*relaxes*

Oh man, I'm so glad the deadline got moved back. My design teacher just sent us an email saying that we had 3 projects for businesses (and our midterm grade) and they're all due this month.

I thought mesmers would love teasers.

Here's another teaser.

It's pretty much finished under there, but I might need to adjust some things once I've taken a break from looking at it for a while. The final resolution will be 1440x900.

Hey, I deserve a present once in a while

And so I decided to offer me a comission for the contest lol! Hope you like it and that it encourages you!

P.S Please forgive the annoying lines and the poor editing, I worked on it at school and my scanner is broken so I have to use a hideous one!

Nice job on the hybrid dress. If I wasn't so close to finishing the pic, I'd have made those modifications...but alas, you'll just have to deal with a big, full dress

Don't worry, the Kurzick dress looks good on you.

well, I think I'm gonna commit myself to a submission now

(even though tiny things might still be tweaked, but I doubt it as I can't really afford to spend any more time on this

)

Dream Haunt, Eleni and Eryn in a somewhat retro-depiction (Art Nouveau influences) which shows them weaving spells in order to enchant and seduce handsome guys...

Enjoy Stunning work morag ! Never expected such a different style ! One thing I absolutely love abt this is the colors u used - I could have never imagined such beautiful colors. And I love the way u draw lips, hands and hair. And Eryn looks so beautiful ! This is a very refreshing change from the usual art styles I see and very very pretty

Thanks ! *puts it as desktop wallpaper*

This picture just oozes style... the poses, the expressions, the background... stylish, sleek and very classy

And it actually smells as good as it looks

maybe cos of the flowers...

Morag - I love the art nouveau style. I notice the colors are a little muted compared to the samples you posted before, and I think you did the right thing there in keeping with the genre. The peachy yellow and orange working with the mauves look great with these ladies. Awesome overlapping spell effect and beautiful lilies.

I suppose I should stop tormenting our hosts as well. I am glad I took some time to step back and let the picture become new again, because I caught myself on a few 'omg wtf!?' spots that I never noticed before. But, finally, I think it's ready.
