I completely forgot the fact that you replied to my comment on w1k nearly 3 years ago!
Definitely looks so much better with cleaner line on the head!

It is a very nice concept, I love your idea Here is what I think would make it better. The top of her head/the "sliced orange", seems to be tilted a bit too much. The peeling would do nicely with some "thickness", it looks paper-thin right now.
Hm, I would say that taking the spot light on her face into consideration, is does not seem to match with the shadows made by the vines and peel, maybe even the neck.
I hope you can use it for something, if you can agree with me. But nice job

Oooh, thank you SO much for the critique ! I don't often get such helpful and detailed comments. And I definitely see what you mean, now that you've pointed it out--the angle of the slice in her head has always vaguely bothered me, but I never even noticed the lighting or the orange-peel depth. If I still had the picture I'd rush off to try and fix it. As it is, I'll keep everything you've said in mind for my next pic.

Thanks again for your advice! It was really helpful!

What a cool concept. Aside from the orange peel around her shoulders, there's something about her smile that really pulls me into the image.

Great work!

whoa thats an awesome concept
i think it was very well done
the background is pretty cool
and the orange peel is too
perhaps the composition is a bit off or maybe the direction of the light source....
anyway its a great picture good job ^^

AnnPars In reply to CaveDwellers [2008-09-06 19:22:41 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Yeah, it looks a bit off to me when I do the whole 'looking at it in a mirror' thing; I think I've found some of the problems, will try not to make them in the next picture

It's a beautiful picture, most would kill to have this much skill and talent rush forth out of a marker drawing... I think the color might be a little off, it looks like it should be brighter, but isn't... if that makes sense. But it's still quite lurvely.

AnnPars In reply to CupcakeGeisha [2008-08-30 05:10:55 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! yeah, you might be right about the brightness. I corrected the scan on my laptop, so I might be looking at the screen at an angle which would screw up the brightness . . . I'll go double check on another computer when I get the chance .
