Critiques for "Julia's Butterflys"

i think the colors look awesome. It looks aged. wow really cool. It's good to see some stuff from you with texture and a different look

I'd do more, but it scans so badly :< It eventually depressed me so much that I pretty much stopped doing it cause back then, people would look at my art and not care about the media. I infact got more attention from digital. I actually MUCH prefer to traditionally colour than digital. It's fun. This picture is completely covered in metallic paint, and iridescent paint ^^ The white swirly thing around her is chalk pastel which is great cause it contrasts the metallic with a matte finish in the light ^^ It's very cool in person

Actually I quite like the effect. It kinda looks weathered like a piece of parchment or an old photo It's different from your other work. Very cool

Oh- it is a peice of parchment ^^ I do like the texture alot. This actually puts down the texture, cause it looks alot nicer in person. This was the smooth paper too off memory XD Imagine me using the *textured* stuff? XD

your atc's are turning out great Ark. I'd like to commission you for one when you get finished with all your other stuff.

I don't mind You can do it now. IT'd give me something to draw ^^ I wouldn't mind if it's pre sold (It'd be nice to be able to display it at the con though... )

cool. I've always liked how manly your male chars end up looking. My Kurt never seems to come out as big and bulky as I want. I'd love it if you could do one of him.

Which one is Kurt?

the one with blue hair. he's draconic.

It looks really good Ark. You can see part of the sheen from the metallics. I'm sorry I've missed being around - what are these cards?

I was gonna make a heap of original art cards to sell at a con, but then I got a bacterial infection and couldn't draw for most of 2 months- that killed the cards idea. It was also me getting to play with my traditional media again ^^ IT was fun ^^

Rgh. Glad you're feeling better now though. Perhaps you could just look at it as more time to work on the project before your next con?
