This is Paradise, an OC created by both my brother and myself a while ago. She's a genie, and apparently found her way onto paper after about a year long art block. lol FUN!

Well, originally, she has a blue-gray skin tone, but after seeing how much of her is blue based (the shade of her clothing, her hair.. ....that's all.. lol), I opted to give her a more normal skin tone, something on the tanner side..

Anyway, this is the first piece I've completed in a veeerrry long time, since around May of last year when my comp crashed, and it was HARD. I was so out of my element (and still feel I am), and *may* come back to edit this one a later when I have a better feel for this. Some lighting issues, a fairly bland background, and that waist.... So! Enjoy!

Paradise/Tengoku (C) and me

EDIT: That waist line name me soooo nauseous and it look HORRIBLE and totally exaggerated that I had had HAD to go back and do SOMETHING to it, so I re-did a little bit of the picture. It's not the *same*, but hopefully a LITTLE better. ...anyway, I feel better having done it, lol!
