Okay...where do I start?
There was obviously a lot of effort here. The stock used was extremely effective. How the heck did you get a family photo of a girl screaming like this?
No matter. Very nicely done with the fur--both the fur on the face and the hair--that seems to be making a transition into coarser, wolflike fur as well.
The secondary incisors outward are very nice--tapered perfectly, curled just right. The primary incisors don't seem quite right to me, they seem too needle-like. However, in a pic this fantastic, it's an almost invisible issue.
The color choice, sepia tones and black, is quite effective. The total blackness of the background is well-chosen; the viewer imagines her where they imagine her. Personally, I imagine her in a dark forest, but one can just as easily see her in a warehouse, alley, hospital--etc, etc. Her pain and obvious fear are moving--we aren't sure whether to fear her or comfort her. Either way, it's a fantastic picture.
There are those who'd say it's a clichΓ©d, trite scene and image, but I say the fact that you were able to make this sort of an image out of a tired theme only makes the picture better. Yes, it's not entirely original--so what? It's still very well done.
I find very, very little wrong with it and almost everything right. Well done, Seriani, I applaud your masterpiece.
