Took more than a month, but it's finally completed.

I moved out of my comfort zone and tried a different technique for this vexel - no posterizing, color changes, & introducing some gradient features here and there.

There is plenty to look at in this vexel so take your time ! I paid extra special attention to detail. So full view would be a better option.
I also included those 'glossy eyes' that everyone loved from my 2nd vexel.

Title inspired from a classical piece by James S. Levine - As dramatic as this picture is, there is still something peaceful about it.

Anyone who wants to check out the original image can do so by clicking this link:

I ended up losing the original URL since where I got it from was shut down. It is linked from my web album though...

Eventhough I hate including this in my descriptions:
Please!!!
DO NOT take my version and claim it as your own. You can always check out the original image posted in the description.

I really hope you guys enjoy this piece as much as I do.
Thank You !




BTW...

A while ago, I got an email requesting that I do a hair tutorial...and...that makes me slightly nervous since I suck at teaching and I'm not an expert O_O. I just kinda...do it...you know lol.
Plus, there are hundred of hair tutorials out on the web already, so would making another one be retarded >_>?
I guess I'll leave the idea in the air for now. But if I get enough requests (and bribes lol) then I'll put one together!

^_^!
