Description Well I didn't intend for the face to be realistic. But I'm not complaining cos the way I went about it made it really quick to do. I'm not sure about the background. Need a bit of practise with that. Or maybe the composition made it hard, because it puts more focus on it. Who knows. Anyway it's of ~skip821 again. I may do something else with the head. Might submit a vertical piece instead. Yeah I'll do that tomorrow. Screw wallpapers

Forgot to say. In the orig image Ellen had a beanie on, but I made it hair cos it was easier. Does the forehead and the proportions look right?

Edit: Changed dimensions as I said I would and the mountains are now transparent with an outline. Changed colours, added title. Changed lips, added "breath"

Comments and favorites appreciated!

I hope you like it!

i loves the background man!!!! maybe u dont like it coz u can see the shapes and how it was made. I think it rocks! but i think it would look better as a panorama, with the face on the left. "That'd be sweet" But a great piece ma man!

expansiondesign In reply to AdRoiT-Designs [2006-02-24 01:08:14 +0000 UTC]

yah it didnt work, cos she was too far pushed on the left... made for a really unbalanced piece.. and put focus on mountains...

I quite like this, the image is nice and fresh. Only thing I would fix is the skin tones, they seem alitle too pink a quick tweak of the colour balance should fix that. Maybe some hairs could go over her goggles aswell.

Although you may not have intended for the face to be realistic, it sure appears to be so. The whole scene is quite vivid, and is set off by the reflective, amber colored goggles. I love how it encompasses both cold and dark feelings, cold from the sky and snow, warm from the face of your human subject.
