Description EDIT: Changed some things, thanks to everyone who commented on this one a few months ago. I got a lot of questions about the woman's missing right arm, so that was priority. Hope you like it!

- added right arm, enlarged her left one
- Composition changed in bottom right corner
- Added more eyes in the three

The original: [link]

This will appear as a spread- poster in the next issue of 'ANiWAY' , a dutch magazine on manga and japanese culture! GO BUY!

this drawing is amazing! I love how you set everything in one specific color and variations of that. It kinda reminds me of a story I was writing long ago ^_^

Those breasts make me feel inadequate, really they do!

And I can't quite see where her right arm is going...


But those I noticed only after I'd gotten over the oooooh-this-is-so-beautiful bit. Love all the non-earth-bound people.

Of course the boobs will stay, she's a goddess and what will she do if she's not making us feel inadequate?

oh my gosh this is so cool! I took a quick look at it then came back and took a closer look and found all these hidden things in the picture, though now i feel kind of blind for not noticing them sooner I really like how the background seems so soft its almost like it just blends in on itself and the characters in the foreground are so solid it gives a real sense of depth to the picture

devur [2006-02-27 16:25:20 +0000 UTC]

Classically amazing, as always. The motifs you use, the coloring, the simplicity. I think the coloring is the most striking feature, actually; not just that it's pink/purple, which makes it seem almost dreamlike, but the way it gets lighter as it comes away from the focus, like an overexposed photograph gives it a surreality that really just comes out and touches you. Beautiful, in every sense of the word, and an *instant* favorite.

Reminds me a ton of one of Miyazaki's films -this is really cool! The sunset color scheme adds a lot to the picture, and it gives me an almost eerie feeling. Mostly cuz of the eyes tho'. All of them staring at me is sort of creeping me out, lol. Anyway, it looks amazing. I especially like the wolf. Great job!

Creepy yet intriguing. It's really pretty, I especially like how I can't look at one place too long, because out of the corner of my eye I see something else! I keep finding new little things hidden throughout the picture. :3 Very fun x3!

Haven't seen much of your works lately.
Nice you're back (I don't normally read journals, so I have no idea if you actually was around all the time).

About the main deity... her left forearm looks too short... when compared to arm or hand. One can blame it on perspective, but it looks weird anyway.
But I like her design, especially with this red-eye glaring thing on her right.
