I few things I'm unsatisfied with, but overall I'm hapy with this.

I like the tattoo on her face mostly because it makes her more witch-like and because I know how hard it is to add a tattoo on free skin and still make it look natural!
If I have to find something "wrong" for the whole thing, I would have used the original pic colours, I find the autumn colours more suited for the concept.

Thanks for your feedback.
I had changed the background colour to make it more mystical, as well as to keep the focus on her.

Ah yes, now I see your point! Thanks to you for the explanation.

I like the way the witch looks at you. Her stare's very intense and you can almost feel yourself falling asleep. The wolf was a nice touch.

When I look at this manipulation I get the feeling that she casted a spell on me, so my eyes are closing as I lose consciousness ... still looking at her! ... Great choice of model for this purpose, because her facial expression seems to be that one of somebody who has just done something to you, and is awaiting to see the effects of what she's done! ... The wolf in distress is also a pretty good addition to the whole concept! Good job!

I like that imagery. It wasn't my intention, but that's where open interpretation comes in.
Thanks for your feedback.

Really? Its head is the most prominent part.

snowychi In reply to LifeIsZealous [2013-02-01 17:38:51 +0000 UTC]

no i mean i wouldve prefered the head looking towards me instead of up, nut i guess the way it is already done adds to the complete theme of the picture XD

LifeIsZealous In reply to snowychi [2013-02-01 22:48:15 +0000 UTC]

Ah. The idea behind that is that the wolf is sniffing around for danger. He's her protector.

Very nice job with piecing this together. It would be cool to see what this looks like if you made the vignette to an alpha. Would most likely have to format into a png. file though. All in all, well done.

LifeIsZealous In reply to ChadReaser [2013-01-30 04:28:07 +0000 UTC]

I might try that with my next manip. I don't often work with alphas, but they add more dynamic. I'm not used to them yet though.
Thank you very much for your feedback.

while i do think the filter is a bit too strong (it's just personal preference), it gives the image a nice feel and mysterious aura great job on this~

LifeIsZealous In reply to shinjistar [2013-01-30 04:29:45 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. The vignette does seem to be everyone's first thought. Besides that, what else do you think could be improved?

shinjistar In reply to LifeIsZealous [2013-01-30 05:11:01 +0000 UTC]

you're welcomeβ™₯

hmmm, other than the filter, i think maybe you could have toned the brightness down on the girl a little bit more..? i think it would make her blend into the background better (i'm not sure if that was what you were trying to achieve, though )

LifeIsZealous In reply to shinjistar [2013-01-30 08:49:24 +0000 UTC]

I see what you mean. There's an awful lot of focus on just her. My intention was to have her and the wolf pop out, the background was just to provide a setting.
Thanks for your feedback.

shinjistar In reply to LifeIsZealous [2013-01-31 03:58:03 +0000 UTC]

well, not that the focus on her is a bad thing, it's just if you were going for an effect that made both her and the wolf stand out, i'd be better to dim her colours down a bit

& you're very welcome

LifeIsZealous In reply to shinjistar [2013-01-31 04:53:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, that's my point. I wanted focus on both, but I'll be sure to keep it in mind for future manips.

MrsKyoya In reply to LifeIsZealous [2013-01-30 06:00:32 +0000 UTC]

I love the color of the forest and the contrast between the girl and the background.I suppose the filter could be lighter, but still looks beautiful.

Thepandagamer [2013-01-30 00:41:37 +0000 UTC]

At first, I found the filter a bit over powering, but then, as I saw the picture more, it definately added to the whole fantasy-mystery feel!

LifeIsZealous In reply to Thepandagamer [2013-01-30 00:46:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the black around the edges is a bit intense at first.
What do you think is the biggest strength and weakness about it?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Thepandagamer In reply to LifeIsZealous [2013-01-30 22:21:00 +0000 UTC]

Weakness: The black is a bitt too much (for me)
Strength: The way the peice looks like its an actual photo and put together nicely

I like it.. green makes it all pop.. but can't see much due to the black frame you are using

That's fair enough. I wanted to being more focus to her and the wolf.
