Wow, where to begin with this? Some people may say that this kind of image, a woman as the focus in fantasy style manip, is done to death. When it comes to this image I would disagree. This is a cut above the rest, it really stands out from the crowd. I saw this in my message centre and was drawn to it. I just had to view it

The pose fits so nicely with the scene. I can image that she's either just jumped up onto that ledge or is about to turn around and jump down. The holes in her tights adds more depth to this little imagined back-story in that it looks like she's just been fighting, or escaped.

I am a little bias toward blue deviations because it's my favourite colour, but I think you've done a marvellous job with the colour theme in this. Everything matches perfect in colour. The light from the sun is being filtered to blue by the clouds, which you can see in the highlights on her hair and arms.

Your technique for this is fantastic. If I didn't know this was a manip I could certainly believe it was painted. You've given it a soft quality that tends to come with paintings, but also there are lots of lovely sharp details, like her eyes and jewellery.

This piece has certainly had an impact on me. I want to keep looking at it all day
