*squints* I'm having Issues. And I don't like it much. Issues with Photoshop, to be specific. I can't seem to find the appropriate balance between anime and painting, which bugs the hell outta me, cause, hello, anime fangirl here. I want to paint, but anime fanart kinda requires a certain degree of sticking to the lines. Am always bugged by anime art that doesn't resemble canon much. Translation = I'm in major, major artistic pain. And [livejournal.com profile] ravensilver suffers for it. I'm sorry, hun!





Now, I'm quite happy with how this picture turned out. Not very complicated, but made me happy. I think I might be getting the hang of the painting thing. Something's still missing, but we live and improve.

That's the prettiest thing I've seen all day (and that's saying alot considering I've looked in the mirror... totally joking about that part XD).

I love the softness and I think you've kind of found a balance between your paint style and anime drawing. You can feel the influence of the original art style, but you've softened it. And made it your own. I like it. It's dreamy.

:D I should add it to my job description: "providing things prettier than what you see in your mirror".

*huggles* Thank you! I was really trying to nail the painting thing.
