Kel looks so cool here I love this character and I am happy whenever she gets a really beautiful rendition: this is amazing!

Aww, thanks for all the love!!

Kel is the definition of a fierce character, just looking at her design I was captivated, and then learning she was a vampire on top of it? Such a cool premise honestly!

Thank you so much!! I'm trying to get better at textures, since I tend to give all my clothes the same weirdly smooth texture, so I'm really happy to hear this. And Kel is such a wonderful character too

Aaa, thank you for the comment sm!  I'm always trying to get better with lighting, as well as experimenting and doing different things. The word natural also means so much, because I tend to feel my portraits look a little stiff, so I really appreciate you thinking that!

Seriously, thanks for the kind praise!

stunsail [2017-12-29 16:02:42 +0000 UTC]

Looks great! I Like that blood trickle that flows down on the knife, and her eyes looks strong and emotionless, but piercing at the same time. It's fascinating, in some way.

candemarzat In reply to stunsail [2017-12-29 18:44:22 +0000 UTC]

OMG, thank you so much!! your art is so much goals, it humbles me to know you like this at all. And I tried to give her a sort of determined but cold blooded look, if that makes sense, so your description fits perfectly!

DesigningLua [2017-12-29 14:39:49 +0000 UTC]

I like the contour lines, they make for a unique style. They remind me of the stained glass scenes in old cathedrals. Nice effect.

candemarzat In reply to DesigningLua [2017-12-29 18:42:06 +0000 UTC]

That makes me so happy to hear!  And nobody has ever compared my art to stained glass, that is such a huge compliment honestly, it's amazing for me to know they remind you of them in anyway. Thank you lots, this made me smile <3

InkyRose [2017-12-28 18:28:39 +0000 UTC]

I love how intense her eyes are, they seem to pierce the very screen! The detail on the handle of the blade is very original and I love the little trickle of blood coming down her chin, an interesting little addition- great portrait!

candemarzat In reply to InkyRose [2017-12-28 18:33:06 +0000 UTC]

Omg, so glad you like it! I debated on what color to paint the handle in (I even tried a blue variation), but in the end red seemed to be more fitting of the whole vampire theme haha. And it goes well with the blood so that's a plus as well . Thanks for taking the time to comment too, it's very much appreciated <33

The more detailed you get with those faces, the more I begin to notice how many different techniques you use for different parts of the body and different details. I'd be curious to see how you put together the lighting on the shoulders and blend it into the chest. I think I see how it's done, but I'm not 100% sure. The fact that you can seamlessly combine them, though, speaks so much to your artistic ability!

candemarzat In reply to ysasi [2017-12-27 06:57:57 +0000 UTC]

your comments are always so detailed and observant, thank you for all the encouragement! I have to admit I'm always trying new brushes and different styles of blending, and it's a lot more evident here because I got a bit carried away haha. Regarding the lighting, I tend to use different color variations on color dodge, soft light and different type of layer setting for starters; I haven't perfected my approach to lighting at all, but I'm finding it easier with each piece, so I think it's all about keeping at it!
 
Again, thanks for all the praise, it makes me happy to know I'm improving
