Not only you made this look uncontrollably realistic, you seem to have added a great touch of the extreme, Xanatos looks ripped.
But in all, it's breath-taking, this is diffenately a Fav.

Yeah, I guess I've finally developed a style of my own, even though it's been a mass of influences (Emiliano Santalucia, Paul Kidby, Don Rosa...) from others. At some point it was really Disney-ish. I can imitate the Gargs stylishings till some degree, but these days I kind of prefer to draw most of my works using my own twists.

I'm a really new fan to this show, so I'm definitely not going to leave it alone in a while. XD But there are still a few people contributing to this fandom. You see them around at DA every now and then.

I'm happy to see that there's still someone who makes good gargoyles fan art around the net ^_^

I guess I strive into megalomania because I want to challenge my skills every now and then. This one took however a bit too much cursing and nail-biting to finish, so probably won't be sidestepping into projects alike in a while. But I don't want to let the quality degrade, just lessen the character amount. I really want to develop my coloring techniques further too, as I find working with cel shading extremely boring.

As usual, the hair jumps out at me first, followed by the facial expressions. THOSE are most impressive. The picture as a whole looks very nice, but those are the things that draw my eye first.

Took a bit of making faces in front of the mirror to get the expressions right. But I wanted to catch the right amount of drama and suspense here. I think expressions are a big part of it.

A bit artistic lisence, but they're in the crosslight of strong blue and yellow, and the hair in reality catches most of the reflected tones. So it's a bit compromised now, because I hate leaving black entirely black.

Her name's written with one s. Elisa.

Well, I did most of the coloring work back in July, and got back to it later on to fix some mistakes and add the final shading. Kinda got bored to it midway round, hence the longer break. XD

Oh yes, especially when my dorm was like an overheated sauna most of the summer. When the stylus keeps slipping off your hand because of sheer temperatures and the sun shines against your face at 11pm, the patience dies. XD And this one really required it.
Thank goodness my room isn't that infernal any more and we have some actual *darkness* again.

The hair, actually, usually takes the least time. I draw it with very quick and sharp brush strokes on a few layers. It goes faster because I don't need to care about any smoothness aspects, like those in the faces and so on.

Yeah, it took some time. I did most of the coloring work at the beginning of June, but sorta lost interest midway round and got back to it later on. Probably a good thing I let it simmer a bit because I could pinpoint a few mistakes and fix them in a better manner.
