You are the flower, I'm the rainby *Shattered-Earth

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Fantasy

You are the air that I breathe
Without you I am incomplete
You are the only one for me

Original print for Otakon inspired by the song Redline Day From the anime movie Redline. It was based on this sketch which was for a sketch a day thing, omg so many seperate origins XD! I kind of like the sketch better though /sob

I put this on critique requested, but there are mistakes/intentional distortions that I want to point out too (so there's no need to repeat them unless you disagree lol). The wings first of all, are not accurate to life at all. The pose was already messed up from the sketch so i just went all out for stupid-anime wing anatomy. The dress I didn't know how to do right :/ It was originally going to be just a flower type dress, but then i thought it would be cool to make it look like dirty brass, but i just didn't do a very good job polishing it up. The black hair girl's right arm is also weird too.. just.. weird <_<.. hell i'm sure all the arms are weird! In retrospect i should have removed the white hair girl's boob completely too LOL, spines don't work that way >_> <_< (geez maybe i should edit this before final prints eh LOL)

Purchasable as as a print from here: [link]

Just to start, I would like to say I like this piece a lot

The vision is overall exceptional

The lines are smooth and the back round is neat. I feel the picture is a bit crowded, and that certain things were squeezed in. Also, I feel the lighting is a bit strange. The lighting is more unnatural, more direct on the two character's faces.

Originality is fantastic. I have yet to see a piece like this one. Your association of feathers and a water-droplet back round is unique.

Technique is exceptional as well. Like I said before, the lighting/shading seemed a bit unnatural. As much as I like the back round, I feel it should either be a much darker color, or a much lighter color.

Does this impact me? Yes, very much

This picture promotes a connection, a support system between two. You did a very nice job conveying this.

What do you think?

Fantastic piece. The colors are gorgeous, how they emerge into warm from cool, focusing our attention on the subject, and you've worked in just the right amount of subtle texture. The anatomy looks fine to me, particularly the gestures of the hands and the back of the upper figure (black-hair's right arm looks good to me, btw). The negative shapes created by the arms also do some great things for the image. The only thing about the wings that bugs me is that they do seem a bit stuffed into the frame, but I understand the compositional choice you made there, to frame the action. I think you could have made them curve more, out then back in, and achieved the same result with a bit more elegance. But that's really the only minor issue I see in an otherwise wonderful piece.
