This is really good! I love these books, but I'd never been able to get a really clear picture in my mind of Kaye in her human glamour. Now I can just picture this!

very very good hun! The only thing i have a critique on is that you made her look older than she is supposed to be, she looks like shes like 20 somthing!

Wow this is beautiful. She looks like she should be the next Britany Spears or better. But she's going to be sprinkling some pixie dust instead i guess but if she looks like that if the pixie dust fails she can always make it big with modling agencies or singing lol.

Wow! It's so Kaye. I'm glad you've done this - she's kind of hard to picture from the front cover... I though her hair would have been blonder... She's really cute though - well done!

Kagama [2006-10-30 02:54:25 +0000 UTC]

i like it...but it would be more kayelike if she didnt wear makeup .no offense?

spiralkitty In reply to Kagama [2006-11-06 16:11:51 +0000 UTC]

There actually is a part in there where she does wear make up, but that's not the point.

the reason her eyes have a bit of green on them is because I needed to balance the green background with something...

as for the dark lashes, helps bring out the eyes, and balances the shadows in the face.

Glad you like it, and no offense, but I wanted to explain. Thanks again.

Glad you like it.
It was a gift for the person who introduced me to the book!
