Description FULLVIEW FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

I hate the fact that this looks like anime. D:

But on a lighter note:

Gosh, this was fun. Now I understand why so many people work digitally. There's a number of errs; point them out if you notice anything.


Now I need to finish an oil painting....so many art firsts today!

This reminds me so much of summer nights, or summer seeping into autumn nights. Its almost as if I can smell night-time. Very entrancing piece.

I followed your thread from the art scene, and to be blunt, I don't see anime in this at all. Maybe you do because of the use of line? Technically when I see your work I think much of it is more influenced by Mucha (who I see is one of your favorite artists) than anime. Older work you've done has more of the anime look, newer stuff? Less so if none at all. I think your studies are great! And I loved the sketch about the art supplies on sale, the line strokes are very clean with a nice push and pull from the line weights.

For this piece, one thing that struck me was that line weight variation was gone. Not sure if that was intentional but I think the boarder and the stars are over dominating the figure due to their boldness. One little niggling thing in regards to the anatomy, the sternocleidomastoid muscle in the neck is too rounded and too prominent given the relaxed pose of the head. The line is pretty much making it harsher so instead, try using only value to define the forms in the clavicle and neck area.

Oh wow, thank you so much for the input; I really appreciate it.

I wasn't really thinking of line variation too much (gah, my bad), probably because I was too enamored with getting the anatomy and folds right. But now I see how important it is; I'll keep that in mind if I do more things along these lines.

I'll definitely go back and fix that...muscle...(haha, the fact the name alone was used leaves me stunned).

Gosh, thanks so much!
