I like the location your right it does fit and the skull feels bit off to me since it almost looks like it would fall from her hands at any second.
On second look the skull is floating right?

That is the only critique I have though.

Thanks.

Okay.. had an eleventh hour request for DS backgrounds this weekend, and I'm not really in a position to turn work down just now. Self employment sucks when you take holidays and realise no-one's going to pay you while you're off.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback guys. Moral, yes.. I'm thinking the skull is hovering, in an eerie glow so to speak (doesn't come off very well in a line drawing).

Unlucky Slayer, I am halfway through the colour paint on your mes... I would've had a fully painted one today if it hadn't been for these chuffing backgrounds I had to do. Hey ho, money money... s'all good.

I'll post a low-res version as soon as I get a bit more done, I'm such an anal retentive about half finished stuff.

ps. Edited list again... meep.... must draw faster.

Is it possible to make the skull itself translucent like a spell effect or would that mess with the overall image?
Oh yes and you warned up at the start, I see no fault over choosing real money over game gold.

I don't want anyone to pay me real money though, seriously. I'm having a ball with this, don't want it to be like 'work'.

Okay, update for Unlucky Slayer

http://www.box.net/shared/1k7msl6asg

Haven't put the sword in yet but I'm almost there with the paint. I have a few things niggling me with the lip colour and the odd bit here and there. Got to do her legs and the (her) left side of the coat. Also the water/rain on the floor is just placeholder at the moment for my benefit tonally while I'm painting.

Sorry about my sporadic posting. Getting hectic here, almost got everything sorted for the wedding .. except what I'm wearing...

Did it sound like that? If so sorry I just meant your job took precedence.

Edit: Boy the eyes sure are bright green in game though my necromancers is an unnatural emerald green, In game it looks good but
Something a little more natural might work better in the picture.

Sorry, I'm such a dunce at times..

Ok, Unlucky Slayer... got a 'finished' version for you. If all is fine I'll PM you the link to download a zip file with the hi resolution photoshop file, plus a jpeg and png.

So that pushes Racthoh into active, and I'll get a prep sketch done for that one and start painting Moral55's Necro.
I've got four more DS backgrounds to do over the weekend, but I'll get started as soon as is humanely possible.

*edit for update:
I want to change my commission. I originally asked for just an avatar, but I am quitting GW, so I want something bigger Need to spend my last cash on SOMETHING :P
SO I would like a full body color with background picture of my ranger.

Hi ikarop, I got your messages.

Yes that'll be fine. It'll be a while before I can get to it though, I'm away for three weeks starting from the end of next week. But while I'm away I'm going to take all the screenshots with me and get some pencil prep stuff done for as much of the list as possible.
