Description eeep o_O
its juliet from Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet....
this is when Juliet takes the vial/potion that makes her look like she's dead as she tries to get away from marrying Paris and wait for Romeo..yeahhh
i never expected this drawing to become such a full blown thing...well, i know a lot of peoples works are way better buy yeahhh
i'm reading Romeo and Juliet in english...so thats how this came about XD

the hair drove me insane, if anyone can make it better please do so
if you're wondering what that little thing says, its what friar laurence says to juliet about the vial and stuff:

"Take thou this vial, being then in bed,
And this distilled liquor drink thou off:
When presently through all thy veins shall run
A cold and drowsy humour; for no pulse
Shall keep his native progress, but surcease;
No warmth, no breath, shall testify thou livest;
The rose in thy lips and cheeks shall fade
To paly ashes; thy eyes' windows fall,
Like death, when he shuts up the day of life;
Each part, deprived of supple government,
Shall, stiff and stark and cold, appear like death"

I ain't much of an artist, but i think that the hair turned out fine. I'm also not much of a Shakespeare fan but this is good.

Her dress is stunning. Hair is okay, could use a little more flow, more wave maybe. In the play, she only has one rin, and that is a ring that Romeo gave her to place on her left ring finger. Just paying attention to detail. Otherwise, very well done.

Ame, this is awesome D:

I REALLY love the design of her dress, the details are so many and so beautiful. The cg looks amazing, especially i like the cg of her hair.
I like flower she has around her neck, and the ribbons she have around her waist. The outfit is just really great. Because it deserves it.

Oh and.. *shuffles feet* May i use the derss sometime? If i credit you?

I think it looks good. You have a nice way to draw the fabric, the dress looks fine. If I were to say something about this draw, the only wrong it has is that there's no puchline. Well done, but not impressive.

ame-hime In reply to Tio-Cao [2005-04-23 18:19:01 +0000 UTC]

puchline? i don't understand. if you explain it to me, then i'll be sure to incorporate it into my next drawings

Tio-Cao In reply to ame-hime [2005-04-23 19:50:09 +0000 UTC]

uhm... how to say it... puchline, like when you see a draw and say "WOW!" or "it isn't the best draw of the world, and it's even shaby, but I love the feelings it irradiates, so I like it!". some sort of. that bay be the only thing I don't like about this draw, I don't even have any problem with the hair. It's well done, but no puch line.

The hair...it just needed a tad more flow, but the whole pic is awesome!! Aside from the paint residue on some of the edges, don't worry, it happens...

You did an amazing job! Congrats!
