well this is my first post at cgtalk, but i have read these boards for quite some time.
this image was done in photoshop using a photo refence.
i mostly wanted to concentrate on the style of the line work.
please, any c&c would be greatly appreciated

Nice Line work.
My observations, such as they are, would be that the lips are a bit too full. The thong appears to ride up a touch (looks actually painful). The pixalated background, while an interesting concept, distracts from your clean lines.

i think the problem with the thong is that the image is actually supposed to be orientated horizontally...heh. oops.
she is laying down and thus her butt is somewhat errr...well for the lack of a better term, mushed.

i agree that the mosaic is a lil distracting...just thought it was cool..here's another version with a blur...

prolly not much better...i need to paint a background.
thx for the comments :D

I recognize the style. The artist was named Nagel. He had lots of art in Playboy during the 80's. He also did the cover of the Duran Duran album, Rio.

His work had ultra clean, beautiful lines. He could put five lines on a piece of paper with a ballpoint pen and make it look like a beautiful woman.

rofl odd...good work...seems those images have stayed in ur mind. ;)

i'm currently working on a background to take the place of the blur and will post it shortly.

Nangleator : i havent seen the artist u are talking about...the reference i used was that of a photo, not of another artist's work...but it sounds like i would probably like his stuff....gonna check it out, thx :)
