Yet another character from an online game. Aludra's mature, sophisticated, noble, and, of course, beautiful -- at least in the eyes of the artist. I wanted to have her looking relaxed yet regal. The pic is done mainly in colored pencils, not counting the Photoshopped background, based on a suggestion from Irina Goodwin (thanks, Irina!).

TA! I am so honoured that you used my idea. Please accept my humblest thanks. It really does look great and makes the picture more complete and gives it more depth. The wings are fantabulous as usual but you don't need me to tell you that...

:-) Astra M. Poyser replies: "You're very welcome! It was an excellent suggestion, and a simple way to put in a background without having to go through the hassle of drawing one (*ahem*). Anyway, thank you for all your kind compliments, both on this piece and others. Much appreciated. 2"

Really pretty! The dress and its shading is the best part. =D

Dosn't drawing angels doing nothing get boring?
(don't get me wrong they are done good)

WWWWOOOOOWWWWW!!!

but there's 1 thing wrong...
see the floor? it looks like your looking at it like you're hanging above it,
then look at the ...er... bed (?) the viewer sees it from an other perspective, like you're still hanging but this time you're hanging lower,
that technically fits, 'caus the object is higher,
but the difference is.. too big, it looks weird..

Wow, she was very gracefully done. Her curves seem very natural yet posed like a model at a photo shoot. ^-^ Nice fabric
22 Nov 200445 Hey
Very nice. Just one thing though. Her hairline (is that what it's called? I keep forgetting!) seems to be too far behind. Um, i don't really know how to explain it. It kinda looks like she only has hair on the back and on the top of her head... Ok, I have no idea if you understood that, but I hope you did. Anyway, lovely piece.

You are one of the few people who can make pencil crayons look good, most of the time they just look crap, but you make them look amazing!
