Autumn Fay - Tinted and fixed

Thanks very much! Glad you liked it.

Thank you! Sometimes my pencil just takes off with those little hidden details all over the place.

Thank you! Though yours tops it all.

Thanks very much for the lovely comment!

Thanks very much! I'm glad you like her.

Most of my work is non-yaoi, actually. I think I only have about three nude men, and I wouldn't even consider them yaoi.

Glad you like my stuff, though! Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks so much for the compliments!

I think, personally, that PD is chalk-full of talented people - most of which have yet to find their niche in art. It takes so long to get to a point where one is comfortable with what they do. I still have to vary my style from time to time just to keep from pulling out all my hair.

The commission I'm currently working on in giving me no end of troubles - but I think that's just because I've been drawn-out, so to speak.

Thanks again for the lovely compliments!

Only one person on this site has seen the original (EvilBunnySlippers - it was made for her). The fixed-up scan is, in my opinion, a step or two different from the original piece. The work didn't scan well, though. Besides, I actually really like this version - perhaps even more than the original.

Thank you very much for your kind comment! I tend to strive for the proper amount of detail in my commissions. This piece was made for the winner of a contest I threw.

Thanks so much! This was one of those spur-of-the-moment ideas. I haven't seen many branch-winged fay, so I thought it might be fun to try.

Thanks again for the comment! Your own works are quite spectacular.

Thank you kindly!

I agree about the eyes. unfortunately, the pencil crayon I used to colour them was darker than I expected - Can't really fix that without losing a lot of shading on the face. I mean, I could fix it on the computer, but there isn't really much point to that - I want the scan to be true to the original rather than doctored up. I'm weird that way, I guess. As for more yellow... Well, It might be nice, but I really and truly don't want to put any more colour onto it. I'm getting to the point where if I touch it much more I might rip it up, and then I might make EvilBunnySlippers sad. THough yes - more yellow WOULD give it more of an old-photo look, I agree. It's just... gah. It's tough to tint properly with cheap pencilcrayons, I guess. I'm a wimp...

Thanks so much for your review. I promise I'll keep all those tipe in mind next time I do a tinted drawing like this. It's all a learning experience, after all.

Sweet dreams, luv!

OoooOh! I'm being worshipped! That's good to know once in a while. Especially welcome during this season. I'm very excited for Christmas and extremely stressed all at the same time.

Thank you so much for your bows and comments and all the good warm fuzzy things!

Yes, I hated those splotches too. They really got on my nerves, to be quite honest. I hate it when scanners pick up things like that that are barely noticeable in the original. I'm so glad you can see the difference, too. I thought it was fairly substantial, myself... But then again, I have the original in front of me (at least for a little while...)

I should be able to make some satisfactory prints soon. I've got some nice-quality paper that takes to our printer very well. That means your birthday pressie should be on its way after Christmas (just as everything else should be... hehehe)

Mucho loves!
Mr. Butmer

Really? Wow! I'm honoured that you think so, D.

Thank you so very much! What compliments! I think I'll have to leave this one alone now, lest I overwork it or (heaven forbid!) get tired of it. It's been a long time in the making, and I'm glad to be finaly finished with ALL aspects. *grin*
