This is beautiful. Oh my, you did great, especially for such a large piece.

 That's rather beautiful :D

I just think that "Never" and "Trust" are a bit too close together (Though still totally readable)

Elegant line art ! On the other hand perhaps the AA could be improved in some places ( her hair for example ).

i was bored and did an edit with warm colors for curtains in case u r interested: http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e199/sharprm/sea.png

Manjaman: I agree about the arm, actually. I was trying to stylize it in such a way that she (although dead) seemed to be reclining on the waves (I was listening to a song when I started; the first line says: "sweet annabelle/as seen reclining on an ocean swell" and I liked the imagery) rather than being exactly washed among them--a happy medium, you know? But I don't think I pulled it off entirely--you can see that the hair isn't behaving exactly as it would either, although I think I handled that slightly better and it's closer to what I wanted. It was educational, though! I ended up erasing a knee that was showing through the foam for the same reason.

More thanks are in order too :)

 Thats some really awesome AA.

I just tried to make something very simple with an similar style, and ended in a little fail...

This work is really inspirating...

Thanks :)

that water is blowing my mind!! beautiful work :D

Awesomeness!

Incredible work!!! Job well done :] --> FAV'D 

Wonderfully beautiful!

Would be even more so if I found a way to relate the drapes to some boat, but I failed.

I expect to see more goodies coming from you.

Well, see you in november top pixel arts

Strange that we could see her right arm behind the wave...

Oh my oh my. : O

Yes, it's pubic hair. :o Scandalous.

Positively dandy! <3

d9nis: Yes, I used a tablet. I switched back to a mouse for some of the fiddlier AA, but it's mostly tablet :)

Thanks everyone :D

Are those few yellow pixels in between her legs some bush or is it accidental?

Very nice anyway.

You're not the only one who makes pixel-art in oekaki. :D
