Artist's Comments

'Both [Sabriel's] hand's still clutched Ranna, but it was silent, resting below her breasts. Her sword loomed above her, blade and hilt casting the moonshadow of a cross upon her face.
'Something from his childhood memory flashed through Touchstone's mind. A voice, a messenger's voice, speaking to his mother.
'"Highness, we bring you sorrowful tidings. The Abhorsen is dead."

Sabriel, Lirael and Abhorsen are the 3 BEST books on this planet! Seriously, read them - strong, strong recommendation from me.

I know the drawing's not accurate to the text, but I didn't see the text until I'd already drawn it XP. I also chose to leave the colours in shades of grey bar the blood, to reflect the greyness of the river of death.

(That's a bell she's holding by the way for those of you who haven't read the book :))

Wow ii-kanji you have really improved in your drawings! :heart:
I love the dark, myserious atmosphere and the shading. Her hair looks super awesome, and so does her facial expression it is very expressive has a lot of emotion. :)
I also love the pose and her clothing design, the pencil work looks amazing. :D
I also loved your team rocket pictures, I was just too lazy to comment on them. :XD:

Thankyou :hug:

I was quite pleased wit how it came out in the end, apart from a few horrific smudges which wouldn't rub out on, of all places, her face -_-" I "magically" got rid of most of it, but there's still a blotch on her right cheek </perfectionist>

Lol XD I can't believe I'm still not over Pokemon. It's been, like, (wait,15-6=9) nine years! But, thanks anyway!

Your welcome. :D

It looks really good, I didn't even notice the blotch until you metioned it. :)
Pokemon is pretty cool, but I like other things. :)

There was a huge, dark smudge on her chin (which, trust me, you would have noticed), so I can be grateful that the left over one is practically unnoticeable!

Pokemon is, I think, one of the most embarrassing things of my life XD But only to the outside world - I don't mind on the internet ;]
