Description Scarlet O'Hara-Through The Fire

There... finally it's finished! I was afraid it won't be done in time... It's my second entry for 's contest My Hero!

This is Scarlet O'Hara (Vivien Leigh), main carachter from M. Michells novel Gone With The Wind... I actully haven't read the book, but I've seen the movie at least 50 times... What makes it very special for me how I looked at it on different ways while growing up and I always in a way discover something new! Whole movie is magical but Scarlet... What a woman!!! Always weeping and whining about this and that and her dear Ashley... All the time she's not aware of her amazing strenght, passion and will to live and survive, she made everything possible, not only for herself, but for others too... (and was a bitch to make it happen ) I simply think she's fascinanting and her personal philosophy somehow always affected me:
Tomorrow Is Another Day...


challenge no. 89

and once again... I need a scanner

very nice, smooth shading. i like how soft you made her skin look because of the texture of the paper/shading.
a few things i noticed were that her eyes look a bit like the pupils aren't pointing in the same direction. i realize this is a difficult one to pull off because of the lighting being different on her eyes.
And I wouldn't mind seeing the harsh shadow below her left eye softened out a bit as it looks like makeup right now.
you have some excellent portraits in your gallery! keep up the good work!

First of all, thanks a lot for your comment!!! Feedback like yours is aways welcome. I noticed that eyes look slightly off the same direction, but I didn't bother myself with that a lot beacause that nasty shadow got me crazy I'm still not satisfied with it but I couldn't make it better

you're welcome. It was a pleasure looking through your gallery.
As for minor errors like that, well, I do them too, it's already a great step forward when you see there's something wrong by yourself

Do scanners cost much there?

shapudl In reply to coNstantine2530 [2008-04-29 12:45:02 +0000 UTC]

Well not really, but I have been told that cheap scanner is worse than bad camera.. Problem is that everything else is expensive, and prices keep rising and rising so it's really harder to save money...
I meant to buy a scanner of my scholarship but unfortunately I didn't get it
Thanks!!!

don't see how it would be funny or weird; i personally like older movies better than most newer ones. Hollywood has lost its sense of art in film making.

Oh I completly agree with you, but I was talking about her eyes! I'm glad you don't find them wierd! Shame for Hollywood... I practicaly don't watch new movies at all... lately I'm addicted to old Disney Classics... They are simply magical...

I am just the same! I don't even have TV though; just me, Richi, a bunch of old movies and tv series, and a PS2 lol!

btw, I am absolutely tickled you chose the infamous lifted eyebrow look she always gives ^_^

Lifted eyebrow was a must on her portrait! I simply love when she does at, and I consider it almost her sign! Thanks!

Love her And you should definitely read the book if you liked the film, the characters are much more developed. As is the case with most books, really.
