Weren't those things the ugliest things ever made! What a dumb craze. You captured it perfectly

melmelbo (Feb 8, 2008)

Those things scared me so much as a child. I thought they were like Chucky... this picture seems to be spot on. lol. Good job though.

lori (Feb 8, 2008)

ahhh lol... really nicely done

gel_o (Feb 9, 2008)

This is really good. I can always find your drawings amongst the many. Great work!

Very nice Starzshine. Your work is most impressive!

lori (Feb 9, 2008)

I'm just wondering where the other boob is

davincipoppalag (Feb 9, 2008)

She had a mastectomy

STARZSHINE (Feb 9, 2008)

In the reference pic. you cant see the other breast, it is below the floral setting, from this angle you can't even see the swell of the breast, it again is to the side of the rib cage. There is another ref pic done from at the leg area level which shows this. In actuality the figure is at an extreme positioning and the back is arched sharpely at the neck and shoulders to the right which causes the other breast to be hidden off to the side. As "real" breasts would do. Almost under the armpit if you will...link http://flickr.com/photos/13099168@N08/2254221832/

O.O is all I can do O.O

MARLONSEPPALA (edited Aug 28, 2008)

Oddly enough though Sweetcell, you must be a Space fan just seeing the original color of the Helmet shield and the connections of air lines. The fact you are perplexing on the Shape of the right arm is interesting now. I think if you run the memory tapes about the suits they wore in Apollo. You will remember how stiff and puffy the arms were in space.
So with that, in my opinion it's his left arm that seems to be unrealistic. Tends to look far more loose and bending easier than what they did. Although I do see what you mean otherwise. His right arm does have like no elbow eh ! that happens to be how I remember them looking in real life. Very stiff creatures indeed.

Sweetcell (Aug 28, 2008)

Um, that's how it LOOKS in the ref.

Perplaxing? Air Lines?

MARLONSEPPALA (edited Aug 28, 2008)

Yes the fittings for the Air lines are what color I remember them being. They had seperate connections for a back up on their chest. The connections also worked to connect to a main supply when they did not have their packs on, usually when boarding for launch.
Yes I did make a mistake Perplexing. Just seem how you was commenting about the arm. Sounded like you was feeling perplexed about changing it or not.

Another fine drawing Starz! I have not tried anything yet on 2Draw but jpjp is really enjoying this site and I see that you are too! Keep em coming.

KuteDymples (Feb 10, 2008)

I just realizes Starz.....you are new here. I go look at so much art on these sites I see you so many places with your fine art. I just thought you had been here forever until I read that comment. Not that I take your art for granted. It is wonderful and I look forward to seeing it anywhere and everywhere. It blows me away! You have to be one of my favorite online artists.

Roytje (Feb 11, 2008)

Nice textures :)

MissA_sketches (Mar 19, 2008)

Awesome draw Starz! I just adore your use of vibrant colors and details! And congrats on using layers! I imagine it'll be a long while before I stick my toe in that "paint bucket"....lol.

EYE STUDY

STARZSHINE (Feb 6, 2008)

Thought I would try another applet, and I think I like this one better, Love the airbrush. Seems as though the colors are more saturated when uploaded than in the drawing for mat??? maybe it is just me,...lol

Hey honey, the tools in Lascaux are a little different, but not that much different and it has airbrush. If you look at the box with the different brushes you see a small point, then another, a square, solid circle, and a "softer circle". That's the airbrush and I love using it. If you just remember to adjust the flow and opacity (below the tool bar) you can get the look of good airbrushing and watercolor.

This is a really good eye. The lashes seem a bit thick (Tammy Faye.) but I love how you did the pupil. Keep it up.

davincipoppalag (Feb 6, 2008)

Beautiful . I don't use that one so I can't help you with it.

jpjp1052 (Feb 7, 2008)

Very nice, Starz. I think you are going to be making some amazing drawings on this site.

gel_o (Feb 9, 2008)

Wow, you've been busy on this site. This is VERY good, Starz!

STARZSHINE (Feb 3, 2008)

Not much to say other than this is my first submission, and I really don't know how to use layers or any of the tools, lol, but just the basics, brushes and palate. oh well, it's a start anyway. the ref for this is compliments of justinblackstudios http://justinblackphotos.deviantart.com/art/Natural-2-29881444
