Wow! That's amazing!

Amazing work. I love the concept and it came out beautifully ^^

... so beautiful ...

Wow, this is beautiful. *v* Lots of details!

What a gorgeous picture! Really interesting concept as well. = )

wow fantastic work :-D can't wait to sit down and have a chat about some ideas I have :-D

Oh wow. I really love the way the water flows in this <3 Excellent job!

This is so beautiful. ^^ With quite a touching concept. A shell so pure coating the one that dons it. Pain will simply follow along the rippling armor, never touching the skin as it goes by...

Oh my, you picked a really complicated theme there. Respect. Painting realistic water is pretty much as complicated as realistic fire.

Stunning! Love it!

do you do commissions?

This is beautiful

Terrific concept! I wish more games game that kind of thought to the spells that give you armor bonuses and such. I just love the description as well.

Errinnert mich iwie an denn Film *Das letzte einhorn* und die scene am meer

Water can't stop the blade of a sword striking edge-on, but it instantly deflects the blade that strikes it at an angle.

Using armour like this would require a unique, mobile, constantly flowing, beautifully elegant style, with elements that resembled T'ai Chi or perhaps Aikido -- accepting each attack and guiding it harmlessly aside barely an inch from the defender's body. It would take enormous skill but, in the paws of a master, it'd be both phenomenal and beautiful.

Not much good against arrows though.

epiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicly drawn :)

Extremely subtle armor. Reminds me of a frame from a slow motion video where someone gets a bucket of water thrown on them.

Breathtaking. Absolutely breathtaking.

My heart flutters.

Or in English: "Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend" - Bruce Lee

Now for the Drow equivalent, I had to use alternate wording for some things as some of the words didn't translate over well, but the gist of it is still there. I think that famous quote from the legendary Bruce Lee fits this picture perfectly, don't you?

Reminds me of this music: http://youtu.be/zpiQtw1Z84g

Great movement suggested in this single frame. Would work as a good keyframe for a cool, if slightly bizarre animation

That must've been one hell of a water balloon!

Beautiful.

Friggin awesome! I love water effects!

The original looks way more breathtaking by far. :)

I love the subtle canvas texture to this. Is it real media or digital?

Either way, I love the concept and think this piece is beautiful. <3

stunning work, I love the piece and the concept, thank you for sharing this with all of use. Do you ever plan on doing a piece like this with color, if you don't mind me asking?

I know you don't typically reply to comments or anything, but I hope you read them, all the same. Your work as inspired me for years. This piece in particular is one that I can connect with. It reminds me of cleansing old feelings and searching for the truth. Starting over new and clean. I could stare at this picture for hours.

Whoever ends up owning this piece is going to be incredibly lucky. *Smiles*

amazingly beautiful!

Beautiful work and stunning concept! Love all the ripples, waves, and droplets of water!
