This is a poor attempt to cg... I took Allia, put her in here, and then made a tree and sky around her... total hhours: 17 band it still looks crappy... oh well... I at least did a decent job on the background . This is definetly unrefined. no line art, no pencil sketch for a base... god i must be crazy. :/
Uh..... sweetie, I think it's amazing. The background is just...... wow. Allia looks great, I'm loving this CG style. She's set off from the background just enough to make her stand out, and it looks DAMN good.
It's lovely... a day doesn't go by that I don't admire your skill.
First of all (and I know you'll hate me for this),
*hours
*and
Now that those niggling details are out of the way....
First of all, I must echo my illustrious comrade who commented above in saying: HOLY CRAP! THAT BG IS A-FRICKING-MAZING! It's nice and ambient and cool and nifty and and and.... Well, the bottom-left of the painting looks a little empty, but... HOLY CRAP!
Secondly, the character. I don't know if I've run across this particular version of Allia, but... Again, it is hard to contain my jaw-droppedness at the work. The pose is perfect, the expression is masterfull... Her bangs are flat and her right foot looks twisted, but holy schist, but it looks nice. You really need to up the rez on this and smooth out that aliasing on her hair. The shadows are quite excellent.
Thirdly, ... well... why haven't you used these creative energies to continue War Inc. ?!
Sorry, stupid fanboy tendencies.
Ach. I'm afraid I must leave it at that. I have a voice in the back of my head that sounds a lot like someone we both know telling me to cut it now and ignore the self-deprecation that would normally follow. Well, that and I need to get some major work done.
Ok first off the spelling correction is what i missed when you were on hiatus from dnd chris so i'm not hating you correct away!
secondly the Background and allia herself took 52 layers and 7,342 colors all on a program that ran out of the trial version, 17 hours and one massive hand cramp, all to get the great descriptive accolade
Allia looks too young. And i forgot to put in her elf ears...or ears in general, her horns looks silly, and allia as a character should not wear white... so all in all except for the fact she looks too young, and too innocent(back story wise she's never been an innocent like her sister Kara, she was the dominant twin, who took responsibility over kara)
thirdly as far as WAR INC goes... I have something planned called "Diary of a mad woman" that i think you'll like, and as far as Rabid fanboy tendencies well where would the world be without them? certainly a more dull and colorless lifestly on a day to day basis.
So thank you for passing me with flying colors and for the fav. I've seen your favorites gallery and it takes quite a lot to put something there.
Child Allia yes... grown up version is... here: [link] In this pic she's pretty much an innocent kid/half dragon... in the other version she is quite sadistic.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.
