Zodiak Army part three>> as always, please full view!! Please, do me a favor!!

For the story behind this serie and the meaning of it , please read the description of these:
Part one [link] Aries and Sagittarius
Part two [link] Leo and Aquarius

Pisces:
I had so much fun drawing this!! I remembered how much i loove mermaids, when i was i child i never wanted to be a princess, but always a mermaid... *sigh* And drawing under-water-floating effect is really easy: just move your pencil like the way you test your pen. Pisces is very sensitive and compassionate, kind and selfless, but also an 'escapist and idealistic' as i read somewhere, so i thought she was the kind of person who doesn't want to fight at all. She feels really bad about this war, and doesn't see the purpose of it... I gave her gills in her sides, and she is ofcourse a water sign.

Libra:
She's an air sign, so that's where the wings came from! But someway she can handle herself under water as well, but then she isn't affected by the water.. don't ask...
She's charming, romantic, sociable, diplomatic and likes pretty things, so i gave her a lot of jewelry and less usual scales, more like 'powers' she keeps in balance... SHe's also a bit indecisive and easily influenced, so she doesn't really know what to think about this war. SHe's also flirtatious, so i gave her a big front :)

I'm half way!! Six to go...
Pencil and paper, color, background and lighteffects in photoshop. Comments are very welcome as always!!! :D

wow, the colours and the composition, simply beautiful ^_^ Like Aries and Sagittarius I really find both characters enchanting for different reasons, and you've done such a wonderful job on Pisces fins and frills. Great gills, and I like the webbing between the fingers ^_^ I love Libra's jewellery, especially her scales earrings :)

Definitely my favourite of the set so far

This one came out beautifully. I rather like it. That and the fact that you aren't just doing the zodiac, but a bit of a story. Nice.

well, i said i couldnt wait for the next instalment of characters and I am not disapointed at all, these new characters are just brill (my favs the libra one cuz im libra). Plus she cools like a beautyful character, very very well drawn. You are making very defiant progresstion in your style, making it more your own, very impressive and theres still more to come!?! Cant wait

Comment: Very very good character drawings, i just feel abit let down by the background. I like the kind of underwater effect at the bottom, dark looks like the underwater at a deep depth but the top half feels abit empty. maybe if you had some white spots for stars maybe a slight glow from them it might have added soemthing extra to it. but as it is still very very good, you focus allot on the characters which does pay of in spades!
