Description Flat out like a lizard drinking at the moment, but here's a commercial piece I just finished off. This one caused me all kinds of grief trying to get her looking right sitting on the shield.
Her expression is because of the new watermark tattoo I've added to her leg Im sure... someone (thanks Tsuyoshi ) found my work being sold on tshirts on some Russian online print site and pointed it out to me.
I know once your arwork is online, its outthere, but Username belodan, whoever you are, making money off other peoples art without asking is kinda douchey!

Your work was stolen!? Lame, when your an artist of your calibur though it is to be expected! Just never quit posting! even though there are jerks, we true fans would had a few bad apples to spoil it for the rest of us anyways, as for this work, its awesome! though I recall her cutting off her metalic panties thingy before I feel robbed its magically back

This is a different pair. First ones got cut in the aforementioned sword sheathing accident, next ones got left in the wash too long and rusted and now she's down to her third and final pair. Time for a trip to the blacksmith for another miniskirt it would seem!

I avoid sitting on edges like that myself, for all the obvious reasons! Cheers mate.

No problemo I enjoy every bit of your works, you brush without a flaw (and never I get how you do it, although I've seen the how-to-s you've put up )

Don't worry about watermarks, your works deserve them, being stolen happens to the best.

Her and Viking Ken had taken some much needed vacation time to pillage and loot up and down the coast line.

In the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, you can find an account of the first Viking landing in England: "It happened that they were not friendly," writes one monk, an early master of British understatement, "and they slew folk."

Beautiful work man! Happy to see she made a return!

But yeah, that totally sucks when douche bags take your art!!

Loopydave In reply to VinRoc [2010-01-31 03:02:31 +0000 UTC]

She's glad to be back too, but obviously less than pleased at being asked to sit on such a sharp edge and holding heavy metal weaponary!
Thanks man!
