Description I love that song! Which is why I chose it for the title of this manip, as I have completely run out of ideas! Yeh, if you've ever read any of my comments, you might be able to tell I'm not too great with words, which is funny, since I'm always trying to write .

Anyways, I did this one tonight, and I'm really quite happy with how it turned out. I got to colorize it! I haven't done any colorizing in a long time. This was fun. If you're still reading this I have to congratulate you. Not many people have that kind of patience and/or interest in nothingness hehe.

Important stuff (Stock Used):
yep, again. If you haven't already seen her gallery, you must do it now! Awesome stock, and a cool main account too.
The rest of the stuff is my own

I love the original of this (plans to do SOMETHING with it...) Her skin tones and hair tones look almost green... but I think you did a good job in coloizing (whatnot) it! The added hair parts look strained in full-view, but in the small version they look absolutely perfect to me! Great job

I used this pic too for something more... black and white lol !

It's great to colorize how do you do it ? with Photoshop ?

You have a little bit of skin in her eye ! if you could correct it Anyway well done !

LornaDoone In reply to Twiggy-le-dechu [2004-07-16 05:02:50 +0000 UTC]

yep, i colorize with photoshop. it involves layers, and masks.. um it's sorta complicated. I learned how to do it from worth1000.com.

hehe yeh, I guess I tried to put some color in her eye there.. but it ended up looking a bit weird eh?

LornaDoone In reply to Twiggy-le-dechu [2004-07-19 08:06:56 +0000 UTC]

Maybe a half hour I guess. I learned it from this tutorial: [link]

Sorry I'm too lazy to write up the code for link

This is strange; the original picture on the stock is in black&white.. Did you add colors yourself or..?

In any way she blends in perfectly with the background, the couple of strings of hair look good though they are a tiny bit too transparant.. but apart from that it's a pretty good, moody picture, so a job well done!

LornaDoone In reply to Deemer [2004-07-09 19:19:31 +0000 UTC]

yep, I colorized it, it was actually pretty easy with this one. Usually it takes a while to get the colors to look realistic.. but I'm generally happy with how this turned out.

Thanks for pointing out the transparency thing about the hair. I hadn't noticed it before, and I think I'll work on making it look better. Thanks for commenting!

Wow! ^_^ This is one of those pieces that looks like it has a story to tell, that keeps you looking at it for more than a few seconds, and in my opinion those are the best kind! I also must comment on the lovely flowing hair...so beautiful!

what i really like about this piece is how the ring is the focal point. your addition of hair isnt noticeable til you full view and really take a look, so i think you've got that going for you. looks great. keep it up!
