Flight with the Carp King

This is my very belated birthday picture for my twin sister Brooke. Please excuse the poor quality of the scan, the paper I drew it on was bigger than my scanner. ^-^;;

Only part about this I don't like is the hair. Everything else I am quite happy with.

This picture is very shiny in real life.... >3>

Time Taken:
Sketch, 1 hour
Inking, 2 hours
Markering, 7 hours
Detailing, 1.5 hours
Total time taken, 11.5 hours (not including the several days spent agonizing over the fear of messing it up)

Media:
Sakura Micron pens, Prismacolor markers, Sharpie markers, Art Markers, no-name metalic acrylics

I am tired and stiff and DAMMIT IT'S DONE!!!!!!! *headdesk*

Please do advanced critiques. I spent too much time on this for you to say "How cute!" or "Awesome!" Rawrbasil....
