Paint. I found that to be admirable of you because I didn't have the capacity to do that well on the computer, much less with a mouse of all things xD Your anatomy has improved tremendously as the years went by, and I'm so happy at all the progress you have made. Even now that you're doing traditional work now, you never seize to amaze me what wonderful work you will bring forth into my inbox. I always look forward to seeing things from you.

Now, as for the piece itself, I am in love with the yellow lighting/highlights on her from the moon, it gives it such a soft and warm feeling despite its cool and chilling background for the Halloween holidays. Beautiful job with everything my dear.

that means so much, Ilse!
don't worry about the name; I can't remember the names of some of my own characters!

I've been drawing traditionally ever since I was little but the lack of a scanner for so many years encouraged me to start drawing digitally. It was a originally a hobby, and I'm glad I became as good at it as I did.
I'm so happy that you see an improvement; that's what I strive for.

Highlights are a pretty new thing for me, so I especially glad they're working out.

Thank you so much!

nope, she's not Silverwolfess, but good guess though; they're markings are almost identical. :3
