I actually liked version 3 better, but whatever. That's just me :D
Great collab, you two! And Callypso, that looks like it would be a VERY hard style to draw in. Great job!

I've always loved this illusion. You did a great job on it :D
I don't see how anyone can NOT see it... Every time I see it I see those little black dots. It amazes me how this thing works :D

davincipoppalag (Oct 22, 2005)

I guess some just can't see it. I've looked at this every way but upside down, and all I see are the white. I guess on my planet our visible spectrum varies because of the three suns and all that purple water.

SneakyWalter (Oct 23, 2005)

I have seen this before. But I can't see black dots on this one. just white ones disappearing.

darkshadow (Oct 24, 2005)

dave and akke have eyes better then the rest of us sorry you guys cant see it
and to sneaky
i cant get them to show as dark as i want them too but you are seeing what you need to you have not missed any thing
maby i will change the name to "where did the white dots go" :)

Saturation

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 21, 2005)

I took a photo of my eye and put it in a paint program, over-did the color saturation, and this is what I got. I thought it was cool looking. I promise I was not wearing blue eyeshadow.

I "deduced" that if i colored the face in the background it would be too much and would "conflict" with the color on the main subject... =D

sorry went a little crazy with the signature. i cant even read it =P. i had to hurry to get this finished cus i need to finish my others.

Deino (Oct 19, 2005)

Aerith is my favorite character of FFVII (then comes Sephiroth :D )
Great lineart, the coloring is beautiful too! I hope we can see this finished soon x)

fleeting_memory (Oct 21, 2005)

*Goes to watch FFVII AC again* weeeeee!
I like how you have this picture set up even though I was never partial to the character myself. Great bold coloring as well.

Oh, I haven't seen you around for a while! Glad to see more of your art!
I absolutely LOVE the hair on thise one... Great job!

davincipoppalag (Oct 18, 2005)

I think this is among the better drawn of such pictures we see here. It has nice lines and good shading and coloring.

DarkCloak (Oct 18, 2005)

She's got lovely pair of eyes. ;)

You should see about adding a background, it would make the pic even better than it already is! :)
