They are recognizable, of course, which brings out the value in this contrast Nicely done!

It is very easy to guess. Even when I hadn't opened the image in full size yet that I had already recognized her. Your skills are amazing ! I wish I could have the same !

practice? ROTFWL. These images are amazing! The pearly light on the central girl's face is captivating. My fav on the right, could be a dark romance / fantasy cover. You're getting even better... please keep 'practicing'!

theDURRRRIAN In reply to chocholate-chan [2013-02-26 13:23:19 +0000 UTC]

first and second actually

i need to work on making the models look more like them than someone else

chocholate-chan In reply to theDURRRRIAN [2013-02-26 21:28:23 +0000 UTC]

The middle one looks so much like Effie because of the makeup and the really unique nose that Kaya has.
I guess that the first one I couldn't guess because of the lack of the dark eye makeup that Effie ussualy wears.

Beautiful! I love the contrast in the first two; the last is a little less so but still great. Something about her mouth bothers me the tiniest bit... Could just be my eyes though xD

You should draw me for practice!
