Wow, that's so cool! So realistic. Wonderful! :)

Thank you!

[rasetsunyo.livejournal.com]

Oh this is so utterly lovely, I love how pensive he looks.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :D

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I'd already gotten his shoulders drawn and the hand sketched in when I noticed that he was using the other hand in the movie. Oops. Ah well.

[gardendoor.livejournal.com]

Wow; you really managed to capture Haku's beauty and intensity; he's every bit as compelling here as in the anime. And your technique is simply gorgeous.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! This was the first time I'd ever managed to do a realism technique that felt right. :D

[kaiserkuchen.livejournal.com]

His hair is especially lovely! ♥!

Alsdkfj fingernails. *_*

[telophase.livejournal.com]

:D I took a photo of my hand in the mirror, and after that, it was pretty easy to do them - just a couple swipes of color, mostly. XD

[harbek.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous. When reveals come, if you have a deviantArt, I am so favouriting this. If not, then guh anyway. ♥

wowww!! what an amazing piece! I love the moment you picked, too.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I love that scene in the movie, so it was my first choice.

[sheepfairy.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! It's so lovely and realistic - the hair, the petals, and the eyes are just amazing.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I feel like I've finally cracked the secret of realism - if I could just reproduce it, I'd be happy. XD

[wensleydale.livejournal.com]

Hee, pouty lips. :)

[telophase.livejournal.com]

XD They were fun to paint.

OMG, that is GORGEOUS! His hair and the petals and his lips - so crazy beautiful. I'm in awe of the way you shaded his irises; they're so piercing and lively. I adore Spirited Away and I absolutely love this! Thank you so, so much!

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

I surprised myself, because I didn't expect it come come out quite so good. XD Every time I look at it, I'm all "uh, I painted this?"

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Those lips are flipping amazing! Holy crap! The beautiful petals so whimsical, too! Wow!

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[leyna55.livejournal.com]

Beautiful! The composition is great, lovely work on the face and the hair and the petals look delicate.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[xingou.livejournal.com]

Wow. Excuse me while I sit here stunned for a bit....

::stares::

This is gorgeous work. I am amazed and kind of failing at finding the words to say why. I especially love his hair and I LOVE the coloring. You have a ridiculous amount of talent.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D I think it's the best work I've done so far.

[pcby.livejournal.com]

:D ♥!

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thanks! XD

[kasche.livejournal.com]

I really liked that movie - and I love this pic. I really love it. I like the pose, the expression, and oh boy, the level of detail. The hair, the eyes, the lips, the hand, the clothes - I really, really love this.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It's one of my favorite movies. :D

[bobrhyn.livejournal.com]

Hooooooooooly crap, this is gorgeous.

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[elynross.livejournal.com]

This is really gorgeous, with fantastic detail!

[telophase.livejournal.com]

Thank you! (That hair drove me nuts. XD)

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

OMg I can't believe I missed gushing over this, WTF. I got your response for your other art and I suppose I just felt I psychically transmitted just how much love I have for this.

1) It's Spirited Away. This movie is my favourite movie of my LIFE. EVAR. And now there's fanart for it, OH MY GOD. And it is amazing fanart!
2) HAKU. AND THIS PART OF THE MOVIE. FROM A FACE-FRONT ANGLE. This is like, the fanart equivalent of when a ficcer takes a certain bit of canon and writes from between the lines. *dies*
3) Love the hair, the strands, the straightness of it. Love the shading, so delicate, so pale, so spiritual. Love the delicacy of his fingers. Love the petals creating dimension. Love the clarity of his eyes.

LOVE. EVERYTHING. *cries*

I'm not familiar with this fandom or the character you have depicted here. However, that in no way detracts from how absolutely gorgeous this is. Wonderfully detailed and beautiful.:)
