Description [link] ---lovely wallpapered version!

=HellsPenne requested me to do a picture of 'something with wings' and of a girl with black hair with another colour in it. Anyway, yes, lots of wings!

It's a bit light, but whatever! ^^

Oh, and if you recognise the wings on the faerie, there based on a real butterfly, not that I know what it's called.

That's all I have to say, enjoy.

---EDIT--- Uploaded a better quality JPEG, the quality of the last one was awful!!

Very nice!! I like the closer version, you can see so much more detail. Her hair is just so beautiful, and her face reminds me of Faeries in illustrations of old fairy tales. Great work!

Thanks! I like the closer version better too, but the wallpaper was a present for my sister, and I didn't want her to take up loads of room, mabye it could of been a bit bigger now I come to think about it!

Another comment, and a fave, thank you so much!! I've just checked out your gallery too, you have some really beautiful artwork, especially the CCS drawing, I'm a CLAMP fan as well.

Wow, I'm honored an artist like yourself likes my stuff. Domo!! *bowX1,000* Oh man, no problem, I LOVED this one, I've got this thing for butterflies recently, and I loved those colors! Thanks a lot for checkin' out my page!

Your welcome, though I've got miles to go before I'm actually happy with my drawings! I've got a thing for butterflies at the moment too, it's scaring me, I'm going all girley!!

BentKatana In reply to TheDeathSpiralli [2006-04-27 20:55:10 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I'm often not happy with my drawings, either. ()-.- I'm not very good at anatomy. I know, I've got this new butterfly thing, I was thinking the same thing; can it be my female hormones are taking over? -lol-
I like your drawings very much, btw.

I feel even worse about my drawings now, I put something on last night, and everyone's picking at the same bit that I got wrong, It really gets to me, even when I know people are only trying to be helpful...

I used to be really terrible with anatomy, and I still havn't got it right! All I can say is that I think it just takes loads of practice, and making sure everyone is the right hight, doing the '7 1/2 heads tall' thing.

...and thank you, I feel a bit better now!

Oh, those people just say those things 'cause they're jealous. >.> I can't STAND IT when people try and tell other people how to draw when they don't ask for it, I mean, drawing is the expression of one's soul, and you can't correct that! > Damn...anyways...YOU'RE ANATOMY'S DAMN GOOD @@ I showed this to my mom and she was like, "Wow " -lol- I know, I gotta work on my anatomy, too, my friend urplesinger: tried showing me before how to do the 7 heads thing, I don't know what the hell. @@ -lol- But keep on drawing, it takes time, ya know? And you definately have talent!
I'm so honored YOU faved one of my pictures, they're crap compared to this! [and many other things on here ()^^ -lol-] Thank you do much!

Aww, thank you so much! ...and I'm glad your mum liked my pic! I would love to say people say those things because the're jelous, however, I'm not that good yet!!

I think If I were you, I'lld seiously learn the body proportions and counting in heads, it's a very good way to make sure everything's in proportion. There should be loads of tutorials on the net, and there are loads of good books on anatomy too if you really want to master it.

...And it's not suprising that I faved one of your pics, you're really good, and I wish I had the guts to do fanart, I've just always been afarid I'lld ruin the poor char!

This reply is so late, sorry about that! ^^

Oh gosh, I don't care, I take so long replying and commenting sometimes, it's so embarassing for me. ()-.- [even though most people could care less, I don't know why it bothers me so much ()@@ Ugh...]
So the counting heads thing really works, huh? Damn, my friend's been telling me that for years now. -lol- I should give that a shot. Yeah, I needs to get a book on anatomy, my friend Hoshi has a good one, I should ask if I can borrow it sometime *thinks* ...you should definately do fanart, that'd be sweet! I like your art, 'tis pret-tay. ^o^ Domo, I'm so honored you think I'm alright at this art stuff. *bow*

Ah good! I dread signing into DA after being away for days, I know there'll be a huge stack of deviations and stuff, so I put it off, but I don't know why, there'll only be more building up if I don't!

The counting heads thing really does work, I never used it when I was younger, and now when I look back at all my very old drawings I think 'god, their so short/tall!' ...I promised myself in the new year that I would get over my reciculous 'fear' of ruining charictors and do some fanart, though I'm not sure when that'll be, and what it will be of, (I'm definatly not attempting Zelda just yet!) I was thinking mabye something CLAMP, but I'm not sure yet!

