Artist's Comments

Jago Guarding Bren, drawn as a gift for Ms. Cherryh, as she writes yet another Foreigner book. That's 11, folks! Whee!

And I ... think it's done, anyway.

It's been sitting on my desk, and I've been fiddling with it for over a month now. And I plan to stare at it for a few more days, and if it still looks right, I'm going to mail it off.

Gads, how nervous I let myself get about these things sometimes. Sheesh.

Tah.

Durn it -- already see something that I should have fixed. Razzer-frazzer. :(

Very well done!

Light and Dark are both extremes, only from the shadows can we see both sides.

Happens to me all the time :)

Jago is looking anxious (therefore it must be something big going down!).

I love all the extra touches - their hair
(pretty!), the earpiece, Bren's lace and his bag. Jago's gun is awesome.

I wish I could say I can see what you should have fixed but I can't. I think it looks great.

Heh - I am really proud of her gun.

I studied from several reference photos and tried my durndest to get it just right. I'm usually horrible at guns, and was quite surprised when I didn't ruin it. (me so happy with the gun!)

Thank you! Now that I've decompressed a bit, I'm starting to be very happy with it. Though I want to work on lace. Not happy with my lace yet.

Thankies. It was just a spot on Bren's (the brown haired fellow's) hair. I'd used a bit of white ink to make a curl and forgot to stripe in the hair color. All done now. Though I haven't yet updated it.

(((sighs))) In a few days. Fer sure. Just gotta make sure I have everything.
