I rated it but I did not comment. Thank GOD this has gone on the front page when I saw I was so captivated in a very romantic way. You can almost see the love being passed eye to eye. The carefulness both have with each other. This is truthful majestic view of love in every sense. Great piece! The flow of the work is amazing. Really this is a modern master piece.


The stars are not enough for this peice.

So much emotion, youve really outdone yourself this time! Definitely looking forward to seeing the other sections of your site fill up!!

5 stars fo shizzle nizzle!

[serjj]

отличная работа! малаца :)

[funkyfoe]

This is really stunning, love the way he holds her in his arms, relly gentle and
romantic.amazing work! hopefully we`ll see alot more from you in the future.

why is it there`s always a warning when there`s some nudity involved
but when there`s a zombie tearing someones head of there`s nothing,
guess this is an american thing like like the janet jacksons boob episode :)

anyways

great piece of work!!!

[Levente]

Very nice, atmospheric and personal . The contrast is abit too strong or maybe its my screen ;p

[b-lame]

ah! brillliant lighting! it looks like their're lying there on a late autumn evening, when it's neither cold nor hot outside. her foot has a little to much contrast on it, imho, but hey, i'm talkin student to master here. ;)

[shoey]

Very nice work. The mood and lighting are great. :thumbsup:

One thing that does bother me though, is the man's hand on her leg. The thumb and angle of his fingers just doesn't seem to sit right.

Other than that though, excellent work.

Cheers. Phil

[Toniko]

Amazing work, Olga! Two very big thumbs up! I rate this 10 out of 5 (meh)
Woah, i love the lighting like the man's side is darker and the woman's side is brighter (Now what could that mean). Nice colors, and the couple look nice :) I love the smooth skin of theirs. Very, VERY, very great work.

[akewt]

a beautifull painting and a beautifull sentiment. its my new desktop.

[loocas]

Awesome painting man :buttrock: The light and shading there is just briliant! http://forums.cgsociety.org/images/rating/rating_5.gif from me :applause:

[Zephyri]

This is absolutely beautiful, possibly one of the best images Ive ever seen on CGtalk, it really does touch me on a very personal level. Both characters are very appealing visually and emotionally, and you've really managed to pin tenderness without being overly soppy or cliched. Absolutely gorgeous.

[Squibbit]

very nice pic


i like the lighting



.

[phoenix]

veyr nice and smooth

[danimani]

It's really nice
And I don't think that it's so important, where the giril's fixed here eyes.
Probably she is looking and dreaming. Ohh sweet love.:love:

[bahman]

Wow :eek: , Frist picture in my life that I spend 5 stars for it,
Amazing & romantic,
With frist look I have gone crazy.:thumbsup:

[felixxx]

Primi escho raz moi pozdravleniya!!! Neosporimyi uspeh!!!

[fonzy_toulouse]

What an amazing pix.
We can really see the feelings of the characters!
Very realistic.
Congatulations...
Now I just have to go back to my Intuos2 and cry.

[cgnetworks_le]

Holy mother of gods!

I like it. Maybe a bit too bright on the right, matte

Still! Shit! that s good

[Chris Bacon]

nice....very nice....

[RandalGreen]

Wow, thats a really nice picture, I love it, I actually wanted to draw something similar to it. You've definitely captured a kodak moment. Very nice lighting and color to set the mood of the drawing. Really good stuff.

[xric7]

very impressive!!:cry: ..

[Chiny]

:) 5 stars...
I really love this piece... it really represents the title you gave it :)
:buttrock:

[Miyagu]

simply beautiful!
....

:thumbsup:

[perhaps]

very pretty, as others have said.

i do have a few crits:

- the man's shoulders, arms, forearms, and hands (particularily his right one) look way too big and heavy for the rest of his body. i would definately thin them out more, as right now it sort of skews the gracefulness of the mans head and upper body.

- the girl's calves, ankles, and her right foot are too fat. they're nearly as thick as her thighs. her right foot is almost manly looking.

i think if you toned up these areas it would be a flawless piece.

[Avong]

its an awsome pieace but one thing that bugs me though

the girl's eyes i mean he's staring at her eyes yet she's staring somewhere else her eyes are just lifeless and emotionless, you might want make her eyes meet his just my opinion

[Theman2k]

AMAZING...

