Fairy

Fairies are known more for their ability to produce light, rather than their wings, which are difficult and painful to develop. In the star-plane, an alternate world hidden in the stars, their lights are the only ones that shine. Once hunted for their hearts, which witches could use to produce magic potions, they fled to magnificent cities hidden in the forests, and have lived in seclusion since.

Tried some new things with this one. Am somewhat pleased with the result. Had a lot of fun creating that ball of light
Update: Fixed some lighting issues.

Stocks used:
faestock is the lovely model: Sibyl36
The two textures are from Sirius-sdz (Texture 606, which made up the background) and zummerfish (rust and stardust textures, which made up the ground)
I also used CindysArt's stock for her hair: Hair Strands Stock
The pretty ball was made from two redheadstock brushes (Sparklies Photoshop Brushes and Light Swirls Brushes) and a brush from kuschelirmel-stock (Star Brushes)

Thank you~
