This, again, is one of my earlier pieces. I'm highly unimpressed with the scan, but such is life...her skin looks better than that in real life though, I promise! Anyway, don't mind the background, it was scribbled in at the last second because by then I was getting sick of drawing (first time in ages!), but I'm rather proud of the wings :o)

I think the background is great.. the *scribble* motion gives it this almost (and this is not an insult) children's book feel. You could illustrate children's book with your colouring skills. Her wings are lovely, I love how she seems lost in thought. Great!

1 Erin N. Conley replies: "Hehe! I never thought of it that way, but I'm glad you've thought of a way to make it look like I MEANT to color like that ;o) I'm glad you like it! Illustrating children's book would be great...in fact I wouldn't mind writing them too ;o) It's an idea...anyway, thanks!"

I also like the wings. ^^ You did a good job fading the colours... It's hard to fade from red to green, for some reason, I think... But you managed it. ^^ Yeay.

1 Erin N. Conley replies: "hehe yes...you have to put in all the in-between colors to keep it from turning brown ;o) Thanks for the nice comment! If I could only make all my wings look like these...;o)"

Wow thats really nice. The wings are quite lovely, and i think her legs look quite nice also.

2 Erin N. Conley replies: "Wow thanks! Glad you noticed the legs, it took a mirror, a very uncomfortable sitting position, and about half an eraser to get those right, and most people don't notice them ;o)...Thanks for the comment!"

Very pretty! I am in love with rainbow so she's my favourite of your pictures - beautiful - I love the wings and how they stand out from the roughness of the background*

1 Erin N. Conley replies: "Yay, a fellow rainbow lover! yeah you can tell I took more time on the wings than the rest of it...but I'm glad you like it that way 19) Thanks for the nice comment!"

Hiyo erin! Really like the wings on this one, really great! The background looks quite nice kinda sketchy 12 kinda makes you look at the girl more 2 her skin doesn't look that bad, when i scan my pictures, the skin comes out all messed up and scratchy, but it doesnt look like that in real life >_< really like her pose too. Well done!

1 Erin N. Conley replies: "Thank you! Yeah I hate how scanners do that, they never look like they do in real life...I always try to change the colors on the computer, but I can never get it to look how it's supposed to look! Ah well, thanks again, glad you like it 19)"

Wow! I love the wings! I think the background came out cool, I like the pond. Pretty Pic!!

2 Erin N. Conley replies: "Thanks! I felt like I didn't take enough time on the background, but I'm glad it turned out alright anyway 19) the pond was fun, and hard...Thanks very much!"

I agree. I really like the wings here. 2

2 Erin N. Conley replies: "Thanks! I need to do pictures with wings like this more often, they're rather fun to draw 19) Glad you like them too."

the upper wings really remind me of genesta from king's quest IV...2! nice2

63 Erin N. Conley replies: "Unfortunately I haven't played that one, I could never get the older games to work on my computer *sniff* Absolutely loved 5 and 6, though 19) Did you know you can get remakes of 1 and 2 online now? *gets all geeky but nostalgic* anyway thanks for the comment 19)"
