Ever So Gentlyby *keiiii

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Fantasy

Phoenix from my comic Haru-Sari. This image will be used for the cover of Chapter 20.

You can read the comic here ---> [link]

In case you're wondering about that extraneous eye around her cheekbone, she has four eyes (even though you can only see three of them at this angle).

Her hair is supposed to be a brighter shade of red, but I think this darker, earthy red really works better for this particular picture.

I was feeling very ambitious when I started coloring this picture. The result is not even half as good as what I was aiming for; still, it's one step closer to the kind of style I want! 'Closer' is always good, even if it's not yet quite 'close.'

Sketched and painted in Adobe Photoshop 7.0.

FROM THE SUGGESTER: When I saw Ever So Gently by *keiiii I fell down from my chair. So incredible. I adore the look of the angel, a melt of despair and eternity. I love the detail of each feather. It seems that there is a contrast between several matters as if this painting was traditional. For sure one the best digital piece I've ever seen!
