"In her previous life Khory had been a warrior... While death claimed her soul... the reaper found it had a challanger for her body: a demon imprisoned since time immemorial in the very stones used to construct [the dungeon in which she'd died].  That demon saved Thorn's life, and offered to help save Elora [Danan's], provided the Nelwyn sorcerer gave life to it's own unborn offspring.  The demon was a prisoner fomr time's beginning to its end.  It would not allow its child to share that fate.  The child was a soul without a body, Khory was a body without soul.  Thorn would be the catalyst that brought the two together and made them one.
    "He had never spoken of the ceremony...Revealing Khory's true nature would be an instant sentance of death, for her and Thorn both..."

I immediately picked this picture out from your gallery's thumbnails because of how well you drew the human figure. She is beautifully proportioned and her pose is very nice because she looks as though you have just walked up behind her.

I think you would really benefit from using a softer leaded pencil though, mechanical pencils have very hard lead and can make shading look scratchy. An HB pencil is equal to a No. 2, and they become progressively softer with higher numbers. I think that could really serve to soften and round your forms.

:-) K. ´Karahatay´ Fink replies: "I can see what you mean about the shading looking scratchy. i hadn't really noticed it before, though. I've worked with HB pencils before and never really noticed a difference, but, then again, I wasn't looking for one. 2 I'll definately give it a shot, though.Thanks for you comment! I really like this piece and have been sad that nobody's commented on it yet. I'm glad you liked it. 2 Thanks again!!"

Ahh, the mystery in those eyes. Wonderful!

I like how all your characters have unique outfits. The clothes really make the person in this case.

Have you thought about adding a background? If it is too much work, there's always the cheat: use a partial background. Our minds will make up the rest 2

:-) K. ´Karahatay´ Fink replies: "No, actually I hadn't yet given thought to a background, beyond something to lay that hand of hers on. I supose that the real problem I'm coming up against is that there wouldn't be an apropriate time for her to be so... un-armed. But I agree that a background of somesort would be helpful. As for the costuming, I'd never realized I do different things, but you're right, it really makes a differnce. Again, thanks for commenting!!"
