Artist's Comments

This is for I have wished to do something her for a long time and as she caught my 5000th pageview.. This it is.. for you, my friend... I was planning to use your seasalt and stars.. but came out.. the crown :) But I love that seasalt and I will use it.. somewhere.. it is so.. fairylike :D

Queen of the Night.. the little girl who is too proud, too... snappish. She has lived her in life in dark and never seen more than the moonlight.. And in that kind of darkness, there has been no love and no care for her - only duties, only mentor who remind her who she is - the heir of the underworld, heir on night and dark, pain and suffer. She must follow the path what is meant for her. She has never seen anything beautiful, anything to keep or hold. Destruction and killing - that is thought for her. No mercy for others, they say her and she has nothing else to do than believe.. Believe the whispers in the night, follow guidance of shadows and follow her dark path given her by destiny.. But in her grief and sour heart... there is still curiosity.. and she.. in one night she found something new.. something she had never seen - a butterfly.. she followed the magical creature and something changed inside her... she cried her first tear - for the beauty of that butterfly.. but the look in her eyes.. it betrays that even if she wish - she cannot turn aside her fate... evilness in deep inside her, part of her.. in her veins, in heir mind.. her heart beats in the rhythm of that hatred. No escape for her....

Took ages.. Really.. Usually I do manipulation in 5 hours.. and some had said to me.. it takes so long.. this.. wow.. it was almost like 10-12 hours.. I had to repaint so much as I loved the pose but the stock images was not very well quality.. And the hand with that ball.. I just painted it all.. And the hair was really headache.. And those ribbons.. and.. so, so much more.. the time, when I finished.. was much, much later than I had hoped.. it wasn't not morning yet but... not the time I am used to go bed.. I am not happy with some things.. and as my sister said - I should stay with manipulations not painting.. But the amount of work here.. I just couldn't let it be unsubmitted.. Hope you like it... Thanks... (pass away :P too sleepy, yet..)

Hey, how come we all avoid the scraps, i think they're a more honest expression of an artist style and a chance to reverse-engineer the process, sooooo, give the scraps a chance people. [link] Hey, i look at yours
:iconfunkybutterfly:
i just wanted to ask....what do u do for the blending...coz this is my major problem with photmanip...i mean when you use a model as stock u just make it appear as if u painted it...i cant get this effect all i get is as if i just placed the photo...what do you do?

Wow! :O

Very good work Kadri!

Bad quality stock photo's are a nightmare to use, I agree. Some people are very creative with making stock but make their stock useless (except for referencing maybe...) by making the quality suck. It can be such a shame...

I have only one small thing I like less about your manip: the tiara, it looks like it'll fall af if she would look forward.

Other than that I love the magical feel of this. The ghostly wing look fantastic! :)
:iconbazzabent:
Nice work once again. The magical elements are really well done.
:icontevekinhell:
Gorgeous piece here! I love how you've done the orb in the girls hand :)

Awww.

Just AWWW. And I love the story (and I just remembered I promised Aspidiske to put up another few chapters of Minstrel's Song...thanks for reminding me) and you really did work hard on this one. Not your best, but a good one and I just can't wait what you can come up with salt and starries.
