I'm thinking, Little red riding hood just got nasty and a sword!
Very nice line flow. I love her pose and the red and black composition.
It's a very attractive piece of art.

This is great! Any chance of a tutorial, specifically on the background, I love the depth and use of splatter effects.

nice colors - you can bring the char a little bit more in front - the red in red is difficult for the eyes

Before I saw the name I thought for sure it was an amped-up version of Red Riding Hood. Hmm, I think I just came up with a great idea.
Excellent work, from this angle the feet have an odd look to them but no biggie.

love the colour choices! background looks really organic.. almost feels like real watercolour blotches and splashes

I love splatter, as anyone whose seen my traditional work would know. But I haven't yet been able to recreate decent splatters in digital... which prompst me to ask... are your splatters digital???

Hey Velinov
First of all, your work encourages me to start working with a grafik tablet.
I like your techniques and the fact that you don`t notice that the piece was made with ps at first glance.
I like the way you make this girl move so dynamically.
I donīt like the sword and the jackboots.
The sword looks very boring and simple, I also can`t figure out the End of the foot - where does the leg end and the foot start. And this cuttling of the leather at the top of the jackboot takes away the cool overall effect of your sharp and bowing lines.
The cape reminds me of the comic spawn.
Concluding, really impressive, I hope to craft something like this someday...;)

Awesome work. I love the colors in this piece, the way you put them together is a piece itself. Congrats on the plug!

i know, im no expert, but imho this picture lacks something... maybe green. I dont doubt your skills, but for me this picture is quiet boring and doesnt have no message - please excuse my straightforwardness.
Im open for other opinions!

You possess (and your work, here depicted, does too) the rare quality that is to transmit what I like to call "Still Wind". The picture is "moving", yet still. Focus on it long enough and you'll hear the wind blowing under the Red Moon :)

I really like her alot! Beautiful features on the girl...My only critique has to do with the sword...Great detail on everything else, but the sword is very plain...Not only that but the perspective seems iffy to me...Its curved like you were looking at the side of the blade somehow, yet the tip doesnt reflect that accurately...I would just rework a more detailed sword in there and the image would indeed be perfect...

this got a style that is half way between Liquid! and Cliffhanger comics (remember Battlechaser?). Very very great coloring.
Excellent
very nice style, I like a lot!

MasterLitz
10-26-2004, 03:52 AM
I think it's a very beautiful picture. The only real complaint I have concerning it is the width of the katana (I am assuming she is wielding a katana). To me, it looks a bit thin, and reminds me more of a foil than a katana. Otherwise, very stunning work.

Hello, Congratulations for your visual, the bottom is very successful

10-26-2004, 08:23 PM
I like it alot, I like the colour scheme and the way it works with the background. The background is abstract and yet she seems well placed within it. I also think the way all the different surfaces have different kinds of highlighting is great, the sheen on the leather is especially good.
One thing that I did notice is that her sword is curved sideways, but the handle isn't. Im not sure if thats the way those swords might swing or not, but its not really an issue with the look of the image.
I love the spattered ink look of the background, did you do this and then scan it or did you paint it straight into photoshop?

There realy are a lot of potentialy magnificent Bulgarian artists and being half Bulgarian im only proud too see your work on a site as creditable and staggering as CG Talk [ AND ON THE FRONT PAGE ] ....you inspire me..:applause:
Keep it up.
Take care.
Effi Lang.
Good, but as others have said the sword needs to be reworked, the length of the sword looks awkwardly out of line with the hilt.

you've mastered the textures really well eg highlights on the boots, the softness of the cloak, the brightness of the sword. I like the contrast between the preciseness of the figure and the background/environment :)

10-28-2004, 07:14 PM
Great Piece of work.
A small observation if I may. There is something a little strange about the face and I think it is the eye. If it was moved down a bit and a touch closer to the nose I think it would solve this slight drawing problem.
keep the pencils sharp.

The colours employed here are beautiful. On a slightly critical note, and this has nothing to do with how you've glossed this image, as I think the control is exceptional... The young ladies feet seem a bit lost on my screen. I don't know if its a problem with my dieplay, but I can't tell how well they've been executed.
Its nice to see work like this being produced as there's a wealth of commercial use for this stuff right now.

I still love this piece of work and think that the only thing to match its impact was reading; Who is Svetlin Velinov? (End pg. of feature article)
As dramatic as the work and then some, cheers for the tips Svetlin... Great stuff.

Hi to all of you
It's an honor to heare such a nice words about what you had done. Thank you very much.
I'll tell once again that for the scetch ot the "Red moon" I have used a graphic tablet. I didn't use any scetch on paper and draw it directly into yhe PS.
Viva Bulgarian Artists!
