Squibbit: Right! *laugh*
I'm interested making two-sided characters, often they look scary and grotesque, but it's the sympathy I'm after.. So that's why I asked about the Evilness :)

Prasa: Thanks! I'm glad you like it so much!

Really nice image. I especially like the vertical canvas lines that flow through the picture. The ambient lighting is very well done, and the figures are well-executed. The wings on the fairy figure are a particular favorite of mine. Great work on the background/foreground as well. Nice detail and pespective all the way back to the skyline. Excellent stuff!

The scenery looks awesome! That grass, the way it fades into the background - just wonderful. That glowing sky is nice too.

The characters are lovely (well, don't know if "lovely" is the word for the evil guy heh), the only thing that looks slightly out of place to me are the wings on the faerie figure, but then again there was a comment above that it was a favourite feature, so I guess thats just personal taste :). Beautiful work.

What a wonderful piece!

I keep imagining that there is actually soft rain falling across the picture. The very, very delicate lines leading downwards play a trick on my senses, it's awesome!

The character designs are brilliant and I love your use of colour. Spectacular piece, over all.

Urrgos, thank you so much! I like how the wings came out too, took a lot of layers and experiments :)

Elsie: Much appreciated :)
I had a gloomy, little poetic background on my mind when I started to think about where these two are living.. It's simply great you say that the ogre is lovely!! The key is to set aside the appearance and fear and think about your true feelings and how you confront them and yourself.. I'm terrible at explaining, so I'll stop there :D

Enayla: I'm honoured and pleased you like it!! I'm such a fan of your beautiful style :)
The feeling of rain is interesting, because I only thought about bringing some textures out, but it really looks like a soft rain to me too.
Thanks for commenting Linda, truly appreciated!

Really a very good job, you're so talented, I like specilly the background, the sky looks old painted, and the grass so realistic, deep, all of them give the picture a closer atmosphere.

Sarima: Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it! I was aiming for the feeling on classical, detailed renaissance style in the backgroud and atmosphere, hope I achieved some of that :)
