| 7 Nov 2004 |  Neil (iolair) Gratton | Brilliantly drawn, but I'm a bit confused about what's going on here. It looks like the snake is attacking the guy in the water, but at the same time the red-headed woman is stroking its head, and the guy in the green shirt is looking on quite unconcernedly. Strange.   Manuela P. Forst replies: "The red haired woman does not wish to tough the snake, she wants to help her friend. Even she would not reach him just by stretching her hand. I know that the drawing is quite hard to understand if you don't know the story behind it and I also know that I didn't do as good on the peoples expressions as I did on the waves. Maybe one day I should be able to combinate all those things to one good picture. But till then I will keep practising to get better.Thanks for the comment!" | |

| 7 Nov 2004 |  Anonymous | For the comment regarding the bow, that style does in fact exist, it's a recurve I believe. Great piece, hope to see more. | |
| 7 Nov 2004 | Zaj | The natural elements of this are really pretty. They have a very mythical look to them. I wish I could be in a place like this. It seems almost magical.  Manuela P. Forst replies: "Magic in the rocks, magic in the water - magic in nature! I believe there's no other way you can feel magic like this. Just go out and feel nature. So, I'll better stop this esoteric thing now ;-)" | |
| 7 Nov 2004 | Megan | The guy in the light green shirt seems a little funny, I think his legs are too short, but other than that it`s really great!  Manuela P. Forst replies: "Yes, that's just because it should be a halfling (Hobbit)." | |
| 7 Nov 2004 |  Simi Landau *Muffin Queen* | I love the giant snake! That's so cool. The waves are also great. Congrats on Mod's Choice! | |
| 10 Nov 2004 | Anonymous | OMG! this is watercolor? Doesn't look like that at all! Can't remember what the other medium I thought it was... Oh well. Anyway, I'll say you did a fantastic job with the layout. | |
| 6 May 2005 |  Stephanie S. K. Marbach | Wow, the water looks amazing!!! How did you do that with watercolours...??? Great job! | |
| 1 Oct 2005 |  Emilia Lindholm | the water truly looks very good...i´m having difficulties with that myself so...i´m impressed. The snake look also pretty amazing, love those green tones of its skin. | |
| 7 May 2006 |  Kristin A. Erickson | It has such a deep story. I love the scales, and how it looks like one of them is trying to pet the snake. | |
