Hey, Paul: Let's fly!
Kloxboy (Apr 18, 2006)
Wow, that's tight. I like the contours and the composition thus far.

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on,
He took a face from the ancient gallery... and he walked on down the hall!

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
running over the same old ground. What have we found?
The same old fears!
Sweetcell (Apr 18, 2006)
Looking fantastic so far. I tried my own hand at painting portraits realistically and it only just passed the grade. You and DBA and the others who have mastered this have my respect..... WOW.

There's a fog upon L. A.
And my friends have lost their way.
"We'll be over soon," they said.
Now, they've lost themselves instead.

Deino (Apr 18, 2006)
Thanks Cloxboy, Opium, Hell-om, Sweetcell and HunterKiller. :)

Mama, just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead.

You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
Opium (Apr 19, 2006)
I really hope this is showcased! The only thing that keeps throwing me off is the shadow of the left sunglass...I keep thinking it's a really big wrinkle/bag under her eye

Dance
Dance like butterflies
Shadows appear
Right before my eyes
Sounds
Echo the absurd
Hard to explain
Something that I heard

-------------------------

Opium, I have the same impression. D: I'll try to correct that... Any sugestions are welcome :D

I don't hear a sound
Silent faces on the ground
the quiet screams, but I refused to listen
If there is a hell
I'm sure this is how it smells
I wish this were a dream, but no, it isn't

----------------------
Thanks for the comments :)
Opium (Apr 19, 2006)
I think maybe if you tone down the darker shadow part of the shadow from the right sunglass part, maybe thats it? and the chin is a little off? I dunno...I don't want to seem like a know all, because I'm not! you're much better then I am! I just know I like it when people help tell me what's wrong with a picture, helps me improve. still, this looks great either way :)

Dont worry Opium, I like when other artists tell me ways to make my work better :) Thanks x)
Opium (edited Apr 19, 2006)
that did it! :) Glad you understand. That revision made my eyes even more happy! hehe

ps: I don't know any of the songs. I tried to get a tune in my head but I can't! :) I could cheat and type them into google tho...

A portrait of my skeletal gain
Left selfish and hungry so feed me the pain
Escape reality with new pain
Then let the cycle start again
DoOp (Apr 19, 2006)
supah picture! *0* and i suck at guessing sogns so i wont' try! yey! :]
frootcake (Apr 19, 2006)
its a good picture, but if you look at the lens, they're quite unsymmetrical, it could be the reflections but the right one looks more ovaly compared with the left with the highlight on the bottom left of itself. the nose rest on the right bugs me too and err the hair at the top right is a bit pixelated. im sorry to say this now your finished, but if its not just me seeing these things then i think it would make it a better picture.

btw the texture on the scarf and v8 and v9 really made the face look perfect. self portrait?
Sweetcell (Apr 19, 2006)
Fantastic. It's showcase worthy for sure, she looks like the heiress who was kidnapped and brainwashed into working for their terrorist cell, what was her name?

This came out beautiful deino, for me the chin is a tad off, but it's minor.
kejoco (Apr 19, 2006)
I honestly just said "wow" out loud...good job
Deino (Apr 19, 2006)
Thanks to everyone x)

Froocake and Sweetcell, I'll try to correct the errors you have spoted :)

I keep coming back to add details, and arrange things... I most stop it xD
HeLL-O (Apr 20, 2006)
Deino there is something you might want to fix. The right side of the glasses is messed up. Look at the pic and your drawing and you will notice.
gerbear (Apr 21, 2006)
This is spectacular. Don't know how I missed it. i have not figured out how to see everything recent an easy way. I looked at the ref, you did a wonderful job!!
Renuar (Apr 22, 2006)

laurael (Apr 22, 2006)
Wow. I said that too when I first saw this. The hair, the lenses, the scarf, the lips and teeth...sheesh, it's all fantastic!
Deino (Apr 22, 2006)
Hell-O, I'll consider your suggestion, thanks! (I'm a bit busy)
