Artist's Comments

...don't try to fly with broken wings, you might fall.

For :icondianae: 's contest. The theme was 'fall', so I tried to utilize it as well as possible. I've wanted to draw a picture with that theme for a long time so I couldn't resist to take part to the contest. You can interpret the picture as you like.

I don't like the title, but I couldn't figure out a better one :(

A lot of work was put into this. The wings almost killed me. I used a reference for them. You can see it here: [link]

There is something immensely appealing about Dragonfly by ~lavra. The muted colors, the weightlessness of the girl and the fragile wings are all so beautiful. (Suggested by =thali-n and Featured by ^JunkbyJen)

I like the textures and such, and you did great on the wings. Those must've taken forever.
