Description
Just something appropriate for the winter that's fast approaching.Done with pencils, HB and 2B and a 0.3 mechanical pencil
I adjusted the color balance to blue with photoshop, to give it a colder feel.
Please let me know what you think.

The arms are a little short, but it that's just your style then never mind. It is very pretty though.

Absolutely gorgeous. Hard to give an advanced critique on such a fine piece of work. The shades of blue goes well and gives a very cold, defining edge to the figure.

Fantastic drawing. I think there is a vivid balance between hard and soft edges which emphasises the image and with the harsh wintery blue tones, she seems even more powerful.

Amazing this would look great on pottery, it looks like sculpture with the depth it has.

Hmm, nice work done. First I've got to mention one tiny critique point: the wings seem to be a bit too large for her. they are well drawn ant the glamour looks nice, but I think she couldn't wear them for a long time. unless they're easy as feathers and the look more solid if you'd ask me.
The chara itself is verry well drawn, the gesture and her posture look verry natural and realistic. All the blue and white tones make a wonderfull colour combination. but the ice itself reaches the top - it's awesome, combined with the wind and snow it makes me tremble ^^.
Perhaps her hair should be waved into several different directions, from the changing wind, but that's rather unimportant. Maybe you'd add more snow for a more "icy" feeling, but it's a marvellous picture anyway. Definetly like her.
Hope I could help you at least a bit to improve your picture. Best wishes for future effort. Cya

I am a big fan of wings and these wings are certainly different to what i'm used to! They are very beautiful, i like them alot

This is GREAT!!! You are so talented...
First off, the detail in this piece is amazing... very beautifully drawn - I only wish I could draw as wonderfully as you!
The concept is really quite fascinating... and I love how she seems to be foating - everything about her is very graceful.
Also, the tones and shading is really lovely...
Nice work!!

Nice contrast and work on the wings. The wings look shiny and that is important. The clothes dont exactly fit but that is just stylistic opinion. Hair is good, and face. The antomy is great. I cant draw women worth a flip. Great!

I like this very much...Its funny, I sat down last night to draw something similar to this but it just wouldnt happen for me so I drew my new avatar instead.
anyway I like the feel of this and the color choices.

thank you for stopping by!

beauty!!! th wavy waters, the figure and especially the wings. Really favour the icy glows of the wings!! Detailed shading overall;

Its cool that it is in blue (color psychology effect of tranquility). I like the texture of your work. I think it would be better if soften the edges so that it can give more flowing feel and breeze. Also the wind would give more flowy feel if you add more white spaces (looks a bit sharp) but then again I don't know the big idea behind your work so who am I to say that. Overall, Good job!!!

The hard edges were to give a more icy and rigid look to the scene. As for the wind, you might be right, I was not sure how to make it and thought this looked good, but I never tried to make it the way you mentioned and I think it might have worked even better.
Thanks for the feedback.

Wow, I really like this, the blue effect really shows, though the body looks a little strange to me. Maybe it's from that angle, but her arms look extremely tiny compared to her chest, but then again her chest could be the problem. Other than that keep it up, it's very interesting. I love the wings, they have an almost icy effect, and the movement of the waves are just mesmerizing. Keep it up na ka!

Great colour choice, perhaps I would like to see more blue shades...but I guees you made sure to stay safe and not overdone!
The use of white is very good, as the shadows.
This piece has a lovely, feminine vibe wich makes it very pleasently to the eyes

waaaaaaaaaaa you very good in detailing!!
i cant help it....i like everything though the wings is quite disturbing

Brr! I'm cold just looking at it! Lovely sense of movement. I like her wings too, you make them look very convincingly shiny. The one thing I would change is a little thing in the composition. Her hair and dress are both blown the same way, and especially with the light color of the dress, they seem to unbalance the image a little bit. I would crop a bit off one side or the other, if you can bear to, to get it to look either perfectly centered or deliberately offset. I really like your work, keep it up!

Thanks for the cooment and the advice. Sadly though, I don't know if I would be willing to crop it just yet. Maybe later in time, I will feel ok with it. I tend to agree that it could help balance it more though, so who knows? I might do it.

Good work, I love the wings and the fingers/hands. Nothing to add to the criticism already mentioned.
