Artist's Notes: When I first read the request for "strange costumes" my first thought was steampunk!DDS. This might not be exactly what you were hoping for, and it turned out quite a bit darker than I wanted it to be. So, sorry about that!

Ooooh, BEAUTIFUL!

This is GORGEOUS. Like, jaw-droppingly so. Your coloring is amazing, I love the way the light is swirling around him! Really great stuff.

[derawr.livejournal.com]

Nice! I love the way you drew the blue splashes! And he looks so intense. :D

OH MYSTERY ARTIST, ILU ♥ I haven't been having internet access the last few days, so I was extra thrilled to get a phone call from friend telling me that my Yuletart gift was posted and that it was pretty damn awesome. AND PRETTY DAMN AWESOME THIS IS ♥ So many things to love-- like the fact that you went for Steampunk (YESSSS), and I like how the vest kind of fastens the way that Serph's costume normally does in-game. Also, the subtle details like the grey pinstripe, or the different buttons. AND THE BLUE LIGHT OF IMMINENT TRANSFORMATION is always a plus in my book. This is seriously fantastic, thank you so much!

I must now scroll up and stare at his face some more (the way you drew it, ahhhh *_*)

Oh, this is very cool! I love the steampunk edge :-)

love the glowing effectsm the sinister glare. IDK the fandom, but I love this piece. :D

[chrismm.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, this is amazing. The bright glow splashing there, with the more muted colors of the character and the background. And that awesome outfit, I want it so bad. I love how the piece has a bit of a Mucha/art nouveau touch to it, and yet it has such a different feel, with the somber colors and the fierce stare. I just really love this one.

Oh lord that is FANTASTIC. I love the special effects on the face and around his body. That's wonderful. Wowo.
And the look in his eyes.

Ohhh and the texture on the vest WOW WOW
It's great fun.

[red-eft.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow! I really love the blue splashy things- did you use a custom brush? And I like the subtle texture in the background.

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

This is SO EPIC. Love how you lighted it, completely dependent on his blue glowy powers and the gorgeous symmetry of this composition and him being so perfectly centred on the canvas works so well because it totally hooks me and compels me to just stare, hypnotized. I love his pretty pretty emo face and the lovely textures you use to pull it all together!

[dualbunny.livejournal.com]

*Wow*. The coloring and lighting and textures, oh my! :D I *adore* how you've taken such a clean image with such simple lines and created something so very rich with your textures and shading. Fantastic piece!

Re: !!!!!!!

Yay, I'm so glad you like it, even though it's not very Christmas-y :P

I love AUs and alternate costumes and things too, so I was really excited when I saw your prompts. And I had a lot of fun with his costume.

*hugs* Happy belated holidays!
