Spent a little extra time on this one, refining my own hand on backgrounds and environments. I've done backlit sunsets/sunrises before, but it doesn't hurt to keep poking at it.

Oh-wow! She looks absolutely beautiful. Your coloring style works so well with Windrider's. The background is gorgeous and adds so much depth - the dusk-fadee city scape seems to pull it all together so gracefully - what a treat!

I love it so much!

Thank you very much! Glad you like the city, because I'll admit, I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it actually lol. Didn't want it so detailed it detracted from the foreground. But knowing it compliments it well enough to ';pull it all together so gracefully' is encouraging to me; let's me know I should go in this direction more.

Thanks!

Hours of practice. Years of experience. And tossing it all aside to run a Google search for 'Cloud Brushes.' It's pretty lazy, actually, but seeing as I have about 8 left to be done this week...I can live with making shortcuts on the background. :)

Yep, and it's commission business. They're paying for a 3/4 character with color. Backgrounds are a bonus I throw in gratis, mostly because I want to develop that skill on my own. It's still more important to me that they like the way the character turned out, but it's nice to get a nod for the BG too.
