your style is so unique and breath-taking.
i think the only critique i can give just a small pop of somewhere. maybe like a matte pink or dark,dark red on the lips.
but how it is right now, is absolutely wonderful.

yes, i see what you mean. i'm currently finishing off some other work first, but i will come back to this picture (and some of the others) for sure, and i'll definitely keep your critique in mind thanks!

Dang, that would look so cool if you did that shiny on matte effect with her hair and her dress. Of course it looks cool already, and that wouldn't really work through the computers, but still.

I honestly don't know what to say man, beside that I love it. It's so charming....she's sexy indeed. Looks like art nouveau and gothic are mixing together, feels like distorted jazz.

thanks a lot dude, glad to hear it!
i'm really happy with your impression/interpretation art nouveau, gothic and distorted jazz mixed does justice to the mood i was hoping to get across with this one

I don't usually like gothic-style pieces, but this is really great

captain-amazing In reply to adurna-ebrithil [2009-06-04 08:14:34 +0000 UTC]

haha thanks! but i was going for more of a 'dark cabaret with a paint-textured fashion-shoot in the rain twist' rather than 'gothic'!

adurna-ebrithil In reply to captain-amazing [2009-06-04 09:54:45 +0000 UTC]

haha, my apologies, good sir! Well, I can also see the 'dark cabaret with a paint-textured fashion-shoot in the rain twist' in there too. haha

This is really truly gorgeous. I love her skin... I like the amount of black space.

I guess I might play around with the texture of the lips. They look a little...dead and liney?

And maybe you could try doing something more with the eyes.

captain-amazing In reply to MissusHow [2009-06-04 03:32:12 +0000 UTC]

yes, i think i will try and play around with the eyes and lips some more. i agree, they need to be refined a bit. more contrast perhaps. or something

thanks!

MissusHow In reply to captain-amazing [2009-06-04 18:27:44 +0000 UTC]

Maybe try adding a splash of colours... mostly because the lips look just a bit dead.

By far one of my favorite pieces from you. My only complaint would be that there may be to much black space.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

captain-amazing In reply to DarkZrobe [2009-06-04 03:42:26 +0000 UTC]

regarding the black space, i've looked at it on other monitors, and i think much of the intended background texture is sometimes lost, depending on the monitor. so i'll work on that a bit.

aside from that, it will also be cropped to a square, which would reduce the black space, but i'll definitely try to keep it in mind when i'm deciding on the crop.

thanks!

I readjusted my monitor and saw the rest of the detail, I take what I said back. Damn LCD... I want my CRT back.
