Beware of nekkid Juri on a chair x3

I finally finished this.  I still actually don't like it, but I promise you all that the physical prints look startlingly good.

That's a very cool collage, rhyaniwyn. It's hard to tell if it's digital or traditional. How did you make it?

It actually started out traditional, for an art class at community college.  I'm way more of a digital artist, though, so it had a lot of issues.  But I liked the idea and kind of wanted to prove to myself that it would have been better if I'd done it on the computer.  I used Adobe Illustrator to trace out Utena and the elephant head, then to create the 'swatches' of colored paper and to trace the shape of some rose petals.  Then I ported it into Photoshop for greater control over the layer blending and transparency.  I made just a little use of some grunge brushes I made (splattered paint onto paper, scanned in).  The poetry in the very back layer looks strangely like it was actually ripped from a book in the print--I was surprised and kind of happy about that, since that was what I actually did (ripped up phone book pages) in the original traditional media collage!

Thanks!  I think it's really very bizzare and I'm just not sure how I feel about it aesthetically.  But I worked on it twice, so I'm not willing to scrap it, even though I'm still not sure if I *like* it.

Awww, she so sweet   For some reason I like the "unfinished" version much better.  The colored version is -- I don't know -- maybe a shade too Uncanny Valley for me?  She looks a little like an anime RealDoll.

Yeah, I like the unfinished better, too, which is why I posted it.

Have I mentioned lately that there's not enough Anthy fanart around?

I need to subscribe to this thread so I won't miss stuff. Dollface, I adore your Wakaba. You captured her essence perfectly, the genki just jumps out of the computer screen at me like an overaffectionate dog or something.

Anji, don't sell yourself short. That's a lovely Anthy, I especially like how she looks coy as she pulls the sword out of herself...it seems a little more naughty somehow.

And Maarika...what can I say? Your work is delightful as always, but why does Utena look a litle uncertain here? She seems troubled... Thanks for sharing.


and for you all.

That is so pretty! I love it!
Do you do any sort of artwork commissions?

I would, but I don't have a scanner. I asked my friend to scan it in for me. ^.^;


I love doing requests as long as peeps don't mind it taking forever. ;)