Oh yeah, maybe try doing Chi from Chobits? She's not that hard, that'd be cute! Just a thought. -lol- I know, I do the same thing, I had 61 messages this morning, mostly deviations! @@ I feel bad I didn't comment on them all, sometimes I just pick and choose which ones sound good. I know that's a rotten thing to do. ()-__- *ashamed*
Sure, you'd be great at drawing fanart! *makes mental note to count heads next time*

TheDeathSpiralli In reply to BentKatana [2006-05-07 10:01:14 +0000 UTC]

Ah good, glad it's not just me, I was beginning to feel guilty! Sometimes it's hard to comment on people who submit several deviations per day, espically trying to make your comments not sound the same all the time!

I was thinking of drawing Chi, but all that hair and lace scares me! I suppose I could give it a go, poor Chi is going to be deformed!!

Aw, you'll do great, Spiralli-sama! Yeah, sometimes it's just overwhelming. @@ But sometimes I get a little ticked-you know, like, if someone leaves a comment on one of my pictures or my page, I ALWAYS comment on their page and usually some of their pictures. I mean, it just seems like the thing to do, you know? Well, I haven't recieved nearly as many comments as I've given, for some reason, that ticks me off. ()-.- Not to sound like a jerk here, I think I've commented on everyone who's commented on me, I probably missed some people, sorry to those people! ()^^ But ya know what I mean? I feel like I'm leaving all these comments and it doesn't matter. -lol- But now and then you comment on someone like yourself who writes back and even FAVS *'s you -lol-*, so it's worth it, ya know?

TheDeathSpiralli In reply to BentKatana [2006-05-10 10:33:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know where your coming from... I don't mind it too much when you comment on someone else's picture and they thank you, but it does seem a bit rude when they don't even reply... I don't think it's uncommon to give more comments then you recieve though, you can tell when you look at most people's pages, unless your one of those super-popular people who have millions of pageviews!

Yeah, you're right, sorry about that lil' rant, it musta been one a those days, ya know? -lol- I don't care if people don't comment on my page or not, I mean, whatever, you know? But sometimes...I dunno, like, if you comment on someone's whole gallery and they don't even comment on your page, it's like, "Alright, thanks " -lol- I know that's corny, this is only the internet ()-.- I guess I just feel so compelled to comment on evwery diviation I look at for more than a second, or else I feel like a complete bitch. Hasta be the OCD. *sigh* -lol- I know, Jesus, some people's page views are like OMGs!!

Lol, have you been to =snapesnogger 's page? ...So many pageviews!!! I must admit though, I care more about getting comments then pageviews, because they can actually help y'know? so I suppose I don't worry about it too much...

Oh, and in case you haven't seen my journal entry, my computer's going wrong, so I might not be on for a while, which is why it's taken me this long to reply to you! So sorry in advance if it takes me even longer next time... Hopefully it won't last too long...

Oh, no problem, my old computer had the flu, too. *pats it* Poor thing. I hope it feels better soon...lol, yeah, I think I've seen some of her stuff, I've definately heard of her, she's hilarious. I mean, just her name, you know? -lol- Yeah, that shit doesn't matter, sorry I went all nutty on you, I really don't care about that stuff. I get kinda nuts sometimes, sorry. ()^o^ I hope your computer gets better soon! And no problem about the reply, whatever, you know?

Lol, I love the way you say 'ahh, poor thing!' about your computer when it doesen't work, I just wanted to take a hammer to mine!! Stupid thing gets no symphathy from me! And, don't worry, you didn't really 'go nuts' on me, pageview do matter, I mean, if I had 10 pageviews I would be thinking 'what the hell's wrong with me?!', I'm just not one of those people who continulessly stalk everyone demanding they visit my gallery!

Yeah, me, neither, I just like to talk to people. -lol- I talk too much. ()^^ I just feel like someday, when computers take over the world, mine right remember that sometimes I said nice things to it, and maybe it can convince the army's leader to not destory mankind. Although, it will always remember the bad things I said to it, so it probably won't work out very well. ()-__- Damn...
Oh yeah, I didn't think I did a lot, I just thought of you when I posted that and I was like, " Oh man! Lol!! ()^^"
