Andel, for my half of the trade with ~Sinn-ryu. :)

Sorry that it's probably not exactly what you requested, 'Tari, but I hope you like it anyway! He was definitely fun to draw/paint. I really wanted to draw him from the front (is that a cravat he has? I'm under the impression that it is, but that could be -- ...actually, I won't say that xD), but this idea worked the best.

[ps. everyone, go buy and read her book, The Crystal Flute!]

OH. I was like "Uhm. I don't see any reflections." xD
I thought I was replying while looking at the wrong picture again.

As usual the way you do light and colours is gorgeously done. <3 I love how the bright golden light in the background contrasts with the dark shadows, it's such a great effect. Your colours on the character are so rich and beautifully blended, it's like an oil painting!

Crit-wise... well, the light could be blended a bit better I suppose, your brushstrokes are showing a bit and you could maybe blur them a little. And the blue sheen - maybe could make that a little wider on his cloak, so that it's not just a thin line. But it most definitely looks great as is!
