The hand and the eyes draw you into the picture that you fell in you heart and soul.

Oh Devlin, this is really good. You finally finished :0 The painting is so smooth and nice. I really like the colours too and her avatar eyes are quite sinister. The use of red in her hair, wings and bodice is very effective. Nice atmosphere too. I await to see what you do next! :0

You have no idea. I had so many color issues with this while it was being developed.

I 'tried' to make it a little bit blue, but most of it came out white anyway. Oh well~! It's supposed to be 'alabaster white', so I guess that's a good thing.

I'm.. really hoping that wasn't sarcasm, because my heart actually skipped a few when you said that.

I was in a state of thinking, "Oh gawd, I'm punching out more crap than ever. I haven't grown at all." Thanks for changing my mind, you handsome devil, you.

Nope. Completely serious. I've seen a lot of progression in your work!

And, this handsome devil is currently available, so look him up when you're in San Antonio!
