Hey..now that's an idea! Thanks Dave! You sure are "Johnny on the Spot" when it comes to commenting. Cool! Her nose look weird to me. But Oh well..I am just playing anywho!
Definately Betty. The nose still seems a little off, as well as her right eye, and I think pure black as a shadow is too harsh for the face, but you can definately tell it's Betty.
Sweetcell, thanks for the comments on the drawing. I thought the black was a little harsh also..but I was copying a ref. pic. I don't know what to do with her nose, it is shaped weird in the ref. pic too, but I may fool with it a little later or go find some other pics of Betty to use for the ref. on her nose. I haven't been here in a long time and I am kind of out of practice with the applet. But I plan to get lots of practice here very soon. Thanks again!
No prob KD, if you need to someone a while back did a Betty Page picture. It's on the showcase page (no pun intended ;D) I think maybe it just needs to be rounder. Do you have a link to the ref?
if i may make a suggestion, i'd say learn what you can from this one and just start a new piece, sometimes you can get stuck on trying to fix something when its easier to start over. Betty has a few key characteristics that make her look the way she does, the shape of her eyes and her thin upper lip, if you want good illustrated reference of her, i'd suggest looking at some of OLIVIA's work, she has done a large volume of pinups of her, and if you want something a little simpler you can check out Dave Stevens.
Thanks Sweetcell, I will check it out. I don't have the link, I have it saved on my computer. ranger, also please make as many suggestions as you would like...I am here to get better at my art. I will check out the artists and Thank you both very much for the help.
