Fucking spectacular work here. The amount of detail is beyond amazing and I could just stare at this for hours. No complaints. Well done.

I must say this is an amazing drawing. I found it on my backgrounds app and it has been my iPods wallpaper for some time now. I have never known who to credit this to. But now I do. It rocks keep up the great work.

Exquisite tonal work!!! Beautiful composition and I love how you have kept everything so sublimely subtle except for the focal point; that exquisite jet of red hair and her sword pommel. They don't make them like you anymore. Congrats on make such an amazing work. You should definately be proud of this piece

There's one particular thing I find more astounding to my mind than just the standard "holy crap that's awesome artwork" thought. That is... I can't quite tell if that dragon is still alive or not... and that leads me to my next thought of if it IS dead, then did SHE kill it?!

Wow, this looks amazing. If you're not already, you should be a game designer, because the first thing I thought when I saw this (after thinking that it's gorgeous haha) was that if this was the cover of a video game, then man would I buy it.
Keep it up eh!

I don't usually comment, but this piece deserves it. I'm a sucker for the mostly B/W then with a touch of color. The pallet you used is great, and the mood you set for the whole piece is transporting. Overall exceptional job that, compared to some of the other works in your gallery, really shows where you've come from and how much you've improved. I hope to see some more like this in the future, could make a really nice series. And there's definately a story being told there.

yeah, i usually photoshop photos sometimes this way, but this is actually the first piece ive done full illustration. yeah, my work kinda fluctuates. im always striving for inspiration, and of course improvemnt. never being satisfied, is both a good and bad thing. thanks for the comment, i love those that make points about elements that effects one personally.
