I love this picture! Your shading is awesome and the expressions on the fairies/elves are hilarious.

It reminds me of "Alice in Wonderland" a little. I like the attention to small detail such as the insect eyes. Good work.

This is simply amazing. I love the facial expressions. Do you mind if I color this, I will give you credit.

That would scare the crap outta me if i were a fairy. ...That frog is tiny.
This is very original. I love it! You're very good at values and textures, too.

It's cool, because it's like a Victorian faerie painting meets something out of a nightmare. I'd forgotten how nasty insects could look close to. Dragonflies are actually really vicious predators, so I wouldn't want to be that faerie.

The shading here is stunning. What medium did you use? Was this all done on the computer, or did you begin in pencil or what? Whatever it is, it's terrific!

Great concept. It looks like the dragonfly's tring to hit the brakes so to speak. The pixies' expresions are hilarious.
