Description
Ugh... this looks so much better in real life.I wanted to add more details (it's supposed to be baroque), but oh surprise I screwed up.
I'm sad.
I know it looks blurry, I'll try to fix that someday soon. Sorry.
+ colored pencils, ink+
**Edit - Fixed the blurriness & brightened it up with the tools in the scanning program. The colors are now closer to what they look like in real life. I like it better this way.

Lovely style, she looks so delicate and pretty! The background works well with it too I like your colour choices (I have a soft spot for green and blue!).

Maybe it's supposed to be baroque, but I think the contrast between the complexity of her hair and the plants and the simpleness of parts of her dress and the sky look pretty good. I also like the color blend in her dress. The plants kinda need more contrast, they're a bit hard to see, at least in this scan.

I really love this! I know what you mean about pictures looking better in real life- that always happens to me. But this didn't come out half bad! I like the style, and minute details, and her pose and curved legs are beautiful. Her hair is wonderful too, and the background works very well being contained in a frame. I'd like to see some more vivid colours in the background, and for the girl to stand out more from it, but apart from that, this has turned out really nicely.

Thanks for the niceness!
I actually think that it would look better if she stood out more, like you suggested. I'll see if I can do that without breaking the paper.

I have no critiques for I'm at a lower level... ^^U sorry.
I still don't know how you use the colors to make those kind of efects (the skirt for once) I Agree with ~bugdrool, you HAVE a special hability with colors, you accept it or not.

You're not at a lower level. And even if you were that isn't relevant. As long as you have eyes & something to type with, you're all set to critique me.
Thanks for the compliment.

gorgeoussss. you're really good with colored pencils.
i really like the background and the color of the sky.
critiques? basically nothing. she looks a little stiff, but i dunno if that was intended.
excellent job! :]

jollyfish In reply to bugdrool [2006-06-12 02:05:15 +0000 UTC]
Yes, she's a bit doll-like, so the stiffness was drawn purposely.
Thanks for the niceness.
