Oh my goodness. Before I jump into a tangent, to spare my own neck, the lineart is partially not mine. My friend wanted a drawing of his character of Ragnarok Online along side of another friend who is also on said game. Long story short, he tried to get a comission, all he got was a half-assed line art, he wanted it finished and colored. So for the small price of Sohee bells for my huntress' head, I told him I'd do it.
Thusly, I colored it, and I fixed a LOT of the line art because it was really funky in places. This was 30+ hours of work in photoshop cs2. I haven't updated in so long that since then I've gotten photoshop and a tablet. Huzzah, life is good.
I know its not a huge, elaborate background, but I didn't use the gradient tool either- I used my own fade with my own colors and went with it. I really like how it turned out- I didn't want it to be too distracting from the central image; that's what the fire is for XD
Other than what I've mentioned (and I know this is long and drawn out XD) since this is one of my first works in photoshop, any comments/compliments on it wold be wonderful- especially the clothes shading (didn't want to go too crazy on the skin considering it's anime-esque).

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
