Description *gasp pant expire* OKAY. It's done. Hope she likes it This is my half of an art trade with , who requested either an emerald tree boa naga or...I think it was a Taiwan beauty snake naga? Anyway, I went with the emerald tree boa, obviously, and I think he came out okay. Took a very rough sketch, scanned it in, and just colored on it in Photoshop. Some parts are screwed up, like the composition, contrast of lights and darks, and his wings (guhhhh) but...overall I'm okay with it, despite rushing it near the end :3

oh, i missed one! Perhaps he should have an evil expression on his face to match that snake's famous bad temper.

I loooove him, and not just because he's an emerald tree boa (my favoritest snake ). The green is so vibrant, and I love the way his body wraps around the tree limb. Great job on the foliage, too--I always get lazy when it comes to backgrounds.

Oh dear me! You know it's not very often one comes across someone with amazing colouring skills, and a supremecy for incredibly mythological creatures! Such a gorgeous naga design, and the setting it ethereal. Gorgeous, gorgeous work. KEEP IT UP!

I know I already said this, but DAAAAMN, that is some awesome coloring. So different from Liz's usual style and still its fucking EXPERTLY DONE.

Geeze, I'm only a little astounded. >:0 Its like, Woah, what the fuck, SMOOTH and nice, and UGH, the background! ;_;

You know how Holly likes the green things, and this guy is just as handsome as he can be. WTF you are the Nagagoddes..

He's great! I really enjoy the butterflies and the leaves too. And that it's all painterly with no lines- I never have the nerve to try that. Emerald tree boas are very pretty snakes.

Yours might be a while though, sorry to say, because 1) I'm having some computer troubles and 2) I'm in the middle of exams anyway. I'm about 70% finished though.

Okay, coolest picture EVER. I love it. It's /excellent/. His wings were done outstandingly, and the colors you chose were perfect! And the background is so detailed....I love it.
His coils are the sex.

I LOVERS the speckles. :3 The colors are very bright, which is a good thing: gives me that tropicy feel. Good job, Lizzy (McGuire? OHO)!
