I love the way you do stone textures. What do you use? It looks like watercolour or really soft pencils.

Why not title this exquisite picture "Guardian" it encompasses everything from above, and (I hope it was not said already and I missed it) its obvious she is guarding the door.

TheOneLordofDork In reply to TheOneLordofDork [2007-02-05 03:02:14 +0000 UTC]

Or, you could call it "Behind the Door," To make people wonder what she is guarding. Hushing up now.

I had to admit, I think the wee dragon is my favourite, though the gargoyles (is that what they are?) on either side of the door come a close second

Wenchworks [2006-09-05 02:51:38 +0000 UTC]

This is a very different look for you--dark, and very un-anime. The textures in the background are really neat. I love how they're stylized and exagerated.

I’m a lover of water color myself, though I don’t use it as often as I once did, it dose my heart good to see artists still using the traditional medium. You’ve got such a masterful hand with them, I really love this picture. Everything just looks so perfect that I can’t even point out a favorite part to it.

Amazing! Very original, I like her face, she looks very dangerous and powerful (and she has a great dress!). Awesome dragon too, I like to see even small dragons. The door is very detailed, looks almost real to me... you made a masterpiece reproudicing the wood. Great, it is very gorgeous!

MeredithDillman In reply to PetalofSea [2006-08-08 17:47:11 +0000 UTC]

I did have reference for the door It's from a local church. I changed some of it to combine it with the window design and iron bars on another door.

I'm so glad I finally did something you guys don't think is cute!
