yeah i like the ones you do like this. they make you think.

Awsome as usual ZEP! I really dig this one. :}

If truth is the desert, I'll stick to the fantasy. It looks so lush. :)

Very nice. It'll be super when yer done :)

EEP! How did I miss this? Oh well better late than never. I have to say I prefer Michael Crawford myself but this is a very nice rendition of the movie guy. His nose on the mask side seems a little uneven and the rose is a little flat but you're not done and I'm sure you know that. Very awesome dixie!

I would say nice things about this, because there are a lot of nice things that you've done. However, when you only focus on other people's negative work (with the exception of the few people you think are too cool to critique), it makes it harder to do that. This picture could be a lot better if you made the transition from the waxy girl a little more consistant. I think you quit on it, which is easy to do. Good job on the nostril and the lips, but the bridge of the nose is weird and the eyes look like the skin is peeling off of it. Of course, it was supposed to be that way @_@! With more practice, maybe you yourself can be in that small group of people that you won't harass. There are degrees of crappiness and your standards are too high. And, there are degrees of tactfulness, and your standards are too low.

Okay....I just read all of that ^ and I am halfway confused because I think some comments have been deleted/removed. So KO I just want to tell you that I only visit 2draw to look at everyone's contributions and I comment on those that amaze me or those that I feel I can help out with my comment. I ignore and skip over all of the other mess/gossip/in the end just words that have nothing to do with art. This way I "protect" myself from becoming so upset about the latest topics taking place here. That enables me to continue visiting this site.

Now on to the more important thing, KO this is an amazing drawing! When I first saw it and that you drew it, I was soooo proud at how your skills have grown. Her nose, lips, chin, and cheeks are excellent! I like the extra bit of pink/purplish color you have added there. And the teeth add nice detail to her expression (which I also love). The outline of the eyes is not just right, and her eyebrows don’t quite fit the rest of the face. I also think that more emphasis would have been put on her expression and face if you made all of her hair black (or leave only a very few highlights) and remove the partial ear. Make the viewer wonder what is this girl looking at that is causing her to have this facial expression.

I am glad you incorporated your different style in the background. This will be one of those drawings that I think about and have to go back to look at it again. Thanks Knockoff :D

Welcome back, knockoff. I like the mix of styles.

That is so beautiful! The colour usage is amazing! :D

Mmm... delicous landscape.

Thanks all.
I draw this using mouse, I lost my wacom pen..... so it's somewhat difficult for me.
I tried to think of China landscape when drawing this...

haha thanks all you guys. Everyone I show it to who doesnt know this site thinks I embossed it and I have to explain I just drew it to look that way. lol. Thanks again you guys rock

Hey, I never saw this finished huh?? Wow, it really does look like you put it into Photoshop and did this. Crap lol. And you say you aren't good at drawing.....well, I have one word for you, "PSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" plus an 'H'!

coming from you that is a very high compliment Gig-thank you

Wow, great job on that so far. Can't wait until it's finished. :)

Heh, it was fun to go through the versions and see how the detail was worked up. Keep going, I think it'll look great.

wow! thanks for the response everyone. i'll be looking to finish this very soon.

hello new friend you have made. Good job on the chain and the perspective on the nose. It doesnt look like an easy position to draw.

very good rosalyn. i like everything.

great realism. I hardly see anything wrong with it.

I just feel that time/effort spent and actual quality achieved are two different things, and the boards are based on the quality not the time. If you look at the rest of her gallery, there's at least 7 things almost exactly like this originally posted here and then later moved to beginner. Personally I think it'd take a lot more to bring this up to intermediate level than just a couple hearts in the background. I'm not intending to be mean in any way with this, I'm just choosing to be honest and not sugar coat my opinions since, at this point, I would think she'd have gotten the idea that she needs to try a little harder and improve a little more before she gets to the next level.

-and I'm more than willing to help too, since there's been many people I've given informal art lessons to over msn or aim.

actually the name yuki can be a girl or a guys name. In japanese "yuki" means "snow"

@ redpanda: acutally i just needed more room to draw...lol ><

I knew that it means snow, I just thought the name was only used for boys.

thanks, but I kinda wanted her to be unsee-able

I like the jewels she has instead of eyebrows! Nice young popstar! >:D
