Description Title: Raven

Description: My first Raven fanart piece! I tried to keep things simple concerning her pose and the background, so as to make sure to get the basic things such as proportion right. I know it doesn't really look much like her, but I think I need to practice before I can master the true art of TT fanart.

Information: Painted using acrylics, and the contrast adjusted slightly (the original scan didn't come out very well). Created over a period of a week or so- 3 to 4 hours all together.

i love this piece! and amazing use of acrylics btw. and I love how her cloak/cape isn't flat at the end and how it almost becomes the background...if that made sense

Very good overall. The gradient is lovely and her eyes really seem to glow. However, she seems rather top-heavy; her chest is quite large, but her hips never flare back out to meet it. Female anatomy is a lot like an hourglass. Her torso is a bit too short as well.
Overall, the pic is very good. The painting is lovely, and my only real grip is her torso's proportions. ^_^

Cool! I like how the white contrasts the black and makes her stand out well!

I like the blue flames. But her right hand looks a little awkward...

nicely done...how I wish i could see the real thing.
Its true that it didnt shine that much after u scanned it...there is something lacking. The colors are quite ok...maybe stronger the next time.

Overall, 9 out of 10 stars!

How big of canvas, I love it, though a bland, industrial envorment would make a great consting background, love it!

Ok, first off I really like the lighting on Raven, great job. Also, I really like how you can see the transformation of her cape. The proportions seem a little off to me, either that or the pose is arkward, or both. Other than that, I have no complants. Nice job getting the light colors to seamlessly turn into the dark colors.

i like it, raven was my favourite character in Teen Titans. i like all the shine you did to her glossy clothes.

one thing thats bugging me, her stomach looks completly flat, like paper. everywhere else shes very round (like she should me), but her stomach, doesnt have any depth.

WoW so many comments running around here xD

i say that the blending of the blues and the black on the shadow emanating from her cape is really well done.

i like it, although if you were trying to go for what's on t.v. her cape thing should've been a little darker and not as blue... it's more like blue purpleish

I like the way you painted her---she is my fave character in teen titans!
But you could try painting a better background, then the 'feeling' of the'raveness' will be there!

Not bad, not bad at all. The coloring and the pose is awesome. My only critique could be that the head seems a bit large.
