Description
So this picture was started when I was taking a break from other works in progressβ¦ (Yes, I'm terribly inefficient like that... I like to start things, but I have extreme difficulty finishing them or getting them past the "very rough sketch" phase.) I was in the mood to do another "color experiment" piece that involved a lot of hair, but as often happens, working on this was more fun than the other thing I had, so I ended up finishing.Itβs suppose to be a mermaid, but I was to lazy to add in the bottom half so you can't see the tail. I guess it can technically be any sort of human now. Any sort of human that's green, that is. ^_^
I apologize if the text appears messy and/or cheesy. I thought the text effects in the opening scene of Final Fantasy VIII were beautifully done, and I was going for that here. I have a non-text version, but I'm sort of hoping that the textiness will detract people from thieving and editing it for their own purposes without asking.
Oh, and this was done in a 50-50 mixture of Photoshop and Painter. XD

The colours are simply amazing and I have no problems with the text, although you could have changed it a little bit more in comparison to FF.

Yeah, the ff font was a bit different, now that you mention it. ^_^ Glad you like this!
