Description 'I am a little bat, flitting thru the night, tell me your troubles, they go no further as I'm a little bat, and little bats tell no tales... '

Won third place in 's Little Bat contest.

This has been sitting half finished on my hard drive for awhile now because I've been so freakin' busy I haven't had time to finish it! But here it is, as I promised!

When reading the description for the contest and *Amazonofexeter 's preferred genres of art, being the suck that I am I thought about how to combine these elements and when being presented with 'bats', 'faeries', and 'gothic' as topics, the first thing that popped into my head was a succubus. Now what's hysterical about this is having decided to use a stock image of myself because I would make a HORRIBLE succubus. (You think I may be insulting myself but I'm serious. I once had a director tell me to strike a 'sexy' pose and all I could do was stare at him blankly until he told me exactly what to do!)

But anywhos, I still think this came out pretty neat. The stock set that this image came from also happens to be my most favourite set I've ever modeled for, so I was glad I was able to use it!

Wow amazing job! The blending of the model into the background is seamless. A feat that is hard enough as it is. My favorite part of this picture is the attention paid to depth of field. The blured out brush in the foreground really draws your eye toward the center and is a true mark of a skilled artist.

*Giggles at the description* I think youd do fine as a succubus and if you need pointers on striking sexy poses i can give you a few pointers. >.>...... <.<......

*Whispers*
An anchient secret passed down by the Forsythe Elders of my family say that a Kilt and Sexy Coat will summon sexy spirits to aid you in any sexy pursuit. So when next attempting a pose of sexiness just wear those two things.

Also as a warning, there are a few beings that will see you as Microsoft founder Bill Gates.

*Still has no idea where that came from*

Hehe! Thank you! I'm so glad you like it! ^.^ Don't worry, if I ever need help striking a sexy pose, I'll be sure to give you a call, as you are the only person I know who owns both a kilt AND Sexy Coat!

Yeah...seriously...when was the last time they saw Bill Gates wearing a kilt? O_o

*ponders* I think he did once... When he was golfing or trying to sport that im a rich nerd look.

Hey if you ever need to borrow the sexy coat, you punch the seven numbers that spell Tom and its yours. With collateral of course and well the address of your mother and father. After that its good as gold.

Its been pretty good. A LOT of working. I was working from when I got back everyday (except Christmas) up through New Years. I'm on vacation down at Maryland at the moment. Its so nice to be able to sleep in for once!
