Description Finally finished This is Alex, 's character!
This piece is for his 1M hit contest. I know the pose isn't the most original ever, but hey, if you'd be wearing that helmet all the time, you would have to untangle your hair once in a while too
Hope you guys liek this, I had so much fun doing it ... I think I spend more time on this piece than on any other in my gallery! I think it shows too! well give me your opinion? uh .. I still have time to change some stuff before the end of the contest haha

the original is 2600px x 3500 approximately
Spent about 15 hours or so .. I didn't count, probably more
scketched on paper with black gel pen, scanned and then Photoshop CS2and mouse

i really like the colouring in this actually, youve got more shadow and shadow-highlight sensitivity, her hair looks gorgeous and i love the gleam on her helmet, the thin highlight of yellow around the figure also helps to make her stand out more which is really effective. If anything you could add a bit more texture to distinguish between the skin and her suit but apart from that it looks fine!

Hey!! I'm glad to hear from you Hope you had a good summer!! Thank you so much! You can't possibly imagine how hard I tried to put some shadow on her skin .. I imagined myself reading what you would say after I was done " you could put more highlights on the skin.." .. as always .. so this time I did put some rea; effort :d You encouraged me haha!! You're absolutely right for the skin/suit painting method .. I have to devellop more style otherwise everything looks flat .. like plastic figures :d but Hey .. I guess I already made improvement if I look back a year .. yay for the future haha!

Belle pièce, voila ce que je pourrais te conseiller pour l'améliorer :

-développer + tes connaissances anatomiques. Bien qu'il s'agisse d'un fanart manga, une connaissance solide du corps humain t'aideras à coup sûr à faire des pièces encore plus percutantes. Concernant ton dessin plus précisement : les bras sont trop courts, les doigts manquent de définition, les tendons du cou sont vagues, les yeux trop penchés vers l'avant tel ceux d'un elfe et finalement les hanches sont trop raides.

-Utiliser la coloration à ton avantage. Je suis certain qu'avec un ombrage sculpturel (ombrage artificiel, les creux sont foncés et les rebonds clairs), tu pourrais accentuer les jolies courbes de cette dame. Cela aiderait à séarer les 2 seins, a démontrer la courbure et le volume des cuisses, etc.

-La texture : tout est colorié de la même manière ! Les cheveux ont l'air en plastique. N'aies pas peur d'utiliser des brush strokes plus confiants, plus en longueur. La chevelure doit être tout en courbe.

Ça peut sembler beaucoup, mais c'est rien d'insurmontable, juste de la pratique et de l'observation. Tu as des compétences et du talent c'est certain, continues comme ça et tes oeuvres vont vraiment torcher!

Pleins de critiques constructives.. et en françcais!?? woh pour les cheveux .. ma souris me rend pas asser confiante avec les belles courbes, je magasine les tablettes .. le jour ou j'aurai de l'argent mais j'essaierai! J'adore le fait que tu ai pris le temps de bien analyser! C'est très positif de ta part et merci beaucoup! pour els ombrages, je sais pas si tu as ragerder ma gallery, mais je me suis essayé plus fort pour els ombres... j'avoue que je dois oser plus ... mais c'est difficile parce que trop d'ombres peuvent gacher un dessin! Je prendrai tes notes en compte lors de mon prochain dessin .. j'ai justement un croquis sur ma table qui n'attend que d'être développé! :d reviens me critiquer quand tu veux Merci encore

Very cute concept - I'd say it's original in the fact I don't usually see characters doing that I really like how you've done the colouring on her body- very detailed. Good luck with the contest!
