Ronon is very cool, and I love, love, love this Sheppard. ♥

I'm *really* happy to hear that, 'cuz I'd been struggling quite a bit with this one: I went through a bit of "I suuuck", until I gave up and tossed my first attempt out and started fresh (which is always the better thing to do when stuck but I can be really stubborn and waste an hour on a drawing trying to salvage it, instead of just cutting my losses...)

Vampires are married by clergy? Unexpected, but touching. :D

I know, we were wondering about that. The priest didn't seem exactly happy to be there, though. And he became the wedding dinner afterwards.

Ronon is great, but Sheppard? Slays me dead. The drawing is fantastic and the coloring brings it to life just perfectly.

*guh*

Really, really thrilled to hear that. *points to replies to steammmpunk and newkidfan above* :)

Looking at it again, I think it's the color/shading around the eyes and mouth that bring it most to life. I totally understand the feeling of not being able to tell whether it's working because you've worked on it too long. But trust me on this one.

Also, I didn't mention it before, but your quick sketches are stunningly fabulous. They have so much character and gesture. I really love them.

I like the painting on bag.

Don't know if you get to read this, but, thank you kindly for commenting. :o)

Glad you like 'em!

(And I love sky pictures like that.)
I got another pic from that same evening which looks even weirder, but it's on my other computer...
