I'm working on character profiles for my screenplay/manga series Flock of Ravens. I discovered that it's a lot easier to convey the character's personality if you dram him/her holding an object of some sort (since no two people will ever hold something the same way). It might not work for everyone, but I think it's a good method... and it makes the image more interesting >_> Anyway, when I uploaded the inked version of this (now in my scraps), I said I was going to do a huge full background with this image... and I still am. But this is the character profile piece, which is all I originally intended to do. Now that all of that is cleared up, here's the character information:

Name: Vivian de Moy
Born: 895*
Died: 908*

Background: She is a quiet, cold-hearted ghost that lingers in the cemetery inside O’shyild Forest. Vivian was the child of a woman accused of witchcraft and her spirit has been sealed away in her mother’s paintings, preventing her from resting. (13 years old)

The poem I used is "The Same," written in 1783 by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. You can find it here: [link]

Brushes and textures are not mine. The texture is by and the brushes are possibly from Celestial Star... I can't remember >_>;;

This is my first real painted image, so I'm looking for critique/suggestions... anything ;_; Right now, I'm very happy with the image, but I know I'll look at it a couple days from now and hate it...

*About the dates, everything is set in a fantasy world, which has its own timeline/intricate history n' all.
