Description This is a scetch I made last summer and only now bothered to finish. I usually don´t feel comfortable submitting a bit unfinished pictures like this, but then again I don´t have time to work on it any more that this, so it will have to do. Actually the reason why I bothered with this is the hair. I love drawing hair, and this time I think I have managed to create something a bit different.
Kyllä se sokeakin kana joskus jyvän löytää.
Btw, this picture was inspired by Botticelli´s The Birth of Venus. Don´t take it too seriously .

I would like it so much better if it was sans gun. The link in American culture between sexy/cool and guns and violence tends to disturb me, and I see this echoed in your piece.

I do like the shading and the general composition.

I think you have a point. I don´t remember what I quite thought when I was doing this, but now that I look this piece I have to agree that the gun doesn´t have any reason at all to be there. And yes, what you said about guns being sexy/cool is indeed rather disturbing, and now I hope that I had taken a copletely new direction when doing this picture. Thanks for your comment .

And thank YOU for your thoughtful reply! It always makes me nervous to leave critical comments like that, and I really appreciate when they're taken thoughtfully. Good luck with all your art!

Heh, Thanks . I know what you mean though, but I think that it is always much more better to get a comment with a real thought behind it rather than the usual OMG cool XD comments, which really don´t help to improve your art in any way at all.

cool! I love seeing artists do something a little different when inspired by the masters.. - and this certainly fits that bill! ^_^ Great job on the hair, and the details in her costume. the Gun together with her hooves really go towards makin' a kinda sinister feelin' to this beauty! ^_^

I don't think the gun really fits with the rest of the imagery but her hair and dress are wonderful. Nice choice of colors as well. Cheers!

This picture is beautiful. I like the way her hair flows and the paterns on her dress.
The gun looks a little strange in a "soft" picture like this.

I know. I like to make pictures that outwardly seem cute or kind or something like that, but have still somekind of ´surprising´element.

I love the surrealistic feel!
The horse-legs (If they are horselegs..O_O; ) look really interesting, and the flowing red hair is so...guuhhh... hair. I love hair. *swims in the hair*

The gown is beautifull, and the idea is so original... I'd just wish this would be a bit bigger file, that I could see all the beautifull details better... *tihrustaa*

Yeah...umm....I noticed that the file was way too small but I had already saved the file so there you go. Thats what you get from being a rash person.
