Wow, I cant belive I didnt post this before.. must have slipped my mind. Here is the description quoted from my DA page

"Okay, this peice is a gift art for a friend who got me into Dream Of Doll ([link]). It shows one of her characters Felicia-Val (find her on DA here..[link] ) holding her doll and my manga avatar Evangline with my doll. If you would like to see my actual doll view here here : [link] Anyhow, I said something to my friend that made her upset and she wont talk to me and this is sort of a very long in the coming apology.

Okay, some things about the picture.... Someone commented on my previous picture that it was too cluttered with all the half tone shading, so for this one I attempted to avoid using tone for shading effects.. the only place where tone was used to shade was on the bushes. Instead I used hatching lines and highlights. I eched the tone on the bushes with a parallel lines ruler on the bushes to create the impression of light shining down. This is also my first real attempt at a proper background. Perspective rulers were used to create the walls and I had to do a bit of research to decide how to draw the trees. The leaves were quite time consuming but I think they turned out wonderfully. I also experimented a little bit with texture and pattern tones on this one, with the stone effect on the wall and plaid pattern on the tie and skirt. Also I dropped a computone background in instead of etching my own clouds like on Unsung Hero of Black Mesa. I also tried to recreate an ocean effect I spotted in a manga with white lines on a falt color tone, but Im not sure Im happy with how it turned out...
