This is one of the reason I joined Deviant Art, to see beautiful colours and discover talented artists who make good use of their time. What I like most on this one is the way the head is turned.

This is now my favorite of all of your illustrations. I liked the previous versions, but this is truly amazing.

This is one of my favourites too and subsequently became the one I chose to make into postcards. <333

Well you made a good choice, not that the others aren't also very good. : ) The line stylization and textures (both things, consistently attractive throughout the entire series) in this one are just particularly beautiful.

If someday you're feeling worried about a project at Maidstone, remember how well you pulled this one off. Really, you're capable of more than you realize. : )
