Description the miniature of this lady is available for purchase here



If you saw the Earth elemental boss, youre probably thinking...uh...this looks like its only 1/20 the detail...

This design was also sketched back in the summer of 2007 (yes...that long ago) along with the fire fairy.

the Boss gave me total freedom on how these elemental bosses can look like, I had elemetal fairies designed for every element in Anima (all 8 of them) but the only other thing my boss asked me to do was, to try not to make everyone of them human shape.

This was why Earth elemental was a dino, (but be sure that you will see a earth fairy later )

It was tough choosing who would have my favorite shape, the humanoid. most epic battle was between water and wind, because on the fairy designs i liked those two the most.

Why and how did the wind preveil? simply because I drew her full sketch first @__@

Now why is she so simple in comparison to the earth one? because I wanted a design which, when you look at it, you can feel the air around it, space to breath (yeah I know, right?) and just over all refreshing like a breeze in May.

Lightnings were not strictly wind elemental, but I thought it was a fun thing to toss in, makes it less boring too, (for me at least XD)

originally there were no crystal balls, it was added to make her more boss like, rather than the original fairy look. The crystal balls each has their uses, but for now, that would be kept as a secret

whew, that was long...

This is stunning! I really adore the clothing details and the aqua colour. It looks so simple, yet complicated at the same time! Sorry, its been ages since I had time to comment anything. T_T Finally wading through some artz0rz instead of clearing my watch center...though I'm more than ready to do that now.

I'd say you pretty much accomplished the feeling a person is supposed to get when you look at this boss ^^ it's very balanced and non-chaotic but even so it has the danger sings OuO

Congrats! I really love your style ^^

The Air/Wind also has impulsive nature right? Maybe you should consider to make her 'Tempest Mode,' her Battle Mode, which possibly enables you to play more with details just as in Earth Boss. After all, it's just an advice

quite nice (:
the lightnings match pretty well with the crystal balls and you did a great job with what you wanted: making it windy and breezy; i can absolutely feel the air around, and thats specially because of her legs' transparency effect...

another excellent job, keep on it

GREAT job. She's gorgeous! I really think it's neat how her legs, as they go down, are semi-transparent. Not to mention the hair is awesomely styled plus amazing color.

Absolutely great job
