Artist's Comments

... aka Helena

So many titles for this... well actually 2, but the original title "Simplicity is Overrated" is from a thread on Vexels.net from talking with ~fdlinda with regards to me using gradients to try and make a more simple looking vexel... which was the reason why I have been playing with gradients a lot recently.

Helena is more of a reference to her make up style - which is inspired by the music video for My Chemical Romance's "Helena" (ps: I am going to see MCR in November!!!).

This time around with my experimenting I have using gradients in all aspects of the vexel - bar 8 layers, where were all base layers - not shading! So I am _very_ happy with this.

The stock came from ~Lamia-stock and more specifically I used [link] as the reference photo. I have editted it here and there by giving her lip gloss, altering her make up slightly and giving her a labret piercing (oh I miss mine :( )

I hope you like it - it's one of my favourites to date now :D
