This here's the full view of my entry to the Masquerade challenge!

I cut this down and removed the bg for the entry because I wanted to focus more on the masks...

The inspiration for this picture was Rin and Len's song "The Dance Site of Darkness" very cool song!!

PLEASE view in high resolution to see the details of the mask!!

hmmm, well tried a new colouring style for the hair and clothes...definitely going to stick with this style...I kinda like it ^^ the lights in the bg are supposed to represent either cameras flashing or the lights at the masquerade party...either way I needed a sharp light source from the left according to the shades I picked ^^' the rose on rin's hair is a brush in GIMP that I painted a bit...the mask design is entirely my own...no references for this picture!

enjoy ^^
