Lylithe consults her ancient spell books

"That is fabulous, I love it. Just what I had hoped for. She looks just right, the fang necklace is a neat touch to hint at her vampyric nature. The nightdress is perfect - covering but not completely. The books look very good. Being a vampire she's a lot stronger than she looks so they are no trouble. Ancient arcane tomes should be on the large size.The wolf detailing on the chair and fire place work really well and the Raven perched outside the window completes the witch, wolf, corvid trio.......

Lylithe - detail

...I like the lighting and the steam rising off the mulled wine, as for the candles - magical flames don't bend with the wind perhaps? Love the bookcase behind her - another hint at her arcane nature. The colours are so much richer than seen on screen and the whole piece has a great atmosphere. The lady herself is perfect and probably one of your best so far. Thanks again for all your work on this - once more it resulted in a wonderful image." Ian Allen

Francesca, The General's Mistress. Naples 1813

"Wow! That is excellent, I love it. The dress has worked out a treat and the colour combinations and the pelisse work really well, love the lacework and braiding. Her face has come out well too and I like the way she's looking off to the side as if someone has just said something.
The accessories all look great, love the colback and her name engraved on the scabbard. The background is good, I especially like the ships in the harbour adding to the period feel. The rest of the scene places her in...

The Soldiers of Islam prepare for Holy War c.1082

"Working with Chris is a great pleasure. Throughout the process, from concept to completion, there is a clear professional attitude towards a project, combined with a genuine desire to create a fine piece of art. Couple this with the stage by stage description of both the process and reasoning behind each stage, it is wonderful to gain an insight into how a piece is gradually brought to life. I very much look forward to our next project together”.

General "Grumble" Jones before Fairfield 3 July 1863

"Wow, that looks incredible! I like being able to hover over areas of the work and see every detail of it. I like how you incorporated those Laurel Brigade emblems on several individuals. Many other small details such as sabers shown below the belly of horses on opposite sides, tin cups on haversacks, just to name a few are also appreciated."

The Archduke and Duchess of Beerstein

"Nicely done! You do the Duke and Duchess Proud."
"Well done Chris, a lovely rendition with lots of lace."
"Superb!"
"A beautiful, meticulous and delicate work."
"These are truly wonderful works of art and such a clever idea as well."

Hussarette Aides de Camp in Spain c. 1810

"I love the painting of the ADCs, I keep pausing what I'm doing to have another look and always see something I've missed before - I'm very pleased with it - thanks once again."
"It's a really good picture, you can be proud of it."
"Very much your masterwork, I think. It's almost like a painting by [Jean-Leon] Gerome with all the orientalist style encrusted detail. Gorgeous!"

"It looks fantastic! We're very pleased with it. How clever you are!!"
