Description just something that stuck in my head the other night.
i think i'm getting the hang of doing perspective shots. this one was a toss up: either at a cafe or at the beach. and i figured the beach has been done to death. >_<

Thoughts?

Would you mind if I colored this for practice?

sorry, but yes i would mind. i'd prefer it if people didn't color my original work unless it states otherwise in the comments.
thanks.

This is really lovely, but there's something just too masculine about her face. Also, if you push breasts together like that, the shirt actually dips down and out from the chest, it doesn't get stuck in the cleavage.

She's really cute, almost looks desperate, or worried.. a second look makes her look like she's going 'what the hell is this guy saying.' I like it :]

Artemsis [2008-05-24 07:17:27 +0000 UTC]

I like this. She looks very sweet, but nerveous or maybe upset about something. I'd like to have a night out with a girl like her, even if it was just for one night of us talking at the cafe.

Very nice job!

Benjamin-k-waa In reply to Artemsis [2012-08-12 13:21:09 +0000 UTC]

its the dot between her eyebrows - if you cover that up, she doesn't look upset anymore. weird?!

Its an awesome picture though, she's delightful!!

yeah it is, but it's hard to find some decent ones out there... well... decent ones with good stories ^_^;; Hell, if you were to do one if flash (if you know it) that would be good for your portfolio.
