NOTE: Best appreciated in FULL VIEW.

This image forced me to learn three things; how to render metal, how to create a perspective speedline, and how to better render this type of hair.

Sexy, if you don't mind me saying so.
The tones are very scrumptious.. the golden and silver colouring look very nice and shiny..
Great pose, good angle, overall: awesome.

Wonderfull, i think you succeeded with every objective you had.
The movement towords the viewer is absolutely fabulous

(just one question, what do you mean by rendering?)

slshimerdla [2004-07-08 05:15:48 +0000 UTC]

Wow wow and wow. This is just great! The movement, skin tones, clothing, musculature, metal... really well done. The ONLY thing that looks a bit odd to me is the facial shape. Perhaps it's just those glasses making it look odd, though. Anyway, really excellent work.

While the linework can stand on its own, the finished image is amazing. AMAZING. I love the skin tones and how your hit the shadows just right; excellent. Love the glare in the glasses. The metal loks awesome also.

Your pencil and colouring skills are simply outstanding, I'm so impressed with your work I could have it all under favourites forever but I'm already considered as a Fav Whore

M-Thomson [2004-07-07 15:57:25 +0000 UTC]

Nice, but... I dunno. It's very Lara Croft-like though I think that's down to your drawing style .

Dualmask In reply to M-Thomson [2004-07-07 19:33:07 +0000 UTC]

What makes her Lara-like? The glasses? She certainly doesn't carry guns, has no english accent, doesn't raid tombs, or is white for that matter... Normally I'd have stayed silent but I'm the character designer so your comment piqued my interest.

Oh believe me I meant no offense, but having read one of the comics (the art was by Billy Tan if you're interested), I just noticed some similarites between *daggerpoint 's style and his, but also, if I may, the hair and the figure sorta did it too. It just seemed a little familiar, that's all. Great design though!

M-Thomson In reply to Dualmask [2004-07-07 19:49:33 +0000 UTC]

Okay. I'm glad I managed to sort that out because I fear my comment may have been misinterpreted. Ah well, I shall check your gallery out too .

Dualmask In reply to M-Thomson [2004-07-07 19:54:55 +0000 UTC]

If you're interested, this [link] is the piece I showed to *daggerpoint for reference for the character. It's in my old gallery, ~fallenangel77 . I haven't uploaded any images of Beta in my current gallery... but feel free to explore both regardless . I shall be doing the same to your gallery. Thanks for the interest!

M-Thomson In reply to Dualmask [2004-07-07 20:11:28 +0000 UTC]

That's some pretty slick stuff in there! I'd DevWatch the gallery if it were more active, but instead I'll watch your current work. Thanks very much for stopping by my gallery, and see ya around!

(I think we'd best move on from * daggerpoint 's piece )

If you think that this character is beneath my skills, you're wrong. No image is as long as you put your heart and soul to it.

To each his own.

M-Thomson In reply to DaggerPoint [2004-07-07 19:44:22 +0000 UTC]

Oh, Lordy no. There has been somewhat of a misunderstanding here. I wasn't saying that this is a copy or anything, no. I just happened to notice some similarities in style and design with some of the other comics works I've seen.

Dualmask [2004-07-07 14:39:50 +0000 UTC]

This was just what I needed after feeling particularly down...you did some incredible work. Everything from the gold to the skin looks great. I especially like the outfit; it looks kind of like the material the characters wore in the X-Men movies. I had hoped it would be an enjoyable challenge...and your work is teaching me a thing or two about rendering different materials as well.

I'll get it to you as soon as I can. Paypal and I ran into a snag, it's going to take a bit longer than planned.

DaggerPoint In reply to Dualmask [2004-07-07 16:15:36 +0000 UTC]

Glad you liked it. I intentionally didn't sway very far from the original design of your character. The jacket was actually an inspiration taken from Janet Jackson in her All For You video.

Thanks, though I think I can better the technique on rendering the hair, but I don't have enough time to experiment. I have so much more to do and little time to do it.
