Description Lines:: [link] by

From the line art artist comment:: "She was the mailman, between two world: heaven and hell, you can give her an angle, would be a sub-demons, would be a man, let your imagination be Altitude.
Let's go surfing with her, the wind, clouds, and the primary devil cute, gentle angels"

EDIT:: Thanks everyone who has fave'd or commented thus far. It really is good to know that I'm getting better and faster. I was really aiming to create a mod/atmosphere and it feels like I achieved my goal. So, again thanks everyone for the feedback.

I haven't entered a CMC contest in a while, but I had the time for a change and the lineart was too cute to resist So, yeah, this is an entry for the August coloring contest.

Overall

Vision

Originality

Technique

Impact


Wow! Probably one of the more impressive pieces I've seen on deviantart. Right away I have to say that the use of perspective really gives me a sense of direction. I have a feeling of where everything is like she whizzing by over my head. Beyond that your technique is obviously great. Use of color, shading, lighting are all great. One thing I noticed though that could make or break a work of art depending on who your talking to. I find myself immediately drawn to her face. I'm not sure if you did that on purpose but the contrast of her blonde hair and blue eyes kind of stick out. I can't really say if that is a good or bad thing but some people would say that the contrast could take away from the rest of the image. Story always adds to any work of art and your description only served to make the impact of your work more powerful. I really love your work and you can only get better from here. I'll be "watching" for more.

Oh, I like your idea of color, it is impressive . I think the way you paint clouds are not very reasonable, you may be confused with a few other something reasonable? If you fill out wide cloud, strong strokes of my hand to ignore, I think it would be great. Thank you for highlighting my painting, I hope you're excited about it

Thanks The translator you are using is a little off? I'm not sure what you meant about the clouds, but I'm glad you like the piece overall.

What the artist is trying to tell you here is, the problem with the clouds is from using an inappropriate technique to color them. With the coloring style you used on this, you would get a better result by ignoring the line art, and then using your cloud brush with just white, so that the cluds blend in to the background rather than stand out from it. The way you tried to color realistic clud surfaces into his cartoon style lineart makes them look almost like items in the foreground with the character swirling around her feet. Aside from that, no offense meant to the artist who dre wthe lineart, but your colors on this piece far exceed the composition of the original lineart. good work.

First off, thanks for taking the time to read the comments in context with the image. It's really helpful to get information from multiple sources. (Especially if I can't understand one ) As for the clouds I see what you're saying. I try to hold true to the lineart as much as possible because I truly respect the artist who has let me use their lines to color. But I may have pushed that a little too far. Is it more the shape and definition/detail of the clouds that bring them to the front or the more saturated color? I didn't even notice while working and even now over a month later how distracting they are around her feet since in my mind they were clearly background elements. Guess it just shows me that I need to work on translating what I see in my eyes to everyone else Thanks again for your informative and very complementary comment! Truly appreciate the time you took to give me feedback.

JonHughes In reply to TimareeZadel [2010-09-21 08:20:24 +0000 UTC]

No problem. It's the shape and the saturation I think. For this piece a soft hint of white with very little definition probably would have been more suitable.

Thanks again. I'll keep that in mind in future works for sure.

Great colours on this, especially love how you did the lines (or lack thereof) on the skin.

TimareeZadel In reply to weisen1 [2010-08-15 05:23:38 +0000 UTC]

Thanks And yes, the lines are still there, I just colored them to match the lightest/brightest part of the skin since the black was really distracting and ugly Glad it was a good choice

Thanks so much for your feedback It's great to hear that I was able to create a definite mood to the piece. But the contest itself is only halfway through, and I've seen some amazing coloring submitted on the last day! I do hope I can stay in the running though, cause I had a blast working on it

thanks again for your comments
