Hee! It's awesome and truly compliments Wielder's piece!!

Hee, thank you! ^_^

aww, so sweet... :) and a little bit epic. :)

Just a teeny bit, maybe. XDD Thanks!

Beautiful work, she seems to be in deep thoughts.

Very deep indeed. =) She has a lot to think about. Thank you!

A very moving piece and fits perfectly with the last one done by her.

Aww, thanks. ^_^ I tried really hard to make sure it fit.

A beautiful image, and beautiful words to go with them.

Thank you!

You're very welcome. ^-^

Sorry for the lateness on commenting, Zannah!

Thank you so much for doing this! It's so sweet and heartfelt. It's exactly how I think Wielder will feel when it gets to that point in her story. She's never wanted to change Obi-Wan or jeopardize his career in the Order, so she'd more than likely accept the idea that her having his child would be best kept a secret as she knows he'd never be comfortable with letting his child grown up without a father.

I love the prose you wrote with it too. Yet again, it's so spot on. I can't thank you for how much those words really add to the piece.

As for the picture itself, there's a lot of art on this website that deals with pregnancy that just...well, we know what it's for, and it's not celebrating motherhood, the creation of a new life, etc. This picture definitely shows an appreciation for motherhood, and it's so nice to see that.

Thanks again, Zannah. I truly appreciate your kindness.

Aww, no worries! I'm so glad you like it. Whenever I borrow someone's character for gift art, I try really hard to make the scene feel plausible, even if it's something as simple as this. The text just kind of happened as I was finishing up the piece. Hee, I think pregnant pieces are kind of a guilty pleasure for me. I like the idea of pregnancy WAY better than the reality, and they're just fun to draw. But while preggers can be sexy, it shouldn't always be portrayed as a sexual thing. Sometimes naked is just naked. I wanted to focus way more on what she's thinking and feeling than anything else.

Glad you enjoyed it! I like drawing your characters. =D You're a hell of a storyteller, lady!

Janus must be a really big baby!

Have you ever seen a pregnant woman close to term? c.c They look like they're about to explode.

Lol, my sister! Your right, I think its because Ive never really drawn pregnant chars before.

One thing that does stand out is that shes got really thick arms here.

Hmm, they look fairly proportional to me, but I wasn't using a reference, so they might be a little off. =)

Not what I was expecting, but I think you hit a nerve there. Actually made my eyes water a bit. Very touching, not to mention the girl herself is lovely.

Aww, so glad you liked it. =) I have a definite thing for Wielder's characters, and the stories that weave them together.

W - O - W

Hee. =D

I saw this one when you first posted it, but for some odd reason I neglected to comment on it...
There are dozens of questions floating around in my mind after reading/examining this piece, but the beauty of it is that for a few minutes, they really don't matter. For a few minutes, I'm focused on a mother-to-be who looks very pensive and almost somber. It's more than enough to tug at my heartstrings for sympathy.
And, surprisingly, you've chosen to give us a glimpse at Wielder's thoughts here, and I don't think anyone could have written something more fitting to a character in her situation. That's what really sells the piece.
Great job, Zannah!

Aww, thank you. =) I always feel like I have to tread carefully when delving into the psyche of characters who don't belong to me, but I think I got a pretty good feel for the relationship between Wielder and Obiwan. She's always stuck me as a very tough lady, someone to evaluate her situation and make the best of it, no matter what. While she might wallow in booze and guilt from time to time, she never seems to knowingly take her troubles out on those she's loyal to. She and Obiwan might spar verbally and physically, but I couldn't see her as blaming him for leaving her in this situation, or blaming the unborn child for it. He's her oldest friend. He knows her the best, but she's never been able to "keep" him for herself. There was always this wall between them created by duty and other loyalties. So it seemed like, to me, anyway, that this was a way she could have a part of him, whether he found his way back to her or not.

I was actually a little nervous when I first posted this piece, because she's NOT my character, and I wasn't sure if I had the thoughts right for her, but Wielder liked it, so I guess I did good. =D
