Well, I finally, finally finished it! My take on an ice queen sort of concept. I don't want to explain it too much.

Really nice, and it really looks like she's in a snowstorm. But would you mind telling me how did you got everything so smooth and well blended?

Uhm...soft round brushes and the smudge tool. I think. It was a while ago.

She has lovely eyes,first of all. But what I really like is the half-reptilian hand. I'm not sure if it's acting on it's own scratching her like that, or why she is doing that to herself. The blood stands out so clearly on the pale skin and against the snow.

That's quite the compliment! It did take me the better part of a year of picking at it to get the skin tone the way I wanted.

I keep meaning to comment on this... Most lovely... I love the background and how nicely you rendered her skin. I feel like her finger with the bloodsmear looks more like she's holding a stick or something. Lovely hair as well.

It still leaves me with so many unanswered questions. My heart goes out to her even while my shields are on maximum.

That's what it means to be pitied, isn't it?

dlcusa In reply to slyeagle [2010-06-23 17:40:53 +0000 UTC]

Pity includes hopelessness for the subject's future, to me anyway. I think you mean compassion. She doesn't seem to be in some Gestalt from which there is no effective escape; i.e., there's nothing I can do to help her.

Yeah, filling in small detail areas is easy. It's filling up the large sections that takes me forever. >_<
