Description I'm sure nobody cares, but here's my current work in progress. It's pure practice again, am mainly trying to get the colors as right as my current powers of observation allow. It's supposed to be a nymph/wood spirit/whatever.

I actually wanted this to be a very quick sketch, but I like how it's turning out so I'm planning to put some more work into it.

Final edit: This is finished as far as I'm concerned. It's definitely not perfect, but it turned out okay considering it was only a practice piece. Anyway, I've learned a lot from diddling with it and I feel I should move on to practice other things as well. Thanks for the feedback everyone!

I like this one and the updated one, but I like the cleaner look at the bottom and the eye color here better. I can't decide which hair I like better, they both work in different ways.

valenciaCheng [2009-03-27 05:55:26 +0000 UTC]

she is so graceful and i really feel the refreshing character that charges your entire picture with so much life! honestly, i like this version of "the face of spring" better than the one you got a DD on.... O___O i think this is because you allowed this lovely maiden's hair to be more free in the wind. also, i like the color choice of her hair. the super shine of her lips is pretty neat too, and in this version, i like the SLIGHTLY darker shading underneath her eyes XDDD
don't get me wrong - i still like the other one too

This version looks softer, more tender... But the repainting of it looks more vibrant and alive. It's the eyes. I love both, though. ^^

this is pretty good, except that the girl itself looks like winter not spring....maybe b/c of the hair color

You're so modest. This is supremely beautiful, perfectly capturing the essence of spring just like you'd hoped. It reminds me of something from Fantasia.
