Artist's Comments

Give me wings, so I may soar in the sky and live in the clouds, gazing out into the universe where the stars play.

I was reading through :iconanim3xangel:'s writing blog, while listening to a CD she let me borrow recently, and one song called Mugen -electric eden- was playing while I read that particular line. This image exploded into my mind, and I suddenly realised how fitting the song was to the feel of the image, so I set about drawing.

Style experimentation! It's good for you. But man, between the different style and the light source, this was a really difficult picture. I'm really happy with how it turned out though!

Glenda, Cass, Tooms, thanks for your help C: I'm not sure if you'll notice, but I did change it according to your suggestions.

Image belongs to me, ~Hikarino

As always, critique is welcome and appreciated.

Allow me to be the first to say...anything, it would seem. XD

I really love how it looks like a painting. The colors are really very lovely. The words are kind of escaping me at the moment, but yes, I do find it lovely.

And it's kinda complemented by this song I'm listening to right now. XD

Nice work, Hikaru.

I just put Mugen on and looked at this picture. I think its really fitting <3

Like I told you before, I think this is very beautiful <3 I love the fact how she's floating in the sky. Like TommySwoes said, the colours are lovely and its just hard to describe what you feel looking at it.

Well done! <3

I love the sky textures that you've done, and the pastel...painting...texture on the overall image, as well. XDD

Frankly, I think everything's fine except for the anatomy. I think the legs could be a little slimmer, and the other should be a -bit- smaller in length and width because it's further away from the viewer.

But, overall, great work! XD
I really love the clouds and that shooting star in the sky 8D -SHOT-

Don't worry, we all know that anatomy is a pain in the ass.
But you're well on the way to honing your skills, so keep up the great work! XD

Wooow, I'm so way impressed by this :D (grammar has died, I'm tired XD )
The fluffiness of the clouds, and the sketchy-style of shading is really, really beautiful. The stray strand of hair adds so much life to the picture, too.
The anatomy of her back is to diiie for c:

Possibly, the only thing that looks a little strange is her legs. I don't quite know, but, it just feels like they're at an odd angle. And I'm not sure if the right one should be that much longer...
Still, it's really a minute detail and the picture looks fabulous like it is anyway c:

Great work!! You've made great leaps in skill c:

Thanks x3 And thank you for the fav, too~
