Default In her element



She's soaking wet, so I gave her a coat.

I rarely get enough time to actually finish a painting, this one took forever.

I guess her forehead looks like veins are popping out. It's actually her hair, shrinking images down made it look that way.

__________^ my favorite part of the picture

Pretty awesome.

I can't see what she's doing with her right arm, and I don't like much the serious face, but otherwise nice job .

If only Ascalon/Apprentice's armour actually looked that good.

Wonderful work, I really hope you find the time to do more.

Diablo, any time you feel like doing a tutorial, know that you'll have at least one reader.

Ok I have to say I am truly blown away by what you have done in this piece..

I love the realism especially in the facial features that you bring to the character, I feel like she's telling an intense story of what got her to this point, and would be just as amazing as a portrait shot and nothing else.

But as a whole the paintings emotion is intensified bringing it to a whole new level, the environment meshes so perfectly with the overall feel, and the amazing detail makes me feel like I'm right there with her, down to the mist on my brow

This is definitely a work of art I'd frame in my house several times over

Ya I realized the right arm is kinda funky, it's parallel to the dress that's hanging off her boob so its too camouflaged. If I had time I would've definitely changed it. but thanks for the feedback guys!

And ya, she's really angry. grrrrr

For me, only if they've found a way to add that coat.
