To those who dont know, Nagas are half human, half water serpants. In this particular drawing one is holding the body of a fallen sister.  They are in a Ice cave (which was a real pain to draw). The killer of this frozen beauty is up to the critic. It could have been a human, or perhaps a jealous fellow Naga. Its all up to you!

I love the back ground and the emotion that comes from this piece. The only thing i would say is wrong with it is that if he was holding her like that her back would be more arced and her neck wouldnt be so stiff. Other than that its spot on!Great job

:-) Melissa Dalton replies: "Yeah, I noticed that too... a little too late and I didn't bother to change it. It kinda just started as a sketch and grew, lol. Thanks alot though. 2"

if she's dead shouldn't her head be hanging dow? It looks like she's in complete rigamortis.

:-) Melissa Dalton replies: "Well yeah, as was said in the previous post. 10 But i tried to have it so it looked like her head was being held up by the others hand but it didnt work out too well lol. Trial and error"

If the stabbed one had been laying on the floor for like 5 days, wouldent her limbs just freez like that?
The stabbed one also needs longer hair that drapes to the floor in long swishes. It would work better with the backround.
You really need to try some different hair styles. Be adventerous! ; D
Isn't the alive naga a she?

:-) Melissa Dalton replies: "Hehe, well most of these shaded ones are about 3 years old now- almost 4. I went through a stage where I did most of their hair that way. I guess it just looked really pretty to me for some reason. 1"
