I thought this idea Axil had was pretty cool, and it's been interesting to watch the results so far, but this was the first reference that inspired me to participate.

Oooh, this looks really good. I love the way you did the glass.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 1, 2005)

Yes, tis a very pretty reference picture. Thanks... and it does like it's new home :).

The man looked like he was moving closer to the girl, and the girl's expression changed. Looks pretty good though.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 1, 2005)

Yeah, in the reference it looked to me like she thought he was equivalent to something on the bottom of her shoe, so I changed her expression.

Might actually finish this one. Later. Saving now because Lascaux never liked me.

very simple....nice

Shanghai (Feb 28, 2005)

I know I've seen an artist that has a very similar style but I can't think of who. Anyways from the title I'm getting the impression this is a close up of a wall plug but from the picture alone I'm seeing a very tall, thin building that's on fire and has smoke pouring out the top floor window. I'm also very tired and may be seeing things differently.

Gigge (Feb 28, 2005)

What an unusually usual subject. The soft warm lighting against the cold metal is a nice mix. I like this.

davincipoppalag (Feb 28, 2005)

I hope you do finish . It's an interesting choice of subject matter, and I like it too.

This looks great so far.

[edit]How about if you post the link of Zack's ref pic in your description? (u know, instead of going back to the 'How About This?' topic in the forum to check back on it--just a thought). Make it easier for people, ya know. [/edit]

concannon (Feb 28, 2005)

Mmrwor. Great job, I love it. I've been thinking about doing something with that ref, too.

staci (Feb 28, 2005)

yeah totally great job...you got the mood down for sure. the only small thing i would hve added would be some bolder scratchy like marks on the pane of glass in front of the couple so they look more behind it. but woo for her hair

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Feb 28, 2005)

I'm working on this one now... I thought it was such a cool ref. Just dropped in to say I really like your interpretation of it.
