Holy shit.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[alfrecht.livejournal.com]

You do such amazing work...! :)

_{May be a while off, but I wonder if teriel and lupabitch can be talked into having you do some artwork for the cover of one or both of the Megalithica books I hope to have finished in the next year...Will keep you apprised on that. One is a theology book, the other is the queer magic anthology...But anyway, I have to finish this other werewolf academic book in the meantime!}

Considering we've had her do work on my stuff before, I see no issues on our end :)

[ladyriv.livejournal.com]

Wow, you do some amazing ink work.. what kind of pens do you use?

How long did that take you to do?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I use artline drawing system pens, which are lightfast and properly waterproof (which they need to be, because I use several layers of watercolour pencils in the colouring stage).

And... all up, the inking alone probably took about 8 hours, but it's been stretched out over about a week and a half.

Wow! That is gorgeous!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[lupabitch.livejournal.com]

Holy cripes. How many hours have you put into this so far?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Um, about 8?

[bodylove.livejournal.com]

oh my God. You have incredible patience. (and of course incredible talent!) so beautiful. I love love love love it!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[skitty-kitty.livejournal.com]

No wonder your hands hurt. Looks fantastic!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[scarletwildfire.livejournal.com]

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[shadows-wolf06.livejournal.com]

Wow.

This might be my favorite piece of yours yet.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I think it might be mine too. :)

[zuki-san.livejournal.com]

Um. Wow.

*whistles*

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Eee. Yay! :)

[darakat-ewr.livejournal.com]

Ok you take your art to this insane high level then somehow take it higher... How? (is jealous)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Well I'll have to plateau at some point, I'm sure.

[firehauke.livejournal.com]

damn woman, you insane! Looks gorgeous!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[ellenmillion.livejournal.com]

LOVING the dots! (And this piece as a whole)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Hoorah for dots!!! Boo for the wrist cramps they sometimes give me.

Mad detailing. Beautiful, and delicious.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :D

[halfapersona.livejournal.com]

That detail is capital-A Awesome!

When you first sketched this out I had an idea it would be my favourite piece of yours, and it is definitely still shaping up to be the top of the list.

Simply stunning.

^_^

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I think it might be one of my faves too, if I can pull off the colouring. :)

[starla80.livejournal.com]

OMG OMG OMG! If this is for sale, I'm gunna have to find some money from somewhere. Or get a print. Or steal it from your house ;P

This is amazing work, Pia. Well done.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Heh, I recommend stealing it from my house. ;)

[toeknuckles.livejournal.com]

Holy shit you're good.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Eeeee. *squee* Eeeee.

[aleia-kali.livejournal.com]

This is stunning, your talent is just amazing.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[earthguardian.livejournal.com]

epic.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

IT is, indeed, EPIC.

[nightlove.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I might have to be saving up to buy this original if I can, if someone else doesn't beat me to it. ;)

I love so much of your art, but not only is even just the inking of this piece amazing, it is (as already mentioned) one of my favourite fairy-tales ever. Stunning. I love the emotion in this piece, the touching noses (it is something I do to those I am very close to.)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

It'll be higher than $600 and lower than $700 at this point. I thought it was going to go over $700, but the inking didn't take as long as I thought it would.

[bewylderbeast.livejournal.com]

Just wow.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Ee, thank you. :)

[secrets-n-lies.livejournal.com]

woah. is this one going to be up for sale?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Yes. So far it'll be above 600 / below 700, but it won't get its fixed price until after colouring.

[anrui-ichido.livejournal.com]

O_O

So. Much. Detail! I freaking love pointillism. Not, you know, actually DOING it sometimes, but it looks amazing. Your work has such awesome texture to it!

*loves on this*

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I love pointillism, but I wish I could pay people to do it for me, Lol.

[donnalotus.livejournal.com]

Ooooh I'm loving it :) This is one of my favourite stories from childhood

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[mirrorred-star.livejournal.com]

Holy whoa the detail shots look awesome!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I love detail shots, I'm too lazy to do them that often.
