agreed, looks like a watercolor. What I really love about this piece is that it really makes you want to stop and take in all the details and interesting shapes/colors, rather than a piece you open, take in the draw all at once and then move on after a few seconds... This is great, patience!

I thought I recognized the artist for this one. Why are you not using Chibi?? Just kidding, this is great and reminds me we should have passed these out at work! Oh well, next year perhaps. Looking forward to a better year in 2010 than this past year :(

mursku (Feb 7, 2010)

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!

Teapot (edited Feb 8, 2010)

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.

Suntan (edited Feb 8, 2010)

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.

shell (Apr 2, 2010)

oo shiny. great stuff

thanks so much everyone! :)
and mursku, after you pointed it out, I can see how that sudden contrast from blurred to sharp doesn't look right .. I'll have to deviate from the reference a bit and try to fix that.. thanks for the tips .. much appreciated :) now let's hope I can pull it off without guidance from the ref and make it look better.
flubbles, you're just hardcore :P but I'm glad to know you were only trying to "encourage me" next time maybe give me some tips where I went wrong, like mursku did :)

drawn in 2 hours 1 min

hope this looks a little better.. I played around with the background too much and messed that up worse than it was :|

LifeGotColour (Feb 13, 2010)

awesome! ... it looks just great!
