I didn't see this one yet. I really like this very much. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the lighting. The colors you used are really great and effective.

Yes, that's an incorrect element, but the rest looks really nice.

I just checked out your intresting gallery. Didn't intend to comment on the first image I saw but this one called out. I'm interested in your references. Do you sketch from life, take reference pics or use found images? ~lyeshea made a good point which led me to think you work intuitivly. I think you might look at the figers right leg. The knee shadow is distracting and not beleivable. I think it would be a shame to spoil a beautiful image with a less than beliveable right leg I look forward to seeing this series develop. Love the colour/tones.

Thank you very much.
Yea i know what you mean, for this pose i had to use a reference as i wasnt farmiliar with drawing this type of pose. The image i used was quite small so its not really a surprise that certain areas are a little off. It was an image i found of Charlize Theron from a movie magazine, i noticed her pose was exactly what i was looking for so i used it as a reference, otherwise this image would be worse if i did it from memory. You'll notice that most my latest work doesnt have people apart from two pieces. This is beacuse im working on developing my skills in that area. This is one image that i will be re-vamping later on. I still like this image but i am a little disappointed as the original seems much better. The hair and the leg for sure are still a little off in the original but its slightly more convincing.
Thank you very much once again for your commenting, youve helped a great deal, i appreciate these comments more as i usually get simple ones like 'cool' or 'amazing'. Its good to see people actually look at my work rather than just glance.

Ruecroft [2006-06-17 01:15:44 +0000 UTC]

Wow. I love your subtle and symbolic use of color. This one is my favorite because it encorporates your skills of creating enviroments buildings and people. Only thing I can critisize about it is that it looks like her foot has been chopped off. What's that about?

devouredex In reply to Ruecroft [2006-06-17 01:23:47 +0000 UTC]

the far foot is under her dress so its slightly un-seeable.

Your art is very unique, and this was the first image to catch my eye, mainly because of the gorgeous choice of colors. Excellent proportions, features, and pose.

This is definately one of my favorites of yours. The colors look great--very vibrant and warm agains the stone-like hue of her skin and the castle. The girl is simply beautiful. This is easily something I could see appearing next to a fairy tale or a dark fantasy piece. Wonderful work.

DOES THE SUN SHINE IN HELL? NOW I WONDER.

WISH U WOULDVE ADDED SOM WINGS BUT THIS IS GOOD AS IS. COLORS JUST SEEM A TAD MISMATCHED. SOME JUST FEEL UNNECESSARY.

GOOD POSE AND EXCELLENT CONCEPT.
