Well.....I'm totally fed up with working on this draw.....I spent wayyyy too much time on this.....just messing around with the floor tiles, trying to get them looking ok. Thank you "MissDj" for pointing out that the floor tiles didn't look right with the texture lines going thru them....I tried fixing that, and I agree with you.....it looks better without the textures. I still need to do some more work on this draw, but I'm posting this as "finished", because I'm sick of working on it...."LOL"!! I may "tinker" around with it some more later on. I used a "ref" pic, and I thought this would be a "fun" draw to do.....well I was wrong....it was a "nightmare" to do!!! I hope I never do a "checkerboard" floor again....."LOL"!!! :)

Ambitious.. pretty cool FC..

Thanks "DaVinci".....I'm glad you like the pic. It definitely was a real "pain in the butt" to draw, but I think it looks pretty good.....I still might mess around with it some more.....if I can get back in the mood, or I might just leave it as is for now. Anyways, I appreciate your comment.....:)

I like it except for the 'thingy' keeping her shawl together and the texture on the floor. Floors like that were very smoothe, so it's not as believable as it would be otherwise. Really nice job though, FC!

wow, that's amazing--I need to attempt something like this in the future.

Hi "Miss Dj".....thanks very much for commenting....I appreciate it. I tried to fix that "thingy" that holds her shawl together....I think it looks a little better now, and I did remove all the texture lines that were in the floor tiles.....that took me a long time to get the floor looking right, but I definitely agree with you.....the floor looks much better without all those texture lines.....I thank you for pointing that out. I appreciate any and all suggestions and/or criticisms.....that's the only way to learn how to do better.....thanks again for commenting! :) Hi "foxbrownie".....you must be a newbie here.....it's nice to see you, and thanks very much for commenting......:)

beautiful work firecracker, you put a lot of work into it

madscientist111 (Jun 27, 2010)

This is awesome! So lovely and stylish! Great details! WOW!!!!!!!

Hi "pawillie" and "madscientist.....thank you both very much for your nice comments....I appreciate it. I'm glad you like the pic....I think I spent too much time on it, and most of it was just wasting time trying to get that checkerboard floor looking right.... I never want to see checkerboards again!! "LOL"! I like the pic, but I'm still not satisfied with a couple of things, but I'm too tired of working on this draw to do anything more......maybe later I might work on it more, I dunno. Anyways.....thanks again for commenting....I appreciate it!! :)
