Wonderful job. The texture of the grass is lovely, but there 'is' room for improvement on this peice. Typically, if you leave a border like this white, it should be filled up with other things.. For instance, you could add little dim feathers here and there. Thick white borders are normally unattractive.

Wonderful job overall, however.

Yes,well,er..The reason for all the extra white-ness is because it's going on my web page,and the background is white so it'd looklike it would blend in.As for the compression,it totally killed it. x_x;

Thanks for the C&C though. :)

you should be shot for changing the mouse cursor over links. everyone who does that without good reason should be.
p.s.: the front page image background isn't white, it's kinda pinkish and doesn't match the background.

The body proportions and pose is wonderful. I think it's interesting how in the first drafts of it, you wanted the earth to be something of a translucent ball.. And it progressed into this. But I think the outcome is gorgeous. Wonderful job, as usual. ^_^ *Applauds.*

Anime? This looks nothing like anime, unless there's some other definition of anime...

Noice detail! Like the eyes and lips. Nice "Total Size" as well..

Hey, this one gives me an idea :). Since there's a bumper sticker for "Silly boys, trucks are for girls," there should be a "Silly boys, sais are for girls" hehe :P. You should put one of those on your car :).

Erm...tried to add more contrast. D: Oh, and thanks for the comments. :)

Axil62 (edited Jan 31, 2004)

You did a great job lucy. Darker darks, careful where you place them (the eye follows them through the pic so try to get the eye to move from upper left down through the pic with them) and distinguish the background by pushing it back a little (things in the distance get less detailed and grayer, in this case probably a tad darker and less focused) The only other thing is the symmetrical face. Faces are not <i>really</i> symmetrical. If you look at a photo of most anyone straight on you can cover half the face with your hand or a piece of paper or whatever, take a good look, then cover take your hand or the piece of paper and move it to the other side of the face and take a good look at the other half of the face. You'll find that the eyes are not identical and the other features are a little different from one half of the face to the other. Of course you might be doing the symmetrical thing on this panting on purpose for an effect, I don't know for sure, I'm not there. Good job.

Hmm...I see. Thanks, I'll be sure to keep all that in mind for furture drawings. :)
