It's icy BLUE! *loves blue* Umm...yeah, well this picture was made to be a Neverwinter Nights portrait but I decided I wanted to upload it into Elfwood as well. The base image was originally a simple rendered image of a female my sister made on a demo version of 4d cinema. So from that image, I generally just used the pose and painted everything over from scratch. The original image itself mainly helped me as a reference for the shadows on the skin. And I feel like I'm finally getting the hang of painting hair...but I think I kinda overdid the background with the magic orbs and mist...but I'm extremely happy with the pic, overall. Oh, and I decided to name this pic after my NWN character, who was a monk/barbarian/rogue. But this turned out looking more like a spellcaster than a m/b/r. And on the side note -- the glowing tattoo on her face says 'power.' I used the WP MathExtended A text to type it out...just thought it looked interesting. 0_o

The eyes are the first thing that drew me in. Very cold and unemotional, and also beautiful. WELL DONE!!

Is that a little pixie thing in the bubble that she's looking at?

Lovely! I especially like the way the tatoo glows. I wouldve been tempted to get it to give some of it's light to the surroundings, but what you've done is just right, it makes it stand out more. Nice composition too... *smacks hand for using the word nice*

Oh, my god! *Glomps* I love this picture through and through. The background, and the shading, and the...everything! I love this style--luminous, a bit surrealistic in the lighting, but realistic in the anatomy, and extremely 3-D. And the BACKGROUND!!!
Sorry. Ranting. *Grin*

I can't really elaborate on anything that's already been said here, but this picture is utterly well done. The background gives me a sort of nostalgic feel -- but that's just me, I doubt it does the same to anyone else. And when pictures make me feel nostalgic, you know they're impeccable...
