wow great work!. i think you did really great job on shading, bg, details. good pose, and i also like her dress. at first i didn't recognize her as sakura, but i think thats good because this shows your own style, which i think is very artistic
+fav. keep up the good work ^^

Wow you have some absolutely gorgeous work! the shading is very gorgeous! The whole picture stands out!

What can I say but lovely

Remarcable artwork! The shadows are very well done and the character very gorgeous!

Dats really good I wanna post my drwings but no scanner!:(

As always, you do everything to perfection ! I love the shading and the dress design is wonderful! Keep up the awsome drawing. A fav for sure.

Amazing job! ^^ I really like the whole composition of this piece. Her pose is really nice, and I love her expression and her hair. You did a great job with the foldings of her dress and the shading work you did is amazing, great work ^_~ I love the back with the sun and moon. The ground is very well done too and the amount of detail is great. Great work! ^^

oh, I love the shading, it really stands out! You did a wonderful job =3

nice shading and keep up the good work

dang! this is really nice! i love the details and i love the shading! awesome job! +fav

Very beautiful. The shading looks perfect too. =)

Wow, really nice job zephryn! Lol, she does look older... Nice job on the shading and all the little details on her dress! Quite an awesome piece of artwork... Keep it up!

Cool nice work with the dark shading. You didn't used just pencil in the background did you?
I agree she looks older and actually she looks more realist than in the cartoon.
Love the dress and her eyes

ooooooooooo! did you draw that?! :O holy! good job! i like it! woot woot!

Zephryn,you're one of the most under-appreciated and respected artist on this site.Ever since I first laid eyes on your work is has always been of high quality unrenowned here on or any other site because you're one of the few artist I have seen here who use charcoal and lead pencils to create such magnificent work,and this is on exception in that regard.I promise you this,the next time you submit something here,I'm going to make sure you get the credit and attention that you should have been getting.

Wow! This is really gorgeous! I'm always envious of those who can draw because I can't. The shading is wonderful, and you took Sakura and made her look your own way, which shows off your creativity and style. Great job! *wonders why this isn't in the Elite gallery and faves*

Really a great drawing... I still wonder how you can draw and shade so well... I'm a newb besides you I love the sun and moon in the back. And the shading of Sakura's dress is great... My only comment is that, although I know you made her look older on purpose, I don't really like it (Sakura and older-looking just don't fit well together in my mind) Still, well done!

OMG, AngelKate is right, it's weird that this isn't in the elite gallery O_O

This is really awesome! U did a great job, ur very talented! And all of this was done by hand?! Wow!

aww i love the shadding and detail put into it! good job..=]
