Description
This is a birthday gift for a friend, but I'm not quite happy with it.So, if you could provide any sort of critique, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
EDIT
A DD??? No way!!! Wow, I got on this morning, expecting to see the results for the birthday things from yesterday... and instead, I find this!
Thank you so much for the suggestion and
Btw: I do realize most of the anatomy is off, so I'll see if I get a chance to retouch it

I think that the shape of the arms need to be improved. Besides that, it looks great!

I personally would try to get more of a feel of motion to it. Don't make it Look like she's dancing, make it Feel like she's dancing.

yeayea ok. i didnt mean to offend you.
i was just pissed off because mostly all dds are real "wow-pieces" and there are just so many mistakes in the anatomy...
gratz to your dd.
hope you enjoy being part of dAs high society now^^

"hope you enjoy being part of dAs high society now^^"
ahaha, I've had 2 daily devs so far and I am so not in the 'high society'. I don't think DDs should be taken so seriously, they're not sparkly prizes or anything, they're nice features and 'thumbs up' for an artist... so no high society in there

haha^^ yeah, I guess you're rightXD well, you HAVE to know it^^
but it surely gives you lots of additional pageviews and at least a chance that people would have a look at the rest of your gallery as well.
With high society I meant those who really think they are better than the rest because of one dd

It's okay. To be honest, I was absolutely surprised, due to all the mistakes, but I'm guessing it was chosen mainly because of the feeling or something it evokes.

kitzekatze In reply to MagdalenaTR [2008-08-11 15:25:44 +0000 UTC]
yes, that's probably the reason. I mean, it really has a nice atmosphere with its special lightings and stuff.
I found an image in the populars which really reminded me of yours, I think you might like it: [link]

MagdalenaTR In reply to Harry4Hermy [2008-08-10 00:50:19 +0000 UTC]

It was done using Photoshop and a Wacom Tablet.
I used mainly the airbrush

Love the yellowy colors
It rained here today, and my friend and i ran outside, around the block, dripping, sopping wet all the way through. hahaha, so much fun. (:
The rain boots are awesome.

Yeah, the anatomy is a little off, but I love the concept of this. It caught my eye on the bottom of the page, and I love it. Great job.

There's so much emotion you captured here, don't worry about the anatomy

the light patch on the sidewalk behind her throws off the depth for me, but it doesn't spoil the piece from being remarkable.

I don't think her right knee would face that way, and her right arm is bent a bit too much at the elbow, and I think her shoulders are a bit too small... But I love the colors and her expression, and, hey! Congrats on the DD.

Unfortunately, I have no advanced critique to offer. All I can say it that it is an excellent use of colour and that it looks like it could brighten any mood.
But I have to ask... is there a subliminal image in the walls, or is it just my imagination?

No subliminal image, just the name of the friend this was made for (Laura)

I like the colours and the lighting, but the anatomy is a bit off. The arm holding the umbrella doesn't look like it is bending the right way, maybe try it so the hand is facing forwards? Also, the arms are a different thickness. The right arm (not holding the umbrella) needs something perspective-wise to show which was it is bent.
I'm not an expert at these things, but I tried my best. Overall, much better than anything I could do anyway.

Wow!
Amazing!
I loved it!
I don't usually critique ppl who can draw and color better than me, but since U want,,, All what I think that there is something wrong with her left hand, the middle finger looks kinda big!
But indeed, this is a great picture!Keep it up!

yeah i really like it, the bright colours really bring a happy mood to what would ordinarily be a sad rainy day. when you create it doesn't have to look real, becuase in changind the mood to happy it gives the picture a kind of deeper meaning.. more than just a girl dancing in the dark rain. realy nice, the person will be happy i recon

because the lighting is sooo beautifully done. I also absolutely adore the bold crispness of the girl and umbrella against the blurry rainy background. Excellent!

You should add a lampost shineing down on her, that way you don't have to worry so much about changing the light.
