Description Full view
When death comes, with a grip of ice and that which can no longer bear to glance into what is left... A life must come. She brings energy and restores the "damages" winter has done, by creating greenery with every step.
Even on rocks at times.
When she, spring, comes, so do the rains, that wash and melt the snow until life can be at peace once more.
Being a divinity of life-giving and birth, she has a natural fondness for all living things.
She is Tali.

Inspired by this animation .

I am happy now. This background I must have redone at least three times, all different settings. :3

Time Taken- 8+ hours

Lawl, radioactive butterfly! Looks like a chille pepper.

I think the effect of the butterfly works well in this, you've really captured the green glow both in the air and falling over the floor, which is quite a difficult thing to achieve without looking excessive if you're not careful. I like this piece, it's got a good atmosphere and I also like the way the green hue is carried through the different parts of the image, they really compliment each other good work, especially from so long ago

I've almost forgotten about this pic. xD
Thank you very much! I'm glad the greens go well together. ^_^

This (as you had pointed out) is an old work, so yeah... I dunno... I like it but I don't. Mostly for certain anatomy issues with the wolf, but yeah.

Yeah that's the trouble with older pieces, you tend to feel differently about them as time goes on...I'm only commenting on them because I have the horrid habit of getting into the mood of commenting and delving faaaar back into peoples galleries to leave my comments lol oh well, I think I'm just about done for now xD

I really like the effect in this, with the background and rain, and I think you did the glow effects rather well. This pic made me think that the wolf is pretty miserable and when this glowing butterfly shows up the wolf is like "and what new horrors shall this bring?"

I also watched the animation and thought it was incredible. I'm showing it to all my friends in college lawl. I like the part right after the deer puts the leaf into the water, when the song breaks in to a strong chorus and the greenery goes SPLODE!

Super-hypo-radioactive butterfly.....

The paw on the left (screen view) appears too bendy, not rigid enough. I love the shading with the glow but I think the glow is too strong in some areas, stronger than it should be considering distance. Also, the green grass looks misplaced, doesn't blend right.

Yeh I redid the glow a few times and then kinda gave up/settled with this.
