Description ..or not?

******************
Stocks: ~9mm-stock and [link]

The image has been completely airbrushed. My main inspirations were =Staldren and (don't ask me why, it's how my mind works) the painting Dama con ermellino by Leonardo. It took me two days to finish that, maybe because I'm slow but also because I wanted to make sure the result was a good one...I'm using an amazing stock by which I've always felt pretty intimidated, mainly thinking I would've just ruined it so... I really hope this time it was worth it. I won't deny that sometimes I felt the need to put down my wacom tablet and just go out, nervous as I was, but to be honest I've had a lot of fun in working on this piece, I hope it shows and that you'll like it.

Thank you in advance.

no no no !
suzi is an interesting person but such worship takes the mind away from what the message of art is
anonimousity of ancient artists was there for a reason !

the background is nice work though and I like it
don;t you think her eyes should have an eerie red glow ? she'd like that I think

Haha yes, maybe, but the red glow wouldn't fit the rest of the photomanip.

They don't have to be, I don't like them when they're too "blended"

Thanks!

Wow, it is great to know that I've been an inspiration But even when you use tutorials or references you are developing your own style and that's very good, the guides are just guides, the talent is yours and this work is beautiful, it has an aged and misterious touch, very well executed. Congratulations

Of course you've been! I've been watching you since when I first joined, you were always my myth.
I often use your tutorials, I don't think people should necessarily copy everything you say in there, they can also be useful if you're doing something else, all they need is some patience and imagination and of course creativity.
AW thank you so much, you have no idea how insecure I am about my works..

Are you kidding me?
This is seriously well done! It's great really.. when you said you were insecure I never thought it would be a master piece..
Oh my lovely.. you have nothing to be worried about, i'm sure she will love it. You did a wonderful job with the airbrushing and with the background. The textures are very well applied and the whole concept is great!

You worry too much, but you know what? That's good
It helps you grow even more!

Lol no I'm not kidding, I'm seriously nervous about this XD I never wanted to use her stock because her images were great enough, they didn't need anyone to work on them, even if they were just stock. The fact that they've been used from amazing artists before me also made me quite nervous, I was like.. what could I ever add to this?

I'm so glad you like it, you know how important your opinion is for me!!!

*keeps fingers crossed*
Ahem. Maybe it's also because no one ever aknowledges my works that I feel always so insecure? Whenever I have to post here I feel as if I'm going to do an exam of some kind

I'm insane. I know it.
