Description Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.” ~ Harriet Tubman

----------

Hi guys!!! Happy New Year 2008!!!! Here's to a successful new year!

----------

This is, I feel, my best work yet. I'm beginning to learn to paint more realistically...

Tools: Photoshop CS, Graphire4, and my dress as reference (Bought this lovely white dress which I planned to wear for Christmas, but ended up wearing another dress... But I'll wear it on New Year's Eve... )

My left (Her right) hand looks cut off. Don't shy away from drawing the hands, it would add a lot to the picture.

Thank you for the constructive criticism.
Her right hand was "cut off" because it's behind the hems of the dress...

Yuujin In reply to ??? [2007-12-29 14:59:45 +0000 UTC]

really nice composition and colors and nice details, although if you'd like to receive some critics then one hand is a bit too much undetailed and the skirt is strangely shaded, try imagine her legs beyond

whateverwinnie In reply to Yuujin [2007-12-29 15:25:06 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the constructive criticism...
Actually, the dress does look like that! The hems of the dress are gathered in several places and are oddly sewed together, thus the oddly formed shadows. (Apparently, this style is rather popular in Asian fashion. )
