Wow, I havent been on here forever. Maybe because everyone was so rude commenting my other art. Yay for support. Anyways, here. I actually have a shirt that says hope three times. And I was going to have no back ground. So, a stupid one is better than none, right? Meh.

trying to make the wings more part of her body.. lightened the face, it was too dark. and changed the eyes to green, you know, for the contrast.. got rid of the horns for now.. made the tail point towards the viewer. i think its a bit better now, but it might look even better if the tail rested on top of her legs. i'll try that later... got rid of the props, but now i don't know what to put there instead. or should i just forget the whole prop idea?... maybe i should just try out the classic (small) devils horns on her forehead?

Layne - thanks :D
yeah, i too thought the wings should stay on. i think they more effectively sell the idea that she's some kinda demon that way :)

Flubbles (Feb 27, 2010)

I think the horns on the forehead would be a good idea, and instead of a sword you could go with a whip.

elly (Feb 27, 2010)

Her face reminds me of some Ben 10 characters...love the lighting =)

have anybody else noticed that it takes a lot longer to upload the drawings than before, or is it just me?
fixed her left leg (the one in the back), it was too short. had to move the whole picture a bit to the right.. maybe now that there's not that much of empty space on the right, i might get away without needing any props. But i would like to have something more, than just a naked demon chick in my painting, even if its just some jewelery.. hmm.. maybe its time to go look at Frazetta paintings for some inspiration :)

elly - it does, doesn't it? :D i guess i and the artists on Ben 10 have just been inspired by the same artists.. yeah and i love dramatic lighting, you can imagine the forms much more clearly than if there's no shadows... it's like i can touch that ass in my mind :D haha :P
Flubbles - i'll try that whip idea :)

[Edit:] maybe its because its 5:48 AM and im really tired, but her head is looking too big to me.. i'll go to sleep and look at this with fresh eyes, maybe its nothing..

Layne (Feb 17, 2010)

So, everyone seems to be doing a little copying from favored painters & illustrators so I thought I would throw in my 2 cent.

This is from Kay Nielsen. I really love all of his work. Especially for the East of the Sun and West of the Moon book. :)

Not done yet, and the lady needs some reworking of the torso and head, but better then nothing!

I bought all the illustrations from that book in card form about...erm...30 years ago. Still have them. Still love them. This is very, very pretty and has captured the feeling of his work.

Layne (Feb 27, 2010)

I am glad you like it. They republished the east of the sun and west of the moon about two(?) years ago in a really nice hardcover edition. :) I was so glad when i saw because while I had a book of his illustrations I really wanted to be able to read the stories that went along with all of his illustrations.

enjoydotcom (Feb 27, 2010)

Very attractive style, those soothing colors are great.

It would be a great contest, draw from your favorite artist. In his or her style.

mursku (Feb 27, 2010)

when i compare your piece with the original, the first thing that pops to my eyes is that the original looks like it was made with watercolors, while yours looks too smooth, there's hardly any texture.. i liked the texture you had going in the fifth version.
if you wanted to have texture like in the original painting, an easy (and quick!) way to do it, would be with a scatter brush (choose a high scatter count and you can maybe crank up the spacing too) on a separate layer. that way you can easily erase the eventual wayward dots from unwanted areas, and you can also play around with the blend mode and opacity (make it subtle)

..hmm, another thing that i noticed was that the original was much more sharper (darker and thinner lines).. i suck at line art so i'll not gonna try to give you any advice on that. You would only get worse if i tried to teach you line art :P
