Beautiful work. Her eyes sparkle with love of life!
beautiful portrait..and does rival a poser image..but beter in quality as it comes from within the heart..I abor tracing..if it isnt ones own work..the faces look cold and hard like dog women..I can tell this is not traced..the expression is full of joy and radiance..not frozen..a fine and beautiful work of art..
one of the truly beutiful women in the world today. and you caught her heart and revealed it in paint. an excellent work.
Ah yes Shadow - another great portraiture. The eyes in this one are super realistic, and the shading is exemplary. What I have always admired about your work is your ability to start from a blank 3D canvas, and using only a few photos beside you, turn out a painting that rivals a Poser image. I likely don't recognize this young lady either should she be a movie or TV star..but you have done an excellent job on painting her. Bravo my friend!
Excellent work Shadow! It looks just like her. I love that show! I wish I could figure out how you do this. I do well with pencil, but can't seem to get the knack of using my tablet to do color portraits. Amazing color, shadowing and detail.
The image seems a little flat, I think its the hair (at the bottom) and parts of the face. I don't want to be too critical of t his image, because its far better than anything I could come up with in freehand. The color and strokes are wonderful, and the mouth is dead on perfect. YOu have loads of talent.
Yes indeed, the mouth is wonderfully drawn. It's so difficult to draw a laughing mouth and let it look natural. You managed to do it! You also manage to make such wonderful realistic skincolours. You know you could make a career of it?
Thanks Ryyme. I made some modifications that I hope will fix some of the flatness...
Those eyes!!!!!!!!! Stunning!! You are doing amazing things Master Shadow!!
Great eyes and face!
Wonderful as always, the shadows and lights are great and I have to agree with the others....stunning eyes, great work!
Very nicely done. Your talent keeps growing. Keep on.
Her facial expression is beautiful... so innocent and full of love!! - - Magically portrait :-)
Beautiful picture. Hair and eyes are excellent. I like your images.
Oh this is wonderful. The best of the Scooby Gang by far! SOoooo impressed :)
wow !!! amazing work as ever ! wonderful scene and wonderful colors and textures !!! Congratulations !!!
Amazing work again Shadowind. I like her smile a lot.
WOW!! Fantastic as always Shadow. Gads but I LOVE the eyes on your paintings. They have such depths to them!!!!!! Sigh! I bow humbly to a great master!!!!!!
Great quality !!! Cool Smile !!!
Holistic! Evangelical! <<The widow's peak hits me immediately. The work done in Poser with transparency maps to give hair follicles and strands to that area is noted. Then I realize what it is the forehead is not tall enough. The whole "wig" should tilt up and back. Now this based on someone who knew just how much uplift to give to the hair to avoid the "surfer look" or ironed hair.>> Blink!! out of the 60's and back to 2002. A really endearing and complete image.
Great rendering. fantastic control over your media. The eyes have a great sparkle quality to them. Thank you for sharing your talent.
SHOW OFF! Just kidding. As I can see you are constantly improving your work. Glad we aren't in competition or I would have to call cousin Vinnie and.... heh
awesome!! the eyes and smile are SO like her!! i couldn't do anything this good in poser,never mind from scratch,another great job!!
Awesome work my friend!
