This was originally my entry for 's contest, but I had to work a load of late shifts and couldn't get it finished in time So count it as a piece of gift-art - I spent a while on it and didn't want to just write it off!
This is 's character Ecarlate - such a beautiful design - I thought her story was interesting, so here is the snapshot in my head I got when I read it. She is marooned on a desert island when young, her parents killed when the boat goes down - hence the setting.
Time taken:20 hours plus
References used: Ecarlate from The two parent-horses from
Thanks also to for her amazing collection of brushes (used for some of the clouds and waves)
Oh, and since it was a lyrical contest, the lyrics I was basing this on were
"You don't form in the wet sand, you don't form at all, I do." From the song Wet Sand by the Chili Peppers.
Thankyou so much! I'm glad you liked the parents, they were one of the bits I wasn't too sure about I like the background too, though I'm still a real rookie at them

God I have been meaning to comment on this for ages now!
Here I gooeesss I loves it, needless to say I think this may be your best picture to date The sky is beautiful, I love how vivid it is and its got a paint like feel to it which really brings out the clouds and such. The ghosts of Ecarlate's parents are stunning, I had to keep looking at them, I love the poses and the transparancy and EVERYTHING they look so sad! As for Ecarlate, she herself looks stunning, your anatomy and shading has really improved! The wild hair and sandprints are very well done. Lovely work hun, its so beautiful ^_^ I just wish I could keep on faving it forever
