I'm not completely happy with this, but I'm running out of time to finish my portfolio [link]
This is my first real attempt at any kind of environment, and a first for lineless painting without copying a photo reference. The girl is my original character Chisa, and the island is the ChiGarden. There should be a purple monkey in there somewhere, but I forgot about him and too tired to add him in now
I still have a couple of days left before I have to hand this and the other pieces in, so if anyone can see problems and hopefully knows a good way to fix them I'll hopefully have time to tweak it. In particular the grass and the base of the island bug me, but I've tried without succeeding to fix them =/ Help is very much appreciated!
Oh and yes, the detail bits are pretty much the same size as the actual thing, which is a bit stupid... again, too tired to change it tonight! Will probably do so with the changes.
EDIT: Redid the base of the island and added some more shadows here and there =3 I think I can call this finished now so I'll stop bugging you all with it!

Community News125 The 2008 Bolt Award$lolly
 reports, 22h 2m agoThis year, the Second Annual recipient of the illustrious Bolt Award is someone who, like its namesake has somehow magically been a part of deviantART since before there even was a deviantART. Pretty fantastic trick to pull off wouldn't you say? This person is someone some of you may be familiar with in recent months, promoting devWear, running the Holiday Card Project, campaigning to keep her favorite TV shows on the air and many other things. And the award goes to... 117 Prints: Celebrating 8 Years of Art$chix0r
