+Grandioze+

Dude, so friggin' sorry it took me so long to comment. I FAILD, KURAI. LOOK UPON ME WITH SHAME. :C
Omegeeee! You did a wonderful job on Grandioze. Do you know how much I love this? This much -insert a sammeriffic amount of heart and glomp emoticons-.

First, the coloring is insane. Dude, it totally is. You made her so shiny and lovely and . You've gotten all of her colors perfectly and.... the jewels. Those are some awesome lookin' jewels. They're wonderfully done! I just love them! . Aug. You make me wanna get off my lazy butt and actually draw/color a GOOD picture of her. Not just that craptastic reference sheet thing. YAY MOTIVATION! The backgound has awesome coloring, too. How do you do that Kurai? You have a way of making backgrounds MATCH your pictures perfectly. I wish I could do that even half as well.

Secondly, awesome lineart. Man do I love that lineart. It's beautiful. Superb job on the anatomy, especially on her arms. You're so wonderful at anatomy even on something you don't commonly draw _raptors. The muscles on her face are just .

Holy crap! Wing transparency! Omegeeeeeee. You win
I are forever pwned by your awesome arteest skillz. Hopefully, I'll be able to make my half of the trade live up to your absolute awesomeness.
