    ^^ THERE IT IS!
    Yay!

    Verry neat wings you've got there. They most've taken forever!
    I'd like to see that picture in black an white - if you'll try to make it into a tatoo later ^_^

    I suppose it's gonna be a tattoo in color. Anyway, I still haven't been able to show it to that friend of mine, so I might decide to re-draw it or alter it depending on what he asks me.

    just don't try too hard to make it tattoo friendly yourself, let the tat artist do that as they probably will anyway.

    Wow that is pretty amazing. You really do have a great talent with coloured pencils.
    One thing I will say is that the way you have shaded the upper thighs makes them look bulgey and fat. I can't stop myself noticing it and it spoils the overall effect of the picture. That said, the level of detail you've included is astounding, just hope it will transfer to tatoo form.

    Could you post a picture of your friends tatoo when/if he gets it done?

    Thank you. This one's colored pencils and gouache.

    Edit: I'll sure ask him for a photograph, but probably I'll make a couple of other pictures before he chooses.

    Default The Summoner of Bahamut

    Rydia, once again. I have a fascination with this character. I'm not really satisfied with it though. This piece has been photoshopped much more heavily than usual. I duplicated the bottom layer with Multiply mode to have more intense colors, added a lot of shadowing, made corrections with the Liquify filter, and abused Vivid Light mode brushes. But I still see mistakes in the line art and shadowing.

    Please let me know what you think so I can improve.

    I think it's great ^_^
    She's got a real nice expression - and i adore the lightning effects. ^_^ You've managed to make it look like pure watercolour, and not stomped on in photoshop like alot of highlited/corrected pictures have an tendency to ^^'

    Plus the dragon heads angle is sweet ^_~ it takes alot of exprience to pull that off.

    What inspired you to do this drawing? and what other medias, than photoshop, did you use?

    I used watercolors and colored pencils. Then I scanned it and Photoshopped it. ^__^
    As for inspiration, well, not much else besides playing Final Fantasy IV and Amano artwork, which I adore.

    Man I was about to say, no way you did all that in photoshop xD

    First thing that I notice is how her chin looks waaay maculine. You could do with making the shadow beneath the stars less around and more of a straighter curve. Her shoulder also looks dislocated xD

    the colors are amazing though

    Way better than anything I could hope to do in the near future!

    As for some constructive criticism, her legs and pelvic area are really bugging me. Try working on those things in the future.

    It's beautiful. I think the dragon is flawless but I agree with Xaven about there being something really awkward with Rydia's hips/thighs/waist area.
