First and foremost. Credit. I did not draw this. The original line art is by Hiroshi Kaieda. It was taken from a Japanese art book entitled Comickers which can be found here [link]
Now onto the pic itself. It's no secret that I think my coloring sucks as I do everything through trial and error. This was done in an attempt to develop a system I could use for all future pics. Unfortunately I don't think I succeeded in that aspect. As far as the pic itself goes I do like the final outcome for the most part. The lighting primarily and I finally managed a background I think is decent. I used two photos of the sky I had taken awhile back and edited them for desired color and contrast along with some hands free details.

 bloodysmurfTotal Posts: 184Mar 29, 2007 3:35 pmI dont know what youre talking about! Youre coloring is pretty darn sweet! Specially her tummy and legs. I do think you coulda added a bit more highlight (like it is on the leg) to her chest and cheeks maybe. But thats probably just my preference. But yeah..Your coloring is awesome ^-^ --- I

 Armoun (Reply)Total Posts: 33Mar 29, 2007 6:43 pmLol im glad you like it. Honestly the end result may be nice but getting there is a very large headache for me and the end result isn't what i really imagined. Still i agree with you about the highlights. I just couldnt seem to land a good lighting setup for her face without fear of ruining the anime look of it. Thanks for the feedback --- |

It's very eye catching. Hmm... maybe a few darker ares would help it stand out a bit more though. But It's cool ![[emoticon]](http://www.paperdemon.com/images/forum/mysmilies/favorite.gif)

Armoun (Reply)Total Posts: 33Mar 30, 2007 5:10 pmYeah i agree. I think balancing out my colors with more darker areas as well as more highlighting would go a long way in adding depth. --- |

 War SquirrelTotal Posts: 298Apr 10, 2007 5:26 pmI think this is pimp-diggity. The detailing is beautiful all the way down to the tiny texturing on the coat... This is excellent, and the reddish sunsety sky is awe inspiring. --- The greatest story ever written. FORMERLY HALO MODDER (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)
