Ok, I know it's still early for Valentine's Day and it's not because I'm fond of this holiday, it's just because Valentine's Day is my mom's birthday and I think she would like it. Also my birthday's in Feb. too and I like some of the colors of the holiday.

It's a quickie of a rose for Valentine's Day. Any pointers or tips welcome.

I'd appreciate if you guys stop insulting each other's beliefs. If you disagree with someone, tell them on your own time, somewhere else.

Another Stupid File Size Question

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 30, 2004)

I saw some comments on a drawing wherein Marcello directed to a spot where he explained the file size issue for Lascaux, but I still have a question. Is there a way to check the file size of the current drawing you are working on (in Lascaux) BEFORE any submissions, possibly somewhere on the applet page?

Wonderful job. The texture of the grass is lovely, but there 'is' room for improvement on this peice. Typically, if you leave a border like this white, it should be filled up with other things.. For instance, you could add little dim feathers here and there. Thick white borders are normally unattractive.

Wonderful job overall, however.

Tamuriil (Jan 30, 2004)

Yes,well,er..The reason for all the extra white-ness is because it's going on my web page,and the background is white so it'd looklike it would blend in.As for the compression,it totally killed it. x_x;

Thanks for the C&C though. :)

marcello (edited Jan 30, 2004)

you should be shot for changing the mouse cursor over links. everyone who does that without good reason should be.
p.s.: the front page image background isn't white, it's kinda pinkish and doesn't match the background.

its ok. just work on your perspective a little. oh and it would look alot better with color. nice job though!

marcello (Feb 5, 2004)

rikku: You should probably avoid critiquing until your own pieces improve...
I disagree with you on all points here, adding color probably would detract from the piece. As for perspective, that's hard to say, the picture is not really in focus so it is hard to say what is in perspective.
The nose could probably use some work, it somewhat resembles a very flat alien face similar to jabba the hutt's. Perhaps more definition on the upper part of the nose, and less on the nostrils would help.

Erm...tried to add more contrast. D: Oh, and thanks for the comments. :)

Axil62 (edited Jan 31, 2004)

You did a great job lucy. Darker darks, careful where you place them (the eye follows them through the pic so try to get the eye to move from upper left down through the pic with them) and distinguish the background by pushing it back a little (things in the distance get less detailed and grayer, in this case probably a tad darker and less focused) The only other thing is the symmetrical face. Faces are not <i>really</i> symmetrical. If you look at a photo of most anyone straight on you can cover half the face with your hand or a piece of paper or whatever, take a good look, then cover take your hand or the piece of paper and move it to the other side of the face and take a good look at the other half of the face. You'll find that the eyes are not identical and the other features are a little different from one half of the face to the other. Of course you might be doing the symmetrical thing on this panting on purpose for an effect, I don't know for sure, I'm not there. Good job.

lucy_430 (Jan 31, 2004)

Hmm...I see. Thanks, I'll be sure to keep all that in mind for furture drawings. :)

Ya know what? This is cool! Reminds me of a painting...it looks more like a man hiding under a Bison's skin/fur...you know a Wolf in Sheep's clothing? Damned cool though!
