Description I spent soo long doing this...approximately 32 hours. I'm going to redo the background some time later this summer cause I'm not happy with it at all.
Lots of references used X_X ie) magazine clipping of the model and random google photos for the chair

Oh my georsh, thats fabulous! I love how everything looks so real and touchable, that if you were to reach out you could feel the silky smoothness of the dress, or the chilly mist, or I need to stop talking because I sound silly.

Anyhow, this is a job better than well done. And I hope that poor girl doesn't wake up with a terrible crick in her neck. I fell asleep like that once in a car, and did not wake up feeling young.

Wow, the silk dress looks so much like... well, SILK! How do ya do that so well?

But I'm still confused about the 'Nightmare' title; is it to throw off the viewer associating yellow with happiness with a forboding background like that to create an errie feeling, or is that simply because you think your background was a nightmare to do. I've had trouble doing them meself, even without certain color moods like this, but this is by far the best I've seen IMHO (I can see what tools and brushes you've used, and I think it really works well.)

Sorry if I sounded critique-heavy this is beautiful, it's true!

I think you should keep the background; it's gorgeous. :3 It reminds me of the dimond forest in the book The Twelve Princesses.

Yeah. Geek moment there, sorry.

yup yup, I'm definitely keeping the bg on this one, but I'm planning on making another for the same pic as I'm planning on including this into my portfolio >.<

The Twelve Princesses...cool title, I haven't read it, but I would like to if I could find it in the library...who's the author of the book?

lol no worries...reading isn't geeky X3

Bloodandrain In reply to ItchyStitch [2005-07-21 00:39:14 +0000 UTC]

It's a fairytale, actually. You should be able to find it by lots of authors. I have the book that's accompanied by gorgeous illustrations. They look just like this picture, which made me think of that. :3
