Walp, this one's my favorite. I don't know nearly enough about art to understand how the shading works, but it works. The colors feel textured without being washed out, and I love the little borderless red "glow" that silhouettes the entire piece. I'm not sure if this was your intention, but it did take me a moment or two to find her eyes, but otherwise I think your lineart is really clear and expressive. Thank you for entering!

Oh, snap! This one pops!

Artist, you have a knack for drawing attractive, dimensional curves, full of character. (Have you ever done caricature? If not, I will bet you’d be good at it.) Her eyes are darkly shaded and easily lost in her face, but those menacing fangs preserve the tension. Good use of hatching overall; Dolda’s artist could use it as an example.

This is a top tier piece, Artist. Thanks for creating it!

First of all: thank you. I've said it on Dolda Anslutningar, but it's really cool to be getting art for something I wrote.

Second of all: wow. This is incredibly evocative, and the feral glee in Chryssie's expression is just great. My only (very, very minor) critique is that a few of the lines on the face combine to give her a vaguely catlike look? I think it's the ones around the snout area, they give that cat nose impression. But the colours, the little bits of motion blur, the threads, the eyes - there is a lot to like about this. I'm glad I could help inspire you so!

I really like the use of shape in this one to represent the golden threads. I'm less convinced by the color and texture: the red scallopy hatching isn't really doing it for me, and I think the golden glow in the middle needs some more contrast (shadow or outline) to stand out from the page-background that's being used for her coat. The facial form is what really throws me off. The curves are dynamic and bold, but overall it could use to be more controlled and have less of the chaos of the scene leaking into the medium. I still appreciate it a lot, though; pics are kinda second-class around here, a bold try is worth quite a bit, and I can see a lot of work went into trying to represent the changeling transformation well.

Thank you guys for first! I was really inspired by Meridian's story and wanted to make a picture for it, but I was running out of time so I whipped out three pens and a highlighter and got to work.

As soon as I wanted to make the eyes mildly realistic I immediately regretted it because, as you guys have also seemed to notice, the eyes blended into the background.

The only thing I'm proud of is her hair and the hatching done with the red. (I might have gotten a bit carried away lol)

Also! Prime, I don't think you noticed yet but if you let your mouse hover over the picture you might get a surprise caption ;3.

Thanks for the feedback!!! <3

Wow, I didn't notice that at all. Anyway, you absolutely deserved first, and I'm glad you liked the story! Thanks again.
