Description Part of the sides got cut off on this one. I made it wider than my scanner.

Iraira's finally using her arm thingy right. that's where EGs put their sashes. She uses it mainly to hold up that sleeve, but meh.

I messed up the inking, which is why there's white paint on Iraira's arms. I messed 'em up bad. >:

Edit - I messed around with Iraira's arms, trying to make the paint less noticeable. I also added more shading to her left sleeve--it was a bit lighter than the other.

I also noticed in the bottom-right, the one blue orb thingy is off. It doesn't line up with the one on the other side. Too late to fix that now.

Inked with Micron pens ( which suck. I killed 3 of them. Bastards. I need better pens. ), colored with Prismacolor colored pencils. Highlights done with white acrylic pant.

Kalare and Iraira are © me, *SilentNeko .

I wish I had even a fraction of your skill...in coloring, composition...everything.

This piece is very well put together and is not overwhelming or busy, but rather invites the eye to wander all over, and each time mine do, I notice some other small detail I missed the time before.

Superb.

Thank you!

Details take me a long time. They're worth the result in the end, though. I love busy drawings.

Wow, that is epic. The composition is really well done and makes it looks like it could be a tarot or other type of card. And I like the unique placement of the horns on the creature in the background.

Despite having little patience, I found this one to be a joy to color. Especially the bottom parts of the design. :3

Thank you!

Amazing!!! *I will say again!! I LOVE the blue tones!!!*
UAU!! The design is simply fantastic! The background really gives a strong and powerful design to the piece!
The orange makes a nice contrast with the blue tones.

Must fave

Thank you! I usually gripe and groan about coloring Kalare way too blue ( she's got white fur, except for that blue stripe coming down her eye and off her face ) but I always shade her with blue. She just looks good with it. Plus, I had an excuse to shade her like this--she's coming out of the dark.

Oh yes. The inking and sketching alone probably took more time than the coloring. Unless I was just unaware of the time while coloring, which happens.

Kalare's insanely fun to draw, although her horns always give me trouble...well, the crazy loopy-type ones do, anyways.

I sketched half of the foreground/design stuff and then flipped and lightboxed it, since I'm HORRID at symmetrical things.

The bulk of time I spent on it was actually drawing it out and inking it. I thought coloring would take me forever. XD

Yay! Thanks!

The details killed my hand. >: And Microns piss me off. But they dry fast, and I don't smudge as often.
