Description A picture of Snow White. This was so much fun to do! The hair took a lot of time, but I am pretty pleased with it. The apple was a pain in the arse! I'm not even sure it looks like an apple more like a red ball I'm afraid...I like her dress

Lol she has my hair (ish) xD
I like the apple, the way you've emphasised it. Even if it did just look like a red ball you'd still tell it was an apple just from connotations of the title.
I also really like her eyes. They're very alive

Thanks for informing me of that....

Yes I used her as a ref. but if you have seen the original ad it is completely different. I changed her face, gave her a dress, and the apple red/ on black concept is my own.

And the time taken on her hair definitely paid off. It looks very sleek and shiny - wonderful shading work there. And the apple...yahh...looks like an apple to me I love how it's the only coloured thing in the whole picture - really striking. Her eyes are beautiful too. There's so much life to them and the whole piece has the wavering quality of the inevitable...just she's about to bite into the apple. Or perhaps she has already done so and is just beginning to realise her mistake.

Love

I'd love to know if you had a reference for this piece. The model looks very familiar to me...almost like my favorite singer, Sarah Brightman! Regardless, I love what you've done here. The red apple is so bold and really stands out from this piece. Snow White is truly the fairest of them all, her hair so soft, her eyes full of innocence...I really, truly love what you've done!

You should enter this into the Grimm Fairytale contest that =gorjuss is putting on! You've definately got a winner in this one!

lol the eyes are mesmerizing!!! great! what media did you use for the hair (looks too intense to be simply pencil) and for the apple (which btw is pretty neat)?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

dustfae In reply to thinuviel [2006-01-09 23:38:32 +0000 UTC]

I used pencil for the hair! Mainly 6b For the apple I used red,brown, and white colored pencil. Thank you so much
