Artist's Comments

Wow.. Its finally done. My current masterpiece. :3 I've been working on this for the past week, and all in all, I think I've totaled around 30 hours of work with it. That is, including the background.

Xerxes, the woman, is my character, and I used no source for her.
The background, on the other hand, I did use stock for, and I must thank night-fate-stock for the use of her photo: [link] .

Anyway, I hope everyone likes it as much as I do. <3

OH! And please please please FULL VIEW, as there are many details that simply arn't very visible unless it's fullsized. :3

I'm gonna go do something else now. Something -- anything -- that involves, like, not looking at those eyes. They creep me out (in a good way, o'course). *shudders*
Exquisitely done, and, of course, an instant favorite.
...by the way, the 'something else' I'm gonna do is poke through your gallery. *runs off*

Thankyou! :3 Yeah, actually, the clouds were really Really easy to do. and the braids were tedious, but not all that hard. it was her face, and the cloak, that really gave me trouble. XD

Brilliant. I'm so glad you've finished! The cloak could use just a tad more shading to blend into the background, but otherwise, this is perfection; so creative!! :)
