Description Full view please!

Another picture I did for fun and just generally to practise skin tone. I saw a piece a long time ago that inspired me to doodle this, and have been working on and off on it ever since - because I haven't been taking it seriously it's certainly taken me a long time.

Just a couple of fun facts - the woman's name is Phoenix, and the bird, though a phoenix itself, wasn't originally part of the sketch XD By way of bird-lovers, I modelled my phoenix on an osprey, but I know nothing about bird anatomy really! *apologises*

Comments appreciated, and enjoy.

Um. *Just stares at it for a long time* Um... wow.

The phoneix is gorgeous, the girl is gorgeous, the fabric is gorgeous, as is the concept and the colours....
I just.... REALLY like this one. Seriously.

Poor lass is awfully exposed, perched on the wall there, baring her Dagenham Cleavage* for all the world to see! The bird looks fine to me, rather like one of those elaborately-coloured displaying birds found in the tropics (and on wildlife programmes, of course). +fav

* term applied to building site workers here in the UK - in the past, it was not uncommon to see one with their arse-crack showing over the top of their trousers as they bent over, and this, combined with their traditional habit of wolf-whistling passing ladies, probably led to the phrase being coined. Quite where Dagenham comes into it, I don't know...

Haha, I'm in the UK too so I know all about that Now you mention it, it's quite amusing to think she has " builder's bum"

Oh yeah, on my to-do list is to take a stab at reproducing your character Baal - someway, somehow, I will get there before the month is out. The ideas are there, just need to figure out how to get them onto the screen (and past my sucky drawing skillz )

Oooh, nice job on the skin, but I like the scarf better. I'm on the stitches! I love the head piece, and yeow, shake that booty.

Lol, yeah actually I wanted to practise folds in cloth too, but I'm not sure I did such a good job of that

anael In reply to skeletonfishpunk [2004-02-17 21:54:03 +0000 UTC]

Hmm. The folds are good, but they move like water rather than cloth, which tends to have harder edges in som areas. I have a similar problem. My characters tend to look like they're wearing liquid.
