Description I'm rather proud of this one. I seem to be improving in the CG field. This drawing was actually months old, I had always planned to CG it and I would like to put it up as a print also. This will be at Ayacon 2005 along with the other EGL one I have there. (EGL: Moonlight baby). Ant maybe a few more like a guy hopefully, I seem to draw women more now. Anyway this girl is still nameless. I have had a few suggestions which are all really fitting to her but I can't decide. I love this character so much, she has to have the perfect name or it wont feel right. There isn't really a background so much as a sort of border. It's simple but I think it fits, it grabs my eye, I love borders like that. creeping inwards. It fits her alot. The teddy doesn't have a name either I was thinking "Sir Tiddlywinks" or something equally as vomit enducing. Haha.

Materials used: A4 paper, HB pencil. Sakura pigma inking pens, scanner, photoshop CS2 and my happy cheap packard bell tablet.

Time taken: averaging 10 hours if I sat there and did it straight, I did it over about 2 weeks.

thanks

Thanks very much. Lots of people have said that the legs are the best aspect of this peice. They never know why and nor do I. But for some reason they seem to bring it together well.

Thanx! ^^ I don't think that the head looks that small, I think that it's the effect that the bulged (creo) dressed and the position that it's designed, that just depends on the viewer :3

Hey long time no see, good to see you're still alive^^

I agree with zafiro-mizuo, it's kind of lacking depth, the contrast between the shadow and the "original" colours aren't easy to notice.
The details on her ornament is very nicely done, but her head seems too small for her body

*hug* get on yahoo sometime, I feel like talking with you!

I think that the dress could have more tones to give him mas depth, and more shade to the legs I joust under the dress, where I believe that it does not give him the light completely.
For the rest be great! Very good balance of colors and the adornment in the head is amazing!
Sorry for my english I am not very good at it

Thank you very much. Brilliant constructive critisism. I agree the depth could be more. I'm sure I'll work on it again at a later date though I always do. Thanks the hair ornament is actually a design for one I will be making myself, with a wig I'[m styling.

Thank you so much.

wowm the effort put into this was well worth it. i think the shoulders looks abit weird (shoulder pads?). if they are shoulder pads, they're a bit to sharp on the ends. otherwise fantastic ^_^

Emphiria In reply to DeathInTheReaper [2005-07-05 15:20:28 +0000 UTC]

Thanks ^_^ the shoulders of the dress are actually puffy shoulders, puffy dress shoulder thingies.
Yes XD
