Description
My interpretation of the Mythological god Hermaphroditus...so if you can't tell what it is .... you're in good shape
Many many many many ungodly hours in Photoshop 7... from scratch. No reference.
My first real attempt at an illustration in a painting style

Wow. This is a great piece. Strangely enough, I was drawn away from the character portrayed to the background. That means you did an especially good job with the setting. :up:

Wow. I really really like this. A lot. I think it's the whites/creams contrasting so starkly with the warm skin and that beautiful flaming hair.

Sugoii! Great job Scubbs! This is increadably impressive! I'm so proud of you! Wow, all without reference and all in photoshop! The hair is absolutely STUNNING, no joke. It looks like real hair, or at least FF goodness style hair, or a little better! The shading on the face is great, The lips too, and the eyes! Wow, you just did such an awesome job! I love the way you did the hair for the character, it works out really good with the general concept. Also, the clothes! omg the folds are SO GOOD, and the buckle and just wow o__O the footsteps in the snow, and the posts, and the mountains in the background. What a great job! sugoiiiiiiiii *oogles* You get better all the time, your style is really developing nicely!

That is absolutely gorgeous. The contrast between the pale whites and greys of a majority of the image to his orange hair makes me gawk. The shading and blending is amazing. I gotta fav this one.

Can't say it's a god though.. you have to just say Hermaphroditus. Very wonderful.. i can not tell which one it is, but.. The hair should MABBE be a bit shaggier.. the hair seems more silken and feminine.. eyes are wonderful though.. and I love the contrasting of the colors.. orange on white.

hehe i dunno I assumed since he /it was the son fo Aphrodite and Hermes, who were major gods

Hmm.. true.. it would make it a bit more feminine.. I just saying in case people thought it WAS female.. ah well.. it's awesome. i shouldn't be critiquing when you are surperious..
