Spectacular! I love finding true artists There are very good manips and overpaintings out there, but I always prefer an artist (and artwork) done from scratch; well done.

I can kind of see what you mean as far as the eyes. Never seen that image before in my life, but then I'm not the world's biggest Megan Fox fan, lol. Like I said, my biggest inspiration for this image was definitely Melanie Delon's style. [link] I'm not big into using celebrities as reference for my work when my own face or making one up will do.

ahha, i know what ya mean. i actually REALLY dislike her.... like A LOT xD i find her overrated, fake, and irritating xD and i know you make up your own faces, i can see it in all your other wonderful works of art it's juss when i saw this, for some reason, to me, some of the features really reminded me of her. but like a better, classier version of her. ahha, im sorry if im offending you in any way, im really not trying to xD
also, OMG!! at the link, those portraits are amazing, some of them i can't even tell that they aren't real xD i especially love the first picture, she's beautiful

I like the subtle suggestion of winter you have in this with the few dashes of snow in the air. It feels like a more unconventional vision of winter due to the darker colours and I especially like it for this! You have achieved a really beautiful sense of realism in her features also. Great viewing.

Thanks so much! I didn't mean for her to look gothic or dark, just in a night setting, but I can see what you mean. Thanks for your comments.

Oh yes, I certainly didn't mean in terms of gothic, and definitely not that she has some dark ulterior motive. There is just this darker visual edge to it. It's hard to describe fully, but hopefully you do understand what I am trying to get at. It's just different and that is in no way a bad thing. Anyway, you are most welcome.

Beautiful details - the lace on her shirt and the snowflake - brilliant!

Thanks! I usually don't do so well with making jewelry up, or clothes, but I'm happy with them this time around.

Brilliant.
That limited palette really serves the mood of the image well.
The skin on the face looks amazing.
Terrific expression too.
Great work.

Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. It reminds me somewhat of a gothic Amanda Seyfried. Wonderful job.

Heh, yeah I kind of see that. I didn't mean for her to be gothic, honest! From the beginning I was thinking "snow princess" but then day turned to night and her blue lipstick and lace on her shirt do indeed make her look a little goth! Oops!
