An old pic that sat around unfinished for the longest time. Inspired by this awesome pose (the bottom one) by *fevereon: [link]

I had some trouble with the foreshortening on this.

The usual, start to finish in photoshop.

I love the sense of motion in this, and the expression is wonderful. You can tell she's greatly enjoying this and she finds it entirely effortless, which gives the entire image a bit of some dissonance, since she appears so serene and relaxed, while actually performing something quite deadly. Great job!

OMG WOW. I still get surprized by how amazing of an artist u are. Wow this is just so awesome! Its so beautiful & flavored with action. Its elegant, energetic, striking......I could go on.
I just LOVE how u made the swords blur to imply speed, & the whirling shape of her garments & hair as shes spinning just make it so much more awesome.
