gahhh fullll viiiiieeeeewww please :)

Thanks for 2000 watchers guys! And to everyone who takes time to comment on my work :) or even just looks at it XD This ones for eveyone on DA! The community have been so kind and I feel I really couldnt have improved the way I have wothout imput from you amazing people :)
2000 watchers- I still can hardly believe it! 2000 people want to know when I put art up, when I first joined I would never imagine it to be that many! XD heh, and FRuiT BaBieS [link] has over 1000 faves (and a DD) which is also crazy


ohffff... im actuly not feeling too well at the moment but I managed to finally finish this off... its been teatering on the edge of completion for a few weeks now
I started this in January and its just taken a lonnngg time to do.. its not even -that- complicated for one of my pieces, but iv worked on it on and off a lot; the hair deffinatly took the longest :P

The lineart was done in Photoshop (and will be put in my scraps later) and the colouring in OpenCanvas, id say 40 hours were spent in total on her- a supprising ammount of that on the lineart, the colouring didnt seem to take to long in comparison... XD

I am pretty pleased with the resuts though :) I think the colours are nice, the thing which -really- bugs me is that when she is flipped she lookes retarded. From the right way round I can see little wrong, but when I flip it she looks like she had a fight with that peacock... and lost. It depends on you perception.. but to some of you guys shes going to look really weird...

Pavo decorus- The title infact is the binomial name of this fictional breed of Peafowl. Most pecocks come under the genus Pavo. So does mine :P then its species is decorus which a latin translator told me was latin for beautiful. So its like 'beautiful peacock' :) I thought it sounded quite nice and couldnt think of another title for this picture :P

The print doesn't have the writing on XD

Anywho, not sure what else so say- ask my some questions and ill update or something XD Please enjoy!~
