wow..this one is pretty cool...i love the smoke floating amongst the bottom left hand corner...and how it rises up into that murky yellow which breaks down into abstract patterns really awsome! the attention to detail in the hair is supremly executed as well!

- Puzzle Pieces

I normally don't like elves with ears drawn like this, but everything else is done so well, that I can't help but accept them and love the image.

It's a lot better than WoW crap, where there are ridiculously long ears, and in addition everything just looks oversaturated, overexaggerated, and cartoony.

Here, even if I'm not used to those kind of ears outside of anime elves, everything still looks completely realistic. The facial features, the lighting, the textures, etc. It just blends so well that my disbelief flies out the window.

Great image.

He looks really good. Nice picture!

Thank you so much! With ears, I pay very special attention to not just the ear itself, but also the way it's attached. If it doesn't look like it can perch on the skull, after all, it just won't look real.

She. ;3 Strong noses usually lack in fantasy art, don't they? Heehee. :3 Actually, it will be corrected soon, she's not as pretty after I did the yellow lighting...

Thank you so much! I really can't take credit for the precise forms of the smoke, just the placement...the forms are courtesy of the smoke brushes credited in the description.

Ugh... I was trying to figure out if it was a guy or a girl, but with elves and drow you can never be certain. xD I mean... I don't see big boobs that would make me call her a girl, and her face... like I said, I was thinking about it but thought it was a guy. ^^ Anyway I like HER.

Heehee...nah, understood, especially with the influence of anime bishies. It was just a sane commissioner who said "and she has a normal-sized bust", is all, and I wasn't able to push it much due to the light direction. x3

She looks so flat. ^^" But never mind as the pic is still awesome!
