Interesting Pic. But the arms are a bit too short, I think. I like her Feet and her Wings.^^

This is wicked cool. I think the sketchiness of it all only lends to the viney-cobwebby-foresty look.

Curve of the hips=
Eyes are maybe a little bit wonky!

All in all though, I'm going to sit on this here couch and watch what you put it!
I'm a frequent visitor of your Lime Log and I reckon you should put some more of your coloured images in here. (like that gorgeous one with the green hair who's name I can't remember... Wearing a grey suit and taking a stride?).

I'm really attracted to that perspective on her leg thats behind the other... as weird as that sounds.

I really like the character design on this along with the sketchyness of it and the colour palette you chose for this piece.

A very creative result and attractive character.

wow thats a beautiful image! but i fell you should tone down the green a bit in the background it interfears w/ the main focus of the image.

SleepyNinja [2004-04-17 01:26:09 +0000 UTC]

Sketchy as it may be, it still has a lot of detail. The purplish brown is working great for the shadows too.

I really like the "sketchiness", I think it really suits the character and colour palette used...

It's interesting, but she looks as if she is wearing a "ghillie suit" (special camoumflage suit for snipers to make them blend with their sourroundings) and that would explain why dryads are so hard to find...

Love the design, and the quality of the sketchyness is ace. Just something nice about that rough look, I've always been found of it.

...wow, that's gorgeous... the angle of the legs as she's walking is just.. so awesome and well-done. in fact, all of the anatomy aspects are just amazing. i'm in awe... i love the color scheme as well, it gives off a sort of 'old forest' vibe.. er.. yeah. :0

Well, it's pretty sketchy/sloppy Sometimes things like look rough and painterly seem to have taken a lot of time to do, but really they didn't. Not that one anyway. Using a pastel-y brush helped a lot.

Beautiful! It has the texture, the mood... it looks right! Nature personified. Well done.
May I ask about your technique ...?
Q: Was this scanned art, or was the linework created in Photoshop?
Q: Most importantly: How many layers?!

genn In reply to YelZamor [2004-04-06 22:47:34 +0000 UTC]

Scanned. Can't draw nicely on the computer to save my life

I don't really know how many layers I used.. usually it'd be one for the background, one for the border, one for the character, one for the backlighting (which could be on the character itself but I like to have a reserve), one for the lines layer and a few for effects and adjustments.
Something like that :]

YelZamor In reply to genn [2004-04-06 23:19:03 +0000 UTC]

Cool, I usually confuse myself with a layer for each darker shade, for each different element...sheesh
Well done
