Description Hey everyone! This looks oddly familiar doesn't it? XD
That's because this is the picture I've been using for my avatar for months now. Now you get to see the actual picture!

For those who don't know, this is my original character Rosie in her very-creepy-glory.
That flower in her hand is supposed to look like it's in the process of wilting by the by. XD

This picture is named after Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Rappaccini's Daughter". If you don't know about the story, go read it (the full text is online). It's a pretty good/long read. :3

Uhhh, blegh, I don't have much to say.

This is very nice, I like how clean you rendered the picture, I like how the red/pink hair contrasts with the green background, very nice touch to the picture and how they make each other stand out.

I love the detail and color in this. Truly beautiful. However, I do wish Rosie's destructive nature were more thoroughly emphasized. It's hard to tell...the flower doesn't stand out much. but I still enjoy it very much

FireflyRaye In reply to autumncoloredmelodie [2009-06-16 21:04:41 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, that flower gave me a LOT of trouble. Truthfully, that was the best I could get it. D:
But thanks a bunch!

May-be-Lee [2009-05-11 20:42:25 +0000 UTC]

I love this. She looks so creepy and scary and cute. XD I really adore her hair and dress design. The dress design seems to contrast with and compliment her personality at the same time.
The shading and lighting looks really, really good too, especially how you did the folds on her skirt.

Also, love the little detail of the wilting flower. It adds to Rosie's over-all creepiness. XD

You've done an excellent job of conveying the creepiness with your palette and use of shadows. Good work!

Where have I seen that face before??
Hehe. I love the light glow coming from behind her. The lighting and shading looks very nice :> I'm not so sure about the green in the corners, it distracts me from the middle of the picture

FireflyRaye In reply to evil-goma [2009-05-10 22:55:01 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... I kinda see what you mean. Well, I didn't want to just leave the BG blank. Do you have a suggestion for what may look better?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

evil-goma In reply to FireflyRaye [2009-05-10 22:59:57 +0000 UTC]

Maybe a softer shade of green? Or you could extend it so it encircles her more. It's mainly that it's such a bright colour and it's only in the corners that becomes distracting
