Artist's Comments

After so long!! :excited: My collab' with ~Ptitukyo has been long in waiting.

Here we have Canuleia Tenrai, the 3rd out of the four Vestals. "Canuleia" refers to one as being "grey", so Canuleia uses a veil to render herself invisible and at the same time, cloud opponents in thick fog -- ideal for escape and gaining the upper hand (??). ^^;

I've been on a long, long hiatus, but here's something to break the spell. I've done the inks way back, but I had a hard time choosing what color to give her armor. I had to change the armor's color twice, change the shade of her hair once and had to do the background about four times until I got what I wanted.

I'm also experimenting trying "quicker" methods for digital coloring... as always, constructive critique and comments are most welcome. :aww:

^^;... methinks the pose, veil and glitters are a little overkill, but what the heck -- I had lots of fun making this one.

wow! It does look like you enjoyed making this one. :XD: I love how the curve of her back contrasts with that of the fabric in the background. And the glitter effects make it look like she's floating amongst the stars... :frail:

Thank you dear. :hug: It's difficult, true, specially that I am using a mouse (too poor to buy a tablet PC :cry:) -- but I intend to buy at least a graphic pad... for Christmas. ^^;
