Description
Tools: Photoshop and Trust tablet.Critiques and comments are welcomed.
Edit: Some deviants pointed out that her expression looked too calm, so I decided to change it slightly, in order to make it more appropriate for the action scene. Thank you all for the helpful feedback!

Υπέροχο. Απλά δεν φαινεται να είναι σε ένταση μοιάζει πολυ χαλαρή. Εκτος αν αυτο ηθελες για να δειξεις οτι δεν φοβαται. Επίσης μοιάζει σαν να κοιταει κατι πανω απο το τερμα αριστερο λύκο και τελος οταν φορας μπούστο το στήθος πεταει εδω μοιαζει λιγο επιπεδο.

Σε ευχαριστώ! Είχες δίκιο για την έκφραση της, φαινόταν πολύ χαλαρή. Έκανα μια μικρή διόρθωση και ελπίζω τώρα να δείχνει πιο επιθετική... Όσο για το στήθος της, για δείχνει ο σωματότυπος της πιο αθλητικός είπα να μην το τονίσω ιδιαίτερα... όχι ότι βαριόμουν να το αλλάξω...

Loving the clean and finished look, the lines are smooth and we can tell what everything it. Although her pose seems unnatural. I can tell what you are aiming for, but she looks as if every part of her body was staged, instead of letting her pose how she would institutionally pose in a situation like this.
This angle is good fro showing off her clothing design, and i like how you rounded the composition off with the wolves, but I don't get a sense of danger. Her face seems clam almost happy. I think a more dynamic composition would have been more interesting and engaging.
Other than that, i think it's a solid piece, just needs some work.

Thank you for the constructive feedback, mate. I agree with the things you pointed out. Need to work more on dynamic poses and compositions...

wow that's awesome! I like the dynamic flow of this work and the coloring is amazing!
you're the first person I meet not working with a WACOM-tablet! I had a tablet from an unknown brand before too but it kinda had its own life and will...but how are your experiences?

Thank you! As for the tablet I use, it's not bad considering how much cheaper it was than a Wacom tablet of similar characteristics. The only problem it had were the two buttons on the pen, intended for "left" and "right" clicks that stopped functioning after a month of usage. lol But apart from that it's been working fine.

no problem
I'm glad to hear that! Wacom is definitely market leader but I wished there were more really competitive brands, that the prices would decrease a bit. It seems the other brands are on the right way

I really like the composition and the colours, but the pose could be more belivable if you make her look at the wolves and hold the spear more firmly. I really like the colors lol

Good observations! Thank you for the feedback!

Beautiful and intense. I like the outfit, teh pose, and the details (the fairies, the light at the tip of her spear) but if she was to use it to fend the wolves, the way she grabs it bythe left hand is upside down, I think (try to do this with a broom and ou will get my meaning, I hope.. Sorry if my explanation doesn't seem really clear..)

Yeah, the way she's holding the spear looks kinda weird... Imagine that she's moving it from left to right in a windshield-wiper motion. That's what I was aiming for basically...

Ho, I see what you mean.
you most welcome dear!

Everything loks really smooth here, but shouldn't she be looking at the wolves and not the camera? Is this an oc?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not the artist, but I'd say she IS looking at the wolves; her eyes are aimed to our left, not straight ahead.

No, the eyes are looking into the camera.

NonieR is right; the character is looking at the wolves, but because of the small resolution of the image the direction towards which she's looking, is not easily distinguishable. I just re-uploaded the image at a slightly higher resolution. Hopefully, now people can tell where she's looking at...

maybe it's seen through one of the volve's eyes?

Interesting concept, but I doubt it.
