Bummer about the file getting lost. :C It looks really nice though.
Those doodles amuse me.

I love it, finished or not.

Condom hats are very fashionable in France.

Eh, no one likes the French

She's totally casting raspberry slurpee. ;)

She's lovely :)

a witch!!

God damn! NICE!!!!

why you would consider this "lost" unless you wanted to loose it. Just because the "file is gone" (back-ups anyone?) doesn't mean you could not re-constitute and continue with the work. You don't say how old this work is per se, but I also know that drawing on a computer has become (technologically at least) easier and simpler as time progresses. I don't know which "tech level" you like (I still use pencil and paper, but then, I'm an old school animator) but it does occur to me that you may be pulling out your whiskers to spite your muzzle on this one, and lots of other examples of your work that you've said won't be finished. It is of course, your decision. But I have to be level honest and tell you that I think you're cheating yourself and your audience by giving up on so much so quickly.

I also write, and yes, there have been countless times since the antediluvian days when mean old word processors with 8 inch disks "ate" something I have worked on long and hard. If I had given up on those works at that point, the entire body of the work I've done might well fit on a post card. Just last month, I lost one entire act of an Animation script when a car spun out on ice , hit a pole, and blacked out my entire block in a shower of sparks. Thanks to the programs I use being able to incrementally back up a file as I worked on it, the real "loss" was most of 10 pages or so. Y'know what? I went back and re-did those ten pages, and when I was done, I was happier with them because they worked better than the original sequence I had planned for them. So the key is to look at "losing" something, not so much as a "subtraction", but as a chance to do creative addition and augmentation.

"Loss" is in the heart, and in the mind, but so is creative determination. The only time you "lose" anything, is when your heart lets it be gone.

So, other than showing off things that won't be done, why not clue us in on some of what you're working on now, and that will be finished?

I think it's possible to work with what you have now! but even incomplete, this is so awesome. Dite is seriously such a cute character. AND MAGE OUTFITS ON BIG GIRLS = <333333 OH WOW ;A; do want to try something like this now whenever I have your patience and skill.

SERIOUSLY THO, whether you finish it or not, I love this. :3

Aww, that's such a shame the file got lost :< But this is still super pretty as it is! I don't know why... but I like, love her right hand/paw X3 It's just like... Ahh. That perspective would probably have screwed me over but you nailed it ;3

I really need to commish you asap. This has sparked an idea fro such commish actually.

But it's so cool-looking!

I really adore this as it is actually, so I'm not sad about you stopping work on it. It's just so awesome! XD
