Description My second piece coloured using Photoshop PS3 and my new Wacom Intuos3 tablet.

I swear, this piece took ages to finish. I think you would be able to tell looking at my lack of submissions for such a long time. There was a ton of experimenting, almost dying, bleeding eyes and playing with my tablet involved.

Not the greatest shading nor colours. But hope you like =3. I worked my ass off for this.

Credit goes to [link] for the flowery brushes in the background.

I found your page through the One Million Masterpiece and I'm glad I did. Your gallery is so unique and energetic.

Okay, so advanced critique: Everything looks nice, but the hair gets kind of faded near the ends and her left forearm looks a little longer than her right.

She looks really good! Sort of reminded me of Lenne from FF X-2. I love the way you drew her face =]

Keep up the good job~

This would be better suited to a people.portraits rather than fantasy. I really like this piece, but it doesn't do what it should. It could be so nice and really amazing, but it falls short of that with just a few minor things. It just looks awkward, like look at her, all of her, there's something about her outlines and the lines that's just so.......not good. There's way too many white lines in the corset, you can reduce that by raising the tolerance thingy when you click between the lines. Redo some of those lines, and I think it will be MUCH MUCH better, a little more shading wouldn't hurt either. Good job though, just try to work on some of those little things.

Yeah, I noticed the problem with the lines. I made a mistake at the beginning and only realized it when it was too late. The entire time, not knowing how to separate the black lines from the white space, I was painting on top of the lines, which made it very difficult. I'll start right next time, though.
About the white lines, what's the tolerance thing that you're talking about? ^^' Can you explain, please?
Thank you very much for the criticism and advice . I'll try using them in my next piece, or when I find the time to fix this one.

When you have your lineart, you don't want to just paint everywhere, so you use the "magic wand tool" and at the top it'll say "Tolerance" And when you click in a white space if you have it set at 0, it will ONLY select the white space, but if you have it set to 45 or 70 or whatever, it'll select part of the grey areas as well. It's really handy if you want to colour inbetween the lines.
