You're insane. Have I told you that lately? You're bloody INSANE.

That said, fabulous work. I'd kill for your ambition. Now go put an icepack on that hand of yours. You deserve it.

Wow...I don't even know where to begin! o_O This is gorgeous! The time you must have spent in all that detailwork...gah. It certainly paid off in the end! I keep seeing something different everytime I look at this. Incredible shading on the bark and all those leaves and webs of cloth. Very clever design and a beautiful concept! It took me a moment to notice all the wispy fairies. :) The forest spirit/element (mask?) is a great touch, too...do you have a story behind that?

Thank you so much for sharing your vision and participating in the contest! It was very sweet of you, and I wish you the best of luck! ^__^

WOW! There's so much detail here! This must have taken you forever!

Good luck in the contest, with the amount of effort you put in you definitely deserve to win!

Thank you very much!! I was just glad I met the deadline....

About the forest spirit... thing... I was looking through all teh referances and suck and notes about the charecter. There were a few peices that stuck in my mind. One thing was the "happiness is butterflies" quote, and another was the anaolgy that the 'forest guards him like a jealous lover'. The spirit is like a giant butterfly, and the pixies are having their fun and taunting him with the human mask. At the same time, the forest is pulling him back into itself, drawing him away from it.
Well, that was my thinking on it anyhow. Once again, thank you so much for the compliments. I am glad you like it!

You haven't told me lately, so thanks for the reminder XD

And thank you much. I wish I could have done more with it though. I would have if it weren't for the deadline. Perhaps I ought to label this dev as being a work in progress.... just to give people warning that I'm going to do more.

Thank you! Even if I do not win, at least I had fun drawing this picture. I know I spent at least 10 hours on it... Probably closer to 13 or 14 total.
