Star Herder
Star Herder by @Starlight_Blade (Lyra Parry)

(sry about the big file size, i know it might take a while to load, but i think cutting it down anymore than it already is will ruin the feeling of the pic)

OK, i only think it's finished! i kinda like the patchy sky, but if u dont, tell me! i think i saw an image kinda like this before with a girl wit transparent wings looking at a too-large moon...if you drew it or know who did, pleez tell me so i can add them to my image credits!!! PLEEZ COMMENT! done entirely with Prismacolor(r) markers and a no2 pencil on HP(r) printer paper

first of all-I think this is about 674KB bigger than what is recommended- so it took forever and a day to load into view...and with her bum cheeks partially displayed should you not have a T rating(you have E now)...now as far as the image itself...I love the splotchiness of the ether between the stars, dislike the weird diamond shape you chose for the stars themselves...think the grass needs shading(at least a shadow from her form blocking the moonlight)...as it stands now the grass looks like a weird peninsula jutting into the nightsky... now I do love her rook(is that what her staff is called)-It is not identical to a shepherd's staff(or rook or crook-darn I wish I knew the word now) but she's a star herder so naturally it'd look more funified...Personally I think you should have made her a human(no wings)-like why feel the need to make her a mythical creature...more magestic being human and having the power to herd stars... BUT...I do love this pic nonetheless...It's real pretty-if it was reworked I'd love to hang it in the wood shed out in the air...

thank you very much for your comment! i forgot about the grass shading. About the wings- i was trying to see if my prismas would do light over dark well and i figured that if ur gonna herd stars, you should be able to reach them^^! The bum, well its not like everybody doesnt have one but if you think its offensive, i'll make it a T...i was trying to figure out stars and that was wat i came up wit, i dont have painter or photoshop or paintshop, so i dont have a little thingy that makes sparkles.... will work on the pic! ~Lyra
