Well, well, well! I'd like to eagerly welcome theOtaku back into my life! I went through a bad computer crash in 08' and forgot about the site as it was in my favorites! I love everyone here, and I'm glad to be back!

Anyway, onto the art..
This is a representation of my own experimenting with my new Paint Shop Pro. I found the new 'Challenge' section on the site, and it is G R E A T, along with the other cool additions to the site!

The Contest: This is my original character, Amorette, dressed in a purdy mermaid costume! Typical outfit for a hero for one of my characters. The weapon in this picture appears to be just a small bottle to the eyes of the beholder, but beware! It contains a noxious mixture of amethyst stone - appealing to the senses, but deadly if sipped. This ties into my new fanfic that I will hopefully be writing soon. :)

The statistics.
Time Spent: 1 hour for the lineart
5 hours for the coloring
Medium: Jasc Paint Shop Pro!
Inspired By: Ultraviolet Sound

Comment if you like, or otherwise. I'm open to respectful criticism, the same I'd give anyone else.

Thanks guys, and I'm really glad to be back.
