Description this is kinda like a remake of this: [link]
...well I had planned on it being a remake, though I didn't have any access to the original picture for reference at the time when I was sketching if I did then she would be in the old pose...

honestly I'm not too happy about the background or the shading of the jellyfish, I'm only really uploading this because I'm happy that I drew an ear, toes and how I drew her eyes and nose

...mrrppp, this has been done for a week >_> why must I be so lazy at uploading this stuff!?

This is amazing! Waow!! I love the cyan lighting and the tint from it that you've drawn on her right leg. And together with the pink lighting it creates a wonderful contrast! *u*
The bubbles and the jellyfish are really cool, and I love her design, her outfit is totally ingenious!

Far too adorable. I love the transparency in her skirt to make her look like on of the jellyfish, that must be difficult to do.

Thank you yeah that part was annoying to do I really don't like working with object transparency.

So is her dress. Your images with jellyfish are always really well done.

I have one question, why don't you like the background or the jellyfishes?? I would give my right leg and left arm if I could make backgrounds half at good as this! I really love this drawing and it really inspired me to make a new pixie! (I haven't uploaded her yet) You should be proud of this and be proud of what you can do!! It's amazing!

well, it's not so much that I don't like them, more that I think I could do better and they didn't quite turn out how I wanted. In terms of the whole picture I think they fit fine, but as single objects I'm not as happy with them as I would like. Thank you ooh, you'll have to show me when you upload it Thank you again ; ^ ;

No problem! You are one of the most talented I know on deviantART and if you don't like your drawings (before you finnish them and upload them) then I think you should walk away from you drawing in five minnuts thinking of something else Then go back and look at it, to see what do you want to change or is it fine as it is?? Because we CAN'T se the jellyfishes as single objects We can se the whole drawing and it's smazing! Colourfull as always! And ofcourse I will show you the drawing ^^

There's always next year, where you can draw it again...

oh neat. x)
you may be frustrated with some things, but I like it! 8) You use colors nicely! and I like how you make some things in your images glow and others not; gives it a nice balance.
and I like the little details such as being able to see the dress under the jelly skirt-thingy... and the bubbles

Mrrppp, I like this. Quit complaining about it so much.

I imagine some cartoony song playing during this scene about meeting a jellyfish friend. I also like the idea of Puzzlespace. Or is it deep underwater?

chicinlicin In reply to monkeynohito [2011-08-01 10:00:17 +0000 UTC]

hehe I didn't mean to complain so much, though my comment does make me seem more disappointed and unhappy with this.
hmm, I'm not sure which

Y'know, an artist is really only 1/2 of what makes something a work of art. If you put too much energy into re-working and having second thoughts about a piece, you aren't giving the audience a firm foundation on which to form an interpretation. :3

Maiumaora [2011-07-28 19:02:32 +0000 UTC]

I love her hair, and the reflected light coming from the jellyfish just looks so pretty.

The ear looks a little bit on the small side, but since your style is pretty chibi, that's probably fine. lolidk
It's nice to see ears and toes incorporated into your stuff, though~

chicinlicin In reply to Maiumaora [2011-08-01 09:57:48 +0000 UTC]

thank you
yeah, in comparison to her eyes and the rest of her head they are probably a bit small(and out of place), actually they were originally going to be smaller and rounder It was quite nice to get some of those features in~

Kitti606 [2011-07-28 12:22:40 +0000 UTC]

I wish I could see the underdress more clearly.

She's touching a jellyfish. 0.0 I guess she gets away with it because she sorta IS one.

^^

chicinlicin In reply to Kitti606 [2011-08-01 09:54:30 +0000 UTC]

yeah, the overdress should probably be a bit more transparent, though I found that this was the best level of opacity to have it at where you can see most of the over and under dress.

hehe well she's only touching the bell of the jellyfish, that shouldn't be toxic...or maybe the toxins just haven't hit her yet

chicinlicin In reply to NinRac [2011-08-01 09:49:50 +0000 UTC]

gah! don't explode underwater! you'll kill all the jellyfish!
ahh yes, that too. I've been trying to add in coloured light sources as much as I can recently since I've found a way to do them which I like

NinRac In reply to chicinlicin [2011-08-01 16:52:20 +0000 UTC]

But the explosion mess would be cleaned up in a jiffy. wouldn't have to clean up after me this time

Ah...sounds like a good reason and good way of doing so

A very well done remake and this is the first time i see you use this sort of body type, bravo on the update it is very nice and well done, i like the subtle details such as the bubbles. The jellyfish is great too.

yeah, I've never really done any characters like this, but now I'm drawing pretty much all my characters with a body type similar to this (though I need to get around to finishing them or uploading the sketches). Thank you again
