Wow, this is gorgeous! I love it. It just... I keep staring. So beautiful. I wish I could say something more than that, but it's all I have, this is just so mesmerizing.

OH, so very very pretty! I absolutely love the idea of bug!John living out there somewhere and am excited to read the story someone came up with! (Your creature is sooo cute!)

[chkc]

Thank you! The creature is based on nudibranchs, which I think are adorable. :) :)

love your alien creature and alien-looking John Sheppard. what a cool piece of art! I *really* like your alien, and that you gave him such and expressive form!

[chkc]

Thank you! I admit that the alien creature is inspired by an earth based one: nudibranchs! :)

Beautiful! The translucent character of the light through the forest and of John's friend is remarkable. I love the foggy blue greens, and the warm orange bristles of the antlers. The background -- the grasses, the trees reflecting in the water -- creates a wonderful mood. And I really like how we can only see the unchanged part of John's face through the creature. They seem very affectionate with each other.

[chkc]

Thank you. I am so glad that you like the background! :) It isn't really the point of the drawing, but it takes so long to complete.

Oh, this is lovely, and so intriguing! You've created a beautiful world.

[chkc]

Gorgeous! The creature reminds me of some of the more outlandish seahorses or sea dragons.
