The Demonic Succubus

Description

So this is what happens when I reflect on my art, and feel the need to push things further... Damnit, I hate it when I set a new bar for myself because next time I'll have to try to do even better than this... really improving can be a pain in the ass. Even worse, sometimes improvement becomes fear because you bar yourself from trying... Alas, that was not the case this time, and instead decided to draw Murasaki, even when I felt this image was a total failure. It happens. I wanted to make it all beastly with trees and stuff, but meh, that didn't work as planned. So, here's a showcase of Murasaki, one of the first OCs i began drawing after joining DeviantArt.

This piece is remarkably eye catching mostly because of the way you have the shadow playing across the character.

Nearly all the reasoning for giving you five stars is because of the shadow and lighting effects. Not to mention the small details such as adding fingernails, and the folds in the clothing.

The one and only reason I gave you less than five stars on originality is because I feel lately more and more people are creating or redrawing succubus OC's so basically you really have five stars all the way around.

The things that I like the most are the wings, eyes, and the lighting of the piece. These three things add a lot to the quality and effective memorability of the piece.

As always I hope you found this as a constructive and informative critique.
