Description
Now that the second season of Downton Abbey is finally airing in the US, my obsession has been rekindled and the fanart will be flowing (barring any interruptions from school...)Sybil is still one of my favorite characters--although I'm warming up to her sisters.
Trying out a new style, let me know what you think!

Thanks so much for your critique! This is one of my earlier paintings, so I definitely see all the places now that could use attention (and her lips are right at the top of the list).

Wow. The first thought that hits me when I look at this piece is "What a beautiful lady." Only the afterthoughts bring questions like "How did they do it?"and "How long did it take?" Although this looks like a painting, when I look at the bottom left corner, I can see circles which look rather like brushes on Photoshop. If it's true, this piece must have been extremely tiring, which I admire very much. You should be very proud of this, and you could even sell it. I know I would buy it if it were for sale! Amazing job.

Thank you so much! Your critique completely made my day
If only I had the gift of traditional media--for now, I'll stick to the Photoshop brushes

I know! I guess the two actors wanted to be able to move onto different projects, but holy cow they could've done that a bit more gently!
Poor Tom. Poor Mary. Poor US!

I know. It's sad 
But I think I felt worse for poor Daisy, what a hard place to be in!!

>w< I know. But she did the right thing, bless her heart. BUT WILLIAAAAAAAM DDDDx
._. Also...Can I really be the only person who can't stand Mary?

Poor WILLIAM. Indeedy.
Probably, I hated her in the first series, but now I really like her.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
-_- I admit, I like her more than I liked her first series, too (mostly because they've given her greater depth via Matthew. It proves she does, in fact, have a heart. I was concerned there for a while she was an automaton.). But she's such a....ahem....you know.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. I know. But maybe Matthew's love will change her and make her the sweetest person ever!
Unlikely, but we can dream
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, yeah. I could not believe how crazy witchy she was to Edyth (ooooh, and when she tried to get on Sybil's case about Branson? I was like "Are you seriously gonna judge her right now?!").
Not like Edyth was an angel, but...can you blame her, really? -_-;; Living with Mary could do that to anyone. I get the greatest sense of satisfaction when good things happen to Edyth. xD;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know! I feel like, at least in the first series, Mary made Edith such a bad person--maybe now she can be redeemed.
I'm interested to see if Edith ends up with anybody, because her parents don't seem to have any hope for her. (As if she was ugly or something, which is clearly NOT true.)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
T-T I know!! I was looking at fan approval ratings, and it really annoyed me to see that Mary's rating was considerably higher than Edyth's. I was like ".....Whut?!?!?!"
owo I keep thinking she's going to fall for one of the young men she's caring for. But they seem to not like that road, so we'll see >w< I hope she ends up happy, poor girl.

I KNOW. Poor sweet Lavinia
But yay for Matthew and Mary!

-w-; But I don't like Mary..... Argh. And poor Edith is still the spinster.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You must learn to love Mary, she is clearly the most important
Edith won't be alone forever!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
xD I refuse. I'm actually rather infamous for loving side characters most (And then everyone I love dies....yeah. ._.).
TwT I hope not...

Hahaha, well you stay strong for Edith! She needs it

Again, this is beautiful. C: The soft color palette really fits Sybil's look, although the deeper color of her lips and hat and hair work well to balance it out. A great pic.

This is beautiful! I love it
I think the shading is wonderful in the way that is adds so much depth and..environment to the photo, if that makes sense. The shading makes the jacket seem very realistic, as well as the hat.
I like the colors you've chosen, they all work together very well, especially the sky blue and the darker blue of the hat. I like how the simple background really makes the subject 'pop' as well.
The left shoulder seems a little...small to me, compared to the right shoulder. It seems to be more rounded than the right one..
I don't really have any suggestions for you other than that, excellent work!

Thank you so much! Your lovely comments are the perfect start to a Monday
I see what you mean about the shoulder--I'll be sure to go back and fix that at some point.
Thanks again!!

This is beautiful, I love the colours and it has such a beautiful softness that is just soooo Sybil
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I attribute the softness to the amazing cinematography of the show
Thank you for your comment!
