This is so striking,in color an in mood. (it doesn't hurt than my favorite color is pink lol) I like the line the sword makes for the composition. It really ties in the full shape of the skirt of her gown.

Thank you so much! This is very pink haha. Glad you like the sword, I was trying to make the triangle composition..thinger... Cant remember the proper term. But when in doubt composition wise, triangle!

Hey there! After your lovely comment, I just had to drop by and see what sort of deviant you were - and your gallery is awesome~ It was surprising to see no comments had been left on this one yet; it's lovely. So I'd like to return the favor c:

As far as the sketch goes, you've done a wonderful job with the flow of the fabric and hair. I like how it looks like there's a soft breeze in the backdrop. The expression on her face is also vivid - she seems strong, but like she's suffering at the same time. Her hand holding the skull looks fine, though perhaps go back and check over the arm holding the sword - the forearm/wrist area needs a little bit more contour, but that's really the only thing that I see. That area tends to be troublesome for me, so I usually have to ref it

The cool tones in the coloring are really nice as well, and I like how her dress gradually becomes darker until the hem, where it's stained with blood. Really adds nicely to the concept you have going on.

This character seems really interesting; is Alice an OC of yours? I'd be curious to see what else she's in, if so Nice work, here!

Thank you so much, returning the comment wasnt necessary but its much obliged!

Im glad you like/noticed all the little things, it makes them all feel worth while. Wrists and really hands in general are the bane of my existence. I went out and bought a hand model after making this (woohoo coupons!) so hopefully Ill be able to fix that in the future!

Ahhh! Im glad you noticed that! Most people miss the bloodied hem, and just think its an ombre dress! thats so wonderful to hear!

She is indeedy! Shes the main character of a series Im going to hopefully power out this summer, but I have a few older pages for now. heres the first one: flamingbubbles.deviantart.com/… I dont think anyone has said her name yet, but shes the only female thus far haha

Sorry for the late reply!

You're welcome~ seriously though, your art deserves more love! 

Yeah, hand models are good, and I like to take pictures of my hands when I need a really specific pose or angle. I even get my hubs to forcibly volunteer when I need to XD But yeah, the bloodied hem was a really big draw for my eye. I also take a lot of time to observe art because I hate missing out on the really cool details; it's fun to look for the parts that the artist put a lot of time and effort into.

And cool, I'll look into it! You seem pretty awesome, too, so - *+watches*

Thank you! As does yours! 

I went out and bought one after you suggested that. Hahaha, maybe I should find a nice hand model hubby as well! Very true, its a shame so many people miss those often, they can really make the picture! 

Screeeeee! Thank you so much!
