Great stuff! I love the way you go about using color and lightning in your paintings. The mood in them is great. The assassin one is sweet. I love the whole subtle color scheme and how you use the color for contrast in setting the girl apart from the BG. But demn I feel like eating that watermark out. Do you often paint the grayscale first and colors later? I tried that once a loong time ago and failed miserably lol.

To sum this up: Fabulous. 8D

Omg.... wow.... Like I said in my PM to you, please feel free to go with your own style and do what you enjoy doing... it makes the piece feel more genuine and true to the artist's passion

Oh wow.
If it's not much trouble, you should have a video for your works to come. Further entertain those of us who enjoy the artistic process.

LOLOL. I'M TOTALLY DONE WITH THIS COMMISSION.

I made it 3.1415926e54 times more awesome than before.
To make sure I don't blind people with the sheer awesomeness of this version, I'll only put up a link:
I AM SO DONE.

I don't think there's any possible way I could have expected that outcome. Nice!

I hope I got across the jocular nature of that post.
Anyways, here is what I feel is the final version. It didn't change much, but I lessened some details in the background, and tried to give everything a bit more depth (and made the head the correct size/made the arm a bit less awkward ). Use whichever one you like looking at most. The first one has some more contrast, the second one has more depth and motion (I think). As of now, I'll consider it finished. Mallybum, please PM me or post here if you have any criticisms/requests. Otherwise, I'll probably move on to my next piece

Anyways, after this one is done, I'll be taking a break from normal commissions to do my freebies/auction. I'll continue down my waiting list after I finish with them. Keep your eyes peeled if you want in, I'll probably either make a new thread (with permission), or just update the first post.

Updating first post to reflect current queue.
I am currently starting work on Hail Fall's Auction spot commission, and after that, Little Shenanigans' Monk.

Please let me know if you want WiPs or just the finished product.

Welcome back, we in line missed you!

Kidding, it didn't really matter that much to me, I enjoyed seeing your freebies!

Can't wait to see what you'll do with Hailfall's necro (assuming she chose her necro)
