Please Clicky for Bigness! Its Worth it, i promise!
I have to say i am very happy with how this turned out. I discovered doing this one, that sometimes Less Is More. I loved this model by *Lisajen-stock so much, but everything i did with it turned out messed up. Then today, whilst browsing stock.exchg i found this great image of the steps and i knew i had found the perfect background. I discovered with this, that fancy textures, heavy filters and over-zealous brushing was never going to work with such a delicate model, so i kept all the embellishments to a minimum and concentrated on making sure she looked right in her new home. I hope i did it well. This is Branwen. (Pronounced Bran_winn) Means "beautiful raven" from Welsh - bran: "raven" and gwen: "fair, blessed" EDIT on 05/04/07 I am so proud of this image, but everytime i looked at it, the watermark was putting me off. I have taken it off and just added the signature instead. - Also, this is a bigger version. Thankyou for all the attention, faves, comments and features it has got.

Very nice and gentle feeling.
