RedWingsDragon's Crystal

Copy/pasted from the linearts description:

"Here's gift for of his character Crystal.

I decided to start this piece in appreciation of ~RedWingsDragon. In my opinion, the dude is a DA MVP.
He always takes the time to leave a comment on artists work when he favs a piece. ALWAYS!

I've noticed this first on my old account a few years back. Than I starting noticing his comments (which I'm sure he's known for by now. ) on a LOT of work from some (most) of the artists I watched at the time.

And since I came back to DA, I've noticed that hasn't changed. I have the utmost respect for the guy. And if he doesn't know, he should know a lot of people here on DA appreciate what he does.

So this piece is a Thank You to you, ~RedWingsDragon.
You are cool people.

And if anyone read this whole thing, if you get a "Good work here!" from the man, remember to thank him.

"

This piece took a little more time than expected. But I like how the colors came out on the character.

I wrestled with the background a bit, but finally settled on this one.

Other than that, not much else to say.
Let me know what you think.
