almost ready. just need to do some detail stuff, you know, make her a bit more shinier :D
reference was from here http://nudes.hegre-art.com/gallhit/101066/469/1/2/11
edit: i tried working on this for three more hours, but i couldn't get her torso to look right, it just got worse and worse. in the end i gave up. part of the reason was that i had gotten the proportions wrong. in photoshop it wouldn't have been a problem, i would just have used the free transform tool to move around and resize the body parts. but in oekaki i cannot do that. oh well, it just means that i will have be more careful next time :P

lovely draw..love her shininess!

You can do a similar adjustment to what you mentioned re Photoshop in Chibi. Use the square selector tool on the area you want to change, then copy that and paste it to a new layer--maybe want to use Elly's suggestion for the smudge tool at that point because you can experiment now without ruining what you already have. Use the top right 'mover' tool to align your new reworked area, then merge down. I think she's lovely though not a fan of the shaved pudendum look, personally. Her foot looks a bit wide to me, otherwise I don't see any glaring errors in proportion. Gorgeous work on the skin tones and shine.

Very pretty and she looks chocolate dipped...the variation in color is lovely. Is her left nipple finished?..just doesn't look as defined as the right.

lol, OK! That is something else..very nice compliment, indeed. I just mentioned because I remember the monitor trouble you had once upon a time and wasn't sure. ...oh, and thought the left side was just a nice fade out of fur..very nice indeedyy!=D

elly (Mar 2, 2010)

Sunny, I'm impressed with your memory!!! I had a terrible monitor some time ago.....couldn't see half the stuff others were seeing (till I got my mac and went back to look thru my old draws... O_O) ewwww...lol! Thanks again my friend!

Kewl Wall Art

elly (Mar 10, 2010)

I came across a photo showing this really cool Asian wall art a few years ago and hung on to it hoping to try my hand at this in my home one day.. they use paper that's bent and creased in just the right places & then mount them onto the wall, then they used directional light positioned just right to cast shadows of face profiles made by the bent paper...I thought it was quite clever! Since I haven't taken the time to try it first hand, I decided I'd draw it instead!! =) Kewl huh?

elly (Mar 15, 2010)

My first try at a this big guy.....and it's about as good as it's gonna get! As you can tell, I had a rough time getting that snout to look 'decent'....ugh! Still not happy with it...frustrating but I've got to move on from this one. At least I did learn some things along the way =)

Beautiful..the texture is amazing..you really should have done this in advanced...

elly (Mar 19, 2010)

Aww, thanks BMW =) I've done a few in advanced...just never sure when I begin a draw if that's the place it should be....no biggie =)

montezmaria (Mar 19, 2010)

I love the leather looking skin on this guy, wow. The skin has many stories to tell, different tones of gray and gold, aged and so beautiful. Love all your work, Elly!

What a beautiful lady! Damn Gigandas, It's just like the ref, but in black n white. Duration 1 day 5 hours! My god! I would never have the patience for that! Yeah I'd say this is Showcase, but then who am I?

I suppose it's finished...arrr. Spent more time on it than expected, and it's larger than I expected. I'm freaking tired of realism.
