an e-card illustration. Basic ink 'n photoshop stuff. In first sketch there was a major lizard lurking behind the raft. But it felt there was something wrong with the pic. When I changed it to this fair medusa lady, I knew I had it.

Wow, that is REALLY great! 1 I love the concept, and the way you drew the medusa-lizard thing is PERFECT. Lol the frog in the hair! loveit! VERY well executed.

here's my crits: i don't think the guy in the front's expression is quite right. I just don't get the same... feeling from him as I do the gal in the back. Maybe if he looked a little more.. worried or surpirsed. I don't know. Also, the HUGE empty area to the right annoys mea LOT. -_-; It was for a card, though, so if text is/was going there, then more power to you! But as a stand-alone image, I think it needs something over there... or a border of some kind to bring the composition back in where it belongs and not out in that huge mass of negative space.

But I'm only critquing because it's worth it. Awesome job; the lineart really does look like a proffessional one-panel comic.

Great illustration for a card. I'm impressed by the coloring, it's very clean and professional. I've had your gallery bookmarked over the past year or so and been watching your style advance. I'm lovin it. I wanna see more medieval-based costume designs 10

I just gotta say I'm lovin' the frog on top of her head. He's looking just a bit worried. *tehe*

Very sweet work indeed and almost amusing to me that you did this with photoshop. I distinctly remember you once stating to me that to use a computer was a simple "two-click" method that anyone could do..."if only it wasn't paintshop". Well here we are and beautiful work as always~_^
