The winds of fate are changing...



________________





Oh my FUCKING god... I am so done with this piece. I remember starting it thinking 'this'll be a quick fun simple project' and then it was all BAM! Detail and shit EVERYWHERE. So a month and a half at least later...



... I'm not sure I'm done, but then again, I'm never sure. I want to be done.



I've never done something like this before, I'm not a huge fan of manipulations, and I've only ever used stock texture once before, but I wanted to try something new with my digital arts. I think I liked it.



Lines by the amazing <img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/mabo-chan.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="mabo-chan" /> who is amazing.

Color, manipulation, etc (c) me.



Cred to ~yana-stock for her awsome textures.



Anyways, everything but the lineart done in Photoshop 6.0

Before you bitch that dispite all the fantacy implications and photoart and such that is displayed in this pic, that this pic was origonaly drawn in a japanese/"anime" style, concider this: If this where done in an americanized style, no one would think twice about this picture being where it is.
