SciFi and Fantasy Art: Fire archer

I probably can't say anything that no one else has said, but it's the colors that are so magnificent. They are vivid and have just enough shiny glint on them that they appear almost realistic, despite the painterly blurring of the whole picture. It's just a gorgeous picture to look at.

wow o.o *speechless* definately eastern though.

Beautiful picture. The colors are so nice and I love the soft background with the strong central character. very good work!

I like the way the clothing is illustrated. It looks vivid, alive and have fine color contrasts.

His/her right arm seems to be smaller in comparison to the left one. Shorter and slimmer unlike what an archer’s arm should look like. One tends to develop muscle from pulling back the taut string of the bow. In some parts of the picture the wind seems to be blowing towards the east side of the painting and in others places the west side.

The soft pink of the sakura petals surrounds the character and gives the picture a glowing kind of feel. While the character his/herself seems to be glowing themself with a firey spirit that gives the painting life. The character seems to be defying the rain clouds, saying to them that they will not extinguish his fire, his will, his soul.

A lovely job, my friend. I wish you strong and colorful brushstrokes in the future.
