Description Some fan art for Lily of the Valley over at Zuda Comics. Really cool stuff. Check out the comic if you haven't. It is totally free. So that is awesome. Here is the link [link]

The creator/artist is on DA so check him out

Piece is all digital in photoshop. I am trying to learn to paint, so this is a little bit of a variation from my usual comic stuff. I really admire concept artist, so I want to learn some of their techniques.

Time was about 4 hours. I setup it up so it could be a desktop if you want to download it.

So ethereal! I thought of Ophelia immediately -- and that was before I realized that the things floating around her were pill bottles. Her face is so peaceful, I didn't understand what was happening til I read the comments. The contrast of her pale face with the dark water is nice, and the shape of her floating hair is well done.

Thanks so much. It is based on a really interesting comic. A violent comic, so I wanted to do something peaceful to contrast the actual comic. The hair was a pain

Wow man. Looking awesome!

I'm not that huge a Lily's fan, but I guess she deserves a little more love. I shall read the whole stuff again sometime soon.. x)

Thanks.

I've been really bad with keeping up with the Zuda comics lately. I even fell behind on Celadore. Zuda needs like a subscription notification service or something.

This looks really spectacular - I love the coloring on it. The floating pill bottles are uber-creepy.

Lily's great, ain't she? I like the flowy hair and floaty pills.
