woaah it's not only dark palette, but a dark theme!
to be honest, I quite like it this way. Especially if you've lost motivation, it's beautiful as is, I say!

Gotta do more of them, haha! Thank you very much I wouldn't call it finished as it is since it has lots of problems I'd probably redraw it completely if I ever return to it, heh..

I love the colors and the shapes their bodies make, but what's happening at the bottom is kind of lost (the way her dress is splayed out and how she's sitting) and it's hard to tell what's happening with that area. If you expanded the bottom of the canvas a bit and refined the folds of her dress I think it would clarify that area a lot more as well as create some really beautiful detail with the folds, and also give more hint to an environment if you showed more of the floor. I also think it would add a lot to the atmosphere and context if you had some miscellaneous clutter like buckets, bricks, tools, bloody rags, etc. in the background, because right now it's hard to tell where they are. I really love the colors you chose for this though, and your brushwork is gorgeous as always c8 If you ever get the motivation to go back to it, I'd love to see how it turns out 8]

znodden In reply to SilverSkittle [2012-07-28 03:25:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know what you mean! I was lazy and didn't flesh out the lower part of the drawing properly - I'll try to rework the painting a bit, 'cause I can't seem to fix it as it is. It wasn't meant to be a dress btw, but I'll probably make it a dress now that you said it
Will work on the environment more too if I get back to this - thanks a lot for your comment, really appreciated!

SilverSkittle In reply to znodden [2012-07-28 09:31:56 +0000 UTC]

OPP Well, it'll make for a nice dress then, haha 8) Glad I could help!

I'm such a fan of your work, really love the dark, gritty brown tones. The blood looks really good too, great hue.
I'd love to see a recorded timelapse of how you work..

znodden In reply to ailaik [2012-07-28 03:23:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot man! I'm thinking of reworking the ligthning a bit since I grew tired of this, but I'll try to keep the original colours somehow
I've tried searching up programs and stuff for recording, I'm having a hard time finding out what I should use though.. Do you have any suggestions? Wouldn't mind recording when I paint, could be fun seeing the timelapse myself!

I always find Camtasia very handy, but it's not free so I googled a bit and found this: [link] sounds like it's a good product. But I can't say I've tried it myself yet. If you're a Mac user however, there aren't many free apps that do the trick, you might have to be a bit of a pirate for that..

znodden In reply to ailaik [2012-07-28 11:36:36 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much, will check out that program for sure Ah I heard about camtasia too, seemed good so it's kinda sad there's only trials avilable

Downloaded Camstudio nao, I can't get it to work though, crashes all the time

ailaik In reply to znodden [2012-08-01 06:47:57 +0000 UTC]

weird, seems to work pretty good for me, might actually switch from Camtasia to this.. haven't tried audio yet though
but, Camtasia has its own video-editing software, which makes recording and speeding up timelapses a breeze

znodden In reply to ailaik [2012-08-01 06:50:31 +0000 UTC]

First it crashed, and when I tried recording a second time it wouldn't let me save the file D: Dunno what's wrong, maybe I did something wrong... Will try it out again next time I paint :< Camtasia sounds pretty good haha, too bad I'm too chicken to go pirate :'<

stunning, hope you finish this!
I was actually hoping you could create more contrast and even add some more blood

znodden In reply to ryulota [2012-07-28 03:18:36 +0000 UTC]

I'll try! Will probably try to rework the lightning a bit and all. Will certainly think about adding more blood and contrast, thanks

It's supposed to be some kind of murderer who is slicing up the girls face. I guess I was kinda in an interesting mood when I started painting this. :C
