Description Sexy librarian chick and/or hot "study buddy" classmate. With neon orange panties.


OpenCanvas4.5e+

UPDATE: 6/10/09 Refined the lines and details a bit.
UPDATE: 7/21/09 There was actually an error in the shading of her hair and neck. In the previous version, there was no shading behind the hair hanging over her right shoulder. To remedy this, I flattened the appearance of the hair but shaded the neck covered by the strand of hair hanging loose. Realized this while chatting with =violentsamurai lol.

I get a very adam hughes inspiration feel from this, which i assume is what you were aiming for. Very pretty nonetheless

Oh yes, I admire his work very much and love how he fuses a modern, comic style with Mucha and 40s pinup influences.

Were you going to edit or upload the edit - where the space between her right arm and her right side is? Looks like a solid cream colored shape in there by her elbow-to-rib area... Thought I'd see some of the details of the books behind her in that space..

BUT, I love this piece, and am not attempting to critique it, I 'd it the moment I first saw it!

You did a fantastic job, and it's very beautiful! It looks very much like a vector piece in some ways, and very "painted" in others. It's amazing!!

TAHOpaints In reply to violentsamurai [2009-07-21 21:15:33 +0000 UTC]

Oh, there are books there, it's just the tonal values don't make it that apparent. I zoomed in and tweaked that some time ago. Hm, I guess it's also image dithering, it's quite visible in my high-res version. Thanks for pointing it out, anyway.

violentsamurai In reply to TAHOpaints [2009-07-21 21:20:17 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome. I supposed you being the awesome and amazing artist that you are - that would be a detail you didn't "miss"... It's terrible that the image loses that much quality when uploaded to deviantART.

This is very nicely done. Was it done from scratch or did you use a reference picture?

TAHOpaints In reply to duff3d [2009-07-01 16:57:24 +0000 UTC]

Most of it is from scratch, I'd say. My work setup consists of my laptop, tablet, a sketchbook and a full-body mirror. It helps to draw your own hands and such.

Wait, so you mean you draw yourself while looking at a mirror? How does that work? And, yeah that soudns liek a good plan. I will give it a go.

Beautifully executed. The hands, form, color, and shaping are wonderful. I also love the addition of contrast the neon orange panties provide. I would have visited the library every day if she was my librarian.
