awesome progress animation. It looks so long.
And very nice outcome.

Great idea and flawless execution!

I have to say, while this didn't earn the #1 monthly spot, it was surely my favorite. Awesome job!

Just beautiful... and those broken bulbs by her feet feel so melancholy--I hope it's not a foreboding of things to come

Thanks. No idea how many hours I spent working on it, but most evenings over a two week period, so about twice as long as I intended.

Holy mother frig....I thought I saw some cool stuff earlier but this is A++. May I ask how long this took you?

I love it!

Mirage - Hehe, oddly enough, it was the first thing I thought of. I had been thinking about drawing something not creepy for a change, so maybe it was that.

I thought light from the light bulbs in it would give the shadow under the boquet that shape, but maybe it depends on how far out you imagine the bulbs to be placed? It's the first time I've tried something with this many light sources, so I'm sure it's not quite right in places. I didn't have much time to look into it further, so I focused on finishing it instead. 

Where's the blood and gore and scary? ;)

I like it very much... my only nitpick would be that the shadow from the bowl of flowers is too big and shaped incorrectly, but that's probably because i've been staring at the picture for too long :)

At first I thought it looked a bit too much like metal. Then I looked at the title.

Thanks, guys! Glad you liked it, and I hope it'll look even better when it's all as polished.

RoboBOT - Good points. Initially, I intended for some bulbs to have a slightly different hue than the rest, and I wanted to suggest that color in the bulbs on the ground, but I wanted to keep it limited to 16 colors as a bit of a challenge to myself, so it ended up looking a bit more harsh than it should have and doesn't really make sense now. I'll also see if I can add a bit more color to the leaves.

Fool - Thanks, that does help. I'll try and darken the metal a bit.

Un diseño espectacular, bien concebido y realizado magistralmente.

  5/5 and fav

really great!

fool's edit is superior but regardless, awesome work.  You get my vote! all your work is stunning by the way keep it up.

Great sense of lighting.=) A bit confusing the metal parts - it feels like glass, probably higher contrast might help.=)
Fabric is simply awesome.

Edit:
Sloppy try. See if it makes any sense.=)

great work, i love it!

Definatly got my vote ;)

Nice details with the folds on the vail and the dress.

Yes! I've learned to get excited when Arachne has submitted another piece :D
This looks great. An issue for me is the orange outline of the bulbs on the ground. If they aren't emitting light, then I don' think the outline should be orange. Also, I feel like the leaves in the bouquet that are next to the bulbs should have a stronger, orange highlight on them. The lack of it seems to make the orange bulbs float in front of the blue background.
Overall, though, I love it!

Nah, it doesn't look like pillowing to me.

Great work Arachne. I love the colors!

fuck u! xD is really good :P but the right side in the face emm... i no can say, i are bad speacking english xD but is pillow shading? :S
