Artist Comment

Hello Minitokyo, it's been a while.

Started this right after "To find your flower", so it's actually the only thing I drew in almost 3 years (drawing a little every now and then, and starting from scratch countless times).

Original with 0.5 mechanical pencil on a 65x50cm grainy paper so I had to scan it in 6 times and have fun in PS. Quality is crap but I may post a closeup later.

A lot of inspiration over the years, but no ref used. I could write a book about this but I would rather hear what you feel about the pic on its own, feel free to ask/critic/etc...

Dedicated to all those who said I would never finish it, and to those around here who still remember me :) .

PS: feel free to use as wallpaper, but do not post anywhere else. Thank you!

EDIT: Thanks a lot for the highlight, it seems original art gets a lot more attention here than it used to :) .
I posted some details shots and personal thoughts on the picture on my userpage for those interested.

Highlighted

Chosen by Chloe and fireflywishes

GaiJiN makes a powerful comeback with this stunning piece of art. The shading and attention to detail is of a very high caliber, which sets it apart from the rest of the gallery. One of the few pieces in the doujinshi gallery that can be labelled as "flawless". Keep up the outstanding work!

    Whoa I must go with what Revan said. Until I've seen this it has now made me see an impression on doujinshi from Mt. I mean the details are just crazy and insane. X_X It's something that I would consider a flawless art.

    This is really something that would inspired people. A definate fave and highlight. :D

  4. Jormungand Jun 07, 2007

    Whoa you actually completed this piece XD
    As everyone said, it's truly an amazing artwork. Beautiful drawing, great definition of textures and crazy details.
    Even the full view here doesn't show the real quality of the details... like I only noticed her glassy eyes and teardrops after viewing the close up shots... and the beautifully drawn expression
    Definitely flawless and inspiring

    No praise nor commentary could express your degree of professionalism through this piece. I am utterly stunned.

  15. nostyle118 Jun 08, 2007

    my god.

    hands down, the best doujin I ever saw in MT.

  16. Zefie Jun 08, 2007

    so beautiful work ~ really like the concept and composition is looking really well planned. the way you didn't put the character right in the middle of the work is very nice because now she leaves space for the background to get attention too and not just make you focus for the character. composition is balanced looking even though the character isn't in the middle since you made more parts of ruins to be seen and the old tree on the left side to give counterbalance for the character's side of the drawing. ruins are overall done really well and with the pond and the old tree it gives nicely magical and fantasy like feeling for the atmosphere but at the same time little bit mysterious since you can't tell why the building got at the state where it is now. only thing which little bit bothered me is the the floor where the girl is standing since it looks maybe little too slanting when you compare it to the positioning of the stairs ~ but then again when there is growing plants under the floor it gives the feeling that the ground has rised up, so it looks just fine :) character is very pretty and her outfit has nice fantasy like design. shading brings all the folds and wrinkles out nicely and looking natural. her hair is shining neatly because of the highlights in it, but the wing things from her back are confusing little the part where her hair is floating in the air. colouring is wonderfully done, shadings and lighting is neat and clear ~ which makes it easy to follow the lines and shapes. overall great work and thank you for sharing !

  21. lthnadml Jun 08, 2007

    This is magnificent work! o_0 beautiful details. Thank you so much for sharing it. XD XD XD

  22. Anjhurin Jun 09, 2007

    Holy cow... i'd never thought i'd see a doujin with 2+ pages of comments almost 100 favs... ahah, me commenting seems useless now, but i'll still give my two cents (and add a fav as well ^_^').
    Hum... but now that i actually look at the piece... i can't find anything to say. It's really powerful, displaying a huge amount of skill and details.

    Perfect art ! I put that one in my "uberfav" category, that was created just now...

  23. kuroimisa Retired Moderator Jun 09, 2007

  24. kayurachan Retired Moderator Jun 09, 2007
