Artist's Comments

Mouse, Paint Shop Pro, a good 6 hours or so.





Also known as Cupid. If you don't know who that is, get outta my office!

I was beginning to spent too long trying to get the proportions right, when I stopped and asked myself why I was doing so. The answer I gave myself was to stop people on dA from nitpicking, but that's going to happen anyway!

Enjoy! :D

Portions on cupid on cupid are never right because his legs and atms are always so small x3

OMG his heads hugggee!! Nah joking, proportions seem just about perfect to me (then again, what do i know?) I love the background, the grainy texture really helps Eros stand out.
I also love the smoothness of the shading on his skin.
You shoulda drew his lil bow with the heart arrows, hehe. :D

I really like lighting effects (as usual) as well as the forest setting. Proportions look excellent, but his posture seems a bit off. It looks like he's leaning a little too far back.

Other than that though, this is really good. Nice job! :+fav:

so soft, and so nicely done, in such short time (to me)

the disposition is really good, and proportions are nice enough O_o I don't understand how you can see touble in this pic >_< but since you seem so perfectionist, maybe I should add the thigh is maybe a very little bit too big (I mean it stroke my eyes very slightly)
But it's really awesome, so a fave, and :heart: :heart:

Eros is often shown off balance or slightly levitating off the ground. I assume this is because of his wings or perhaps an ability to float/hover. He rarely seems affected by gravity so I utilised that here to make him look unnerved. In other words, it was done on purpose ;)

Thanks! :hug:
