Artist's Comments

Drawn over the LONG (even more so because of the lack of internet) bank holiday weekend.

I finished watching Princess Tutu, hence my need to draw ballerinas intensified, so I transferred that to Odin Sphere. I really want to submit this to :iconcarneaglariel:'s OS doujin, but it's kinda small and I might need to draw in Velvet, Ingway, Mercedes and Oswald in order to be completely satisfied with it XD

(I've just got the most gorgeous red tutu design in mind for Velvet :3)

Anyway, I was really heavily emulating the game's artwork style for this. Tried out OC4's spoon pen tool. Works pretty well for a looser kinda of lineart.

The title is a reference to the balletic themes of Odin Sphere and Gwendolyn just has to be the white swan, Odette (at least in my mind...).

I absolutely love the tutu design. The pose-work is fantastic; it's both natural and real looking, with just the right amount of artistic-feel. Good work, as always!

The colors and pose are beautiful and stunning, but the dancer should be in more of a lunge, making the colarbone more level with the extended leg. Over all, it's a lovely piece of work. I'd love to see the others you have planned. I used to be a ballerina myself.=D

Same here. I quit when we got on to more serious pointe work though. My ankles aren't strong enough.

I was thinking that she was more in a Russian attitude (my terminology is rusty... D8).

Well, it was meant to be a quick sketch, so I'm leaving it as is XP

Thanks! I didn't really modify much of the original design. Just got some good refs from [link] for the skirt and some of the pose.

Yay, someone who loves ballet too! :3
