first of all this is a wonderful piece as always :clap:
and i read the comment...unrealistic ? 90% of art is not realistic...and thats exactly the point...it have to take u far far away to strange lands and weird creatures and beautiful entities to the point that u forget the harsh real life we are in...
anyway lets get busy:
The color tone is ur trade mark as always and the atmoshpere is dark and gloomy...and i love this strange alien environment...u did a hell of a job on the little details on them..texturing and else...am even wondering if u used any 3d elements...
and its all flowing in a beautiful way starting from the sky above to the glow on the those rocky pillars edges till the rocks shes standing on...

And about the girl: her hair is perfect and i love the fact that u personalized her a lot....u made her a character like shes in a video game or movie...with unique armor on her shoulder and little red jewels or something on her forehead...also her dress is beautiful...and i love the black ribbons flowing from her sword handle..its a nice touch...
even her bra has a certain design...

really magnificent piece man :clap:

This is a very nice work, Aphostol. I like the cold atmosphere of it, and you did a great job on the landscape, as well as the composition, the balance of the light/dark is great. I do have to agree with Paxdraconis as far as the posture of the figure. It sort of looks like she's about to fall over or something, she's not quite rooted to the ground, or maybe she hasn't had her v8 (sorry, couldn't resist :P) It's kind of like she's standing lopsided on level ground. Aside from that, though the form looks spot on. Nice job!
