This is Artemis, *Chuuchichu's beautiful ice bird boy! I had been wanting to spam patterns and details for a while, and found the perfect opportunity. I really wanted to spam 10x more details (jewelry, more patterns, etc etc) but my damaged shoulder can only handle so much.
Commissioned artwork; no critiques please. I don't want the flaws spelled out in front of my client ;~;
I'm happy with:
~the overall values and color scheme. Usually I have to do a lot of color and value/contrast tweaking before I'm even reasonably satisfied. With this picture, there was almost none of that.
I'm okay with:
~all the leeway I gave myself with the lighting. A careful observer will notice quite a few places where the lighting behaves differently than it would IRL. I'm fine with that, as the overall piece feels right to me.
Yes, his hair and wings have a color gradient to them. Aren't they pretty
Prints MAY be available later.

Sadly, I don't think any of my art would elicit the third response from myself. ;; Must work harder~!
oh pff i've seen some awful book covers. u o u;
but i'd feel the same about my art. haha
yiissss we both will work harder! high5
the composition of the piece is definitely book cover like.. plenty of space for text and the colors would make the book pop out from the rest! *v*
I just thought it was a girl until I read it's a boy x)
And amazing work with the lighting
You're welcome
Those patterns and the light and shadows. °Д °
