You are gorgeous.
And I don't know how you had the patience for all that stippling, that has got to be the most time consuming technique ever!

Aww... you always flatter me. Glad you like it.

Oh yeah and by the way, I'm serious about wanting to become a zombie. What do I need to do?

Joey-Zero In reply to Laartista [2008-10-09 15:00:50 +0000 UTC]

Do you have any cool pics of yourself that I can use for reference? I'm starting to get pretty comfortable with full on shots, as opposed to just portraits (Either's fine though). Just take a look at the past few zombie pieces to see what I really dig working on, you know?

Laartista In reply to Joey-Zero [2008-10-16 20:55:49 +0000 UTC]

I'm going to have to take a REALLY cool photo. Most likely it'll be a portrait though. I looked at the photos that you've used for your other pieces and those girls rock at taking photos. Me? Not so much. So I hope I can give you something good to work with.

After looking at your work and some people from my watchlist, I'm wondering why more female artists are more gooder than the male artists for the most part. Your work is top-notch. Seem like the shading is pretty good.
