Description I did this about a month ago, but I wanted to have an example of color work. First time really trying to get a leather texture, I think it turned out okay.

Bleh, I just noticed I can't get rid of the grainyness in the background. I have a layer of noise built into the background layer, and I can't cover it/get rid of it. Whenever I turn it into a jpeg it does this.

The pose is just great. What have you done!? Now I have to paint girl in leather, or... definitely something with leather.

Of course the leather is great, but my favorite detail is the scabbard on the hair

Whoa. I love the design on this. And the scabbard in the hair is a pretty unique idea. That and I like the blade of the short short. Definitely 'd and 'd

Sweet! Great pose, costume and lighting effects. Face looks a tad bit elongated but beyond that I can't see anything wrong with it.

ionen In reply to eflow1 [2006-09-03 16:41:21 +0000 UTC]

Actually I think it's the entire head that's elongated.

Looks fantastic. The grainy background looks fine and adds a bit of depth in my opinion. It's probably the JPEG compression algorithm causing the blotches of grey. The angular composition conveys a great sense of motion and her elongated body fills the scene nicely. Could use a few more background elements, I think. Her right leg "feels" strange in where it hinges, but it could just be my eyes playing tricks on me. If that's her Illiac spine (hip bone), then it's fine, and it's just me.

ionen In reply to Sixcolors [2006-09-01 17:10:31 +0000 UTC]

I think the leg is off a little bit. I remember talking to my teacher about it a few months ago. (This was done in a digital paint class.)

The jpeg compression is the problem. It's just wierd that I never had any trouble with a noise layer until this.

Wonderful coloring. I'm jealous. I don't know exactly how old this is, and I have yet to look at some of your more recent stuff, but a little possitive critique okay?

Her nose looks a little strange. It seems like she has just a single piece for a nose and not the little... erm... nostril things on the sides? I might be looking at it incorrectly, but that's what I saw. Her eyes seem a little big (If you're going for a more realistic sense.) and there's not much contrast between her upper lip and pallet (You know the thing under her nose, between the in the middle of the lip.) You could probably fix that by adding some of that blue back light to the underside of her bottom lip and maybe a little to her top.

Aside from that, this piece is amazing. The way you can paint leather is amazing. The sword sheath in her hair is an absolutely wonderful idea.
Aslo, the ascending angle of her body, right calf, and her bobby pin thingy from left to right and then her arm, gun, sword, and sheath descending from left to right makes this picture very attractive. People's eyes like diagonal angles for some reason.

Nice piece! (Please don't take this too hard. It's supposed to be helpful to you. T__T*Hops off to look at you other stuff*

Sixcolors In reply to SkyStryder [2006-09-01 16:20:41 +0000 UTC]

People like diagonals because they convey a sense of motion. Vertical lines convey a sense of strength and stability while horizontal lines convey laziness or a relaxed feeling.

ionen In reply to SkyStryder [2006-08-31 04:37:27 +0000 UTC]

I agree with a bit of what you said. I created it about 2 or so months ago, and did not feel it was my best piece. I specifically do not like the nose, I have trouble painting noses for some reason. The eyes could stand to be a little smaller, but I recall trying that and not liking it. It made her head look too big or something.

I think the body turned out basically perfect for what I am capable of at this time, but I never really liked the face that much. I don't mind any criticism since you have a reason for it, but I have learned a bit since I created this.

That's cool. Yeah... I can't say much when it comes to my own CG skills, but I can help people out... sometimes.

But yeah. It's still an amazing piece. ^_^

I love the way you draw female bodies, very nice and long ^_^
Like the design lots too, I’m inspired by the way you did the leather and for some reason I am always attracted to pictures with blue lighting.
