Wow, thank you so much! :)

lol, most of the art teachers I've known have been (unfortunately) jerks.

Wow nice work in graphite. I'd I tried that, it'd look like a mildly-artistic smudge on a card, haha.

Thank you!

Haha, smudgey can be good! *used smudging in almost every part of this picture*

I can understand that, but sometimes it's hard to preserve what's already been drawn, especially if your a hand dragger like me.

Haha, yeah, definitely. This picture was pretty small, so it wasn't too hard to avoid smudging existing bits with my hand. For larger pics, I usually try to work from the bottom left to top right (being right handed) to avoid said smudging problem :b

Oh, thank you very much!

I'm not sure if I'm going to offer it for prints, because I don't have a good photo or scan of it, unfortunately =/

Yeah, it does. We really really need a new camera =/ Just not high priority, unfortunately!

That would also make a cool title for a song or album for a gothmetal band with a female lead

Heh, yeah, kinda sounds like a song by Nightwish or something :b

Nightwish was one on my mind. Within Temptation would be another

How the hell do people make their art so perfect like this, its looks as though its impossible!

Jocarra ~jocarra

I think the trick (at least for the bottom half) is using a lot of smudging to make it seem smooth and ethereal. Anyone can smudge! Just takes a little practice to make it look even :)
