Artist's Comments

Mhiet'e of the Dhuriiehm.

Just a character study, really, but I needed something to help de-stress from college finals. I tried to balance the simplicity of the portrait by working very hard on the details and lighting. Mhiet'e is one of my most interesting looking characters. I had a lot of fun playing with her design. She has a very mysterious, quiet countenance that goes deeper than her outward look, so I tried to capture that in her face.

My productivity has been lacking because of schoolwork, but now I have a month off between semesters. I'm going to do my best to make good use of it, so expect more paintings very soon! :]

Photoshop 7.0.

The very existence of flamethrowers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done...”

I love how you have that bird in her hair. It's so subtle.

I just love it all over.

wow, I adore this character design! one the first look it looks kinda rough, but then you see how very worked out it is - the runes on her body, the hairstyle. once again I really love your way of painting, maybe because you don't head for overdone realism in painting!
