Smexy Ninja!

Little know fact, through training wolves can defy gravity, true facts! XD

I love love love this, such a beautiful design on the character and the background and the overall asthetic.... also helps that im a bit of a whore for traditional chinese architecture heh

In-cred-ible
Pink cherry blossoms...been while since I had any of that in a garden of mine. Maybe next year I will plant a few trees to change this.

Wonderful colours, garb, pose and expression.

J'adore!

yeah, if someone kick like that, it will brake her ankle

I think both the character and the background look great! ^^

I really love the colors and shading for this! The background came out great, especially that building :p Her eyes and braid are really cool too

lol i like mings hair styl as well but ming happens to be a guy. ^^

oh sorry! XD i'm not very observant.

lol its okay, like all artist i told to make ming look female as possible. That no matter how many ties someone look at him they're first and last impression is they always think he female. lol even his voice sounds female.

Beautiful :D

Practictioner of the strongest style :B

Loving your new coloring style :D <3

oh my god this is amazing. This is probably one of my favorites by you ;w; The pose and lighting and the bg are all just amazing!

So much detail. Beautiful. <3

Ooo beautiful piece...

Awesome !! Details and background are amazing, and the "pose" (in the air ^^) Really good !

very nice! i like it :)

That is just beautful.
Im gonna have to fav up to commission you for this type of comsh.
-Claps- Very detailed, perfect antomy, just too awesome.

The colors in this are beautiful!

Great detail on it.

*also sucks at backgrounds* Nyo~orn

N-not that you suck. *insert foot in mouth* -_-'''

Wow this is incredible, I love the way you've used colors, lights and darks and line art width to portray the scene

Backgrounds give me some trouble as well, but this is astounding , so I dont know why you may or may not feel so great about it. Your attention to detail with this is lovely. Did you use any references? Cause honestly its downright beautiful.

Yeah, I used plenty of references, but all of 'em had to be somewhat modified for the pic XP I really wish I could have put more detail into the building in the background, but I always worry about putting too much detail in the background which then detracts from the character... There's so much I still have to learn where backgrounds are concerned. I also have a way harder time with perspective when drawing on the computer than when drawing traditionally >_<

I think there is a right amount of detail here for the background that does not detract from the character. ^.^

And odd, i would figure it would be the other way around based off of traditional to computer. Things are easier for me on the computer then on paper.

Well i love it and i thank you, i posted it on my Gallery and hopes dont mind. I look foward commissioning you in future sometime. Most likely for singles lol

Everybody likes Kung fu fightin!!!

Demi strikes just as fast as lightnin!!!

When shes pissed its frightnin!!!

Shell grip your throat then tighten!!!

x3 hehehehe

I dunno, i think you did a good job on this one. The backgrounds still fun, and sets the picture up well enough, and the character has bright enough colors that it pulls away and draws your eye. Keep up the good work

GOD DAMN, the colouring on this is GORGEOUS!
If you don't mind me asking (I've been curious since the first), how exactly does the process for this differ from your regular styled pieces? Are you able to bypass steps that make it more speed efficient for you?

Whatever it is - I must commend you on how you've developed it throughout your beginning "painterly styled" pictures! This truly is the most detailed, eye-popping, and developed of all of them!

AMAZING

Thank you! I'm really glad all this experimentation is starting to pay off XP As for how I've managed to make this more efficient, it completely bypasses any flat colour stages. It's coloured almost completely on a single layer. I do the inks on the top layer, and underneath I fill the background with a colour which I use to set the mood (this was a dark turquoise colour). I paint directly on that layer and just use a separate layer if it's really needed. Otherwise I just add a few overlays here and there as well to add interest or contrast to certain areas. I basically colour this more like I would colour something traditionally... no masking or transparency layers or anything...

I love the pose, but the colours just look so exquisite

WOw, I love all of the motion in this picture. The colors used are beautiful. Great job on everything. Anatomy work as usual is beautiful. :3

You're better at art than I ever will be.
I need to save money for a commissionnnnnnnnnnnnnn

This looks amazing!
All around gorgeous pic.

Wow, you really outdid yourself with this one. I don't know where to begin!

Like, holy crap. I certainly believe there's a psychic link to the world because I have been in the process of a large picture and I can't tell you how many elements between it and this are almost identical in subject and placing. It's creeping me out man e___e please don't think I copied your ideas when I finally post mine.

Also do you accept brush commissions without doing a bg for another artist to color and how much?