100 STARS

really makes me want to join their party :)

[sindustries]

Wow, lovely
light is so sweet ^^

[1541]

The expressions are good, but i also wanna join the guy who said the hands are too large. When i first saw them i was thinking of Michelangelo's David. Also the hand around the girls neck looks kinda stiff and dead.

However i really like the Orle Preslavnyj stuff on your site, that is just amazing.

[vfxworks]

just could not survived without commenting " MARVELOUS WORK" !

keep going

[thebrianproject]

Wow! It's really cool seeing something done so well and it isn't aliens or goblins. Not that there is anything wrong with aliens and goblins. This is just a refreshing painting. 5 Stars!

[R3desiGN]

Simply stunning...

[Tigrenka]

What an amazing pix.
We can really see the feelings of the characters!
Very realistic.
Congatulations...
Now I just have to go back to my Intuos2 and cry.
Don't cry!!! I have the Intuos2 too, but I'm happy

[Michiel t.B.]

*****.
Tigrenka, I envy your absolutely brilliant skill.
It kinda shows me the perfect light at the end of a tunnel of crap. Although I'm not good at drawing\painting\whatever, you inspire me to take the voyage through that tunnel until all crap is gone, and I have reached that light. Thanks for bringing us such a masterpiece.

[GeoffreyGodet]

Waooooo very impressive.:buttrock:

[Reality3D]

Fantastic image Olga. It really evokes a lot of good feelings

[Crunktastic]

Must add in my ... Outstanding!!

[abielmuren]

Good Painting, so sweet; nice expression of love!:)

[Numse]

Awesome. Much inspiration for me and others.

[ScottJohnson]

Technical abilities aside, the emotion in this painting is the strongest i've seen in a long time. You should be very proud of this painting. :)

[Spc]

Awesome masterpiece.
:bowdown:

[jereus]

The lighting is tops. Great work!

[rawgon]

DAMM! what brilliant painting... you got it all. congrats

[republika]

Beautiful work.

The lighting is excellent and the colors are too..... 5 stars :applause:

[ffourier]

wow just perfect. So nice lightning, so nice realization, so nice body... simply amazing. One of the best i have ever seen. Congratulation

[sarNz]

damn, i wanted to create an idea very similar to this, but im glad that you made the picture. It's awesome, 5 stars from me too ;)

[chikos]

One of the best and most sincere images that I have seen! All the stars for you!!

[Crewler]

My god, thats hard impressive! Love your style and using of colors, just amazing! too cool to be real, frontpagestuff! :thumbsup:

crewler

[lepetit]

great work but i have some remarks : the womens face looks a little artificial , like a plastic face , the hand under the leg is a little disproportionate , but i really love this piece , the lights are warm and i can feel tenderness.Maybe a little contrast between the men and the women could be welcome (the men more "sharped" ,more venous).

[SegFaultII]

a true piece of art, very rare these days.
we all know love but we all feel it different. this piece transports the feeling of love to the viewer, what makes it a great work.

impressive!

[depleteD]

That is really amazing man.
The emotion in your painting is soooo strong

[RockinAkin]

Simply amazing... very evocative.

[DarkLimit]

This scene is breathtaking...... Good Lord..........

thanks for sharing...........

[peachysticks]

The mood you created here is absolutely beautiful, their facial expressions do convey tenderness. And I don't think I've seen figure-oriented paintings from you before! Speaking of the figures, the one thing I find lacks a little in this piece is the stiffness of them... looks slightly Poser-ish, not quite natural, ot soft, enough. That's the only thing that kinda distracts me about this.

[dees]

bah................ straight 5 stars

:beer:

dees

[tel]

dudeeee we can feel life on this! thank you! is awsome! 5 by me

[SOE digital]

I'm in love. No seriously, I love this piece of art. For the first time in a while a single image has truely struck an emotional chord within me...and for it to be from someone here and not from a world famous artist, well that just perfectly reflects the skills of you and everyone here.
I've had similar momments like this (referring to the mood of the painting) with my partner, minus the beautifull light, and this image brought all those emotions and feelings flooding back.
You could do no more mate...best piece of art I've seen from the CG network. Period.
:)

[DragonKore]

Amazing work, my friend.

[ianex6]

i dont know what i can say. that is an amazing painting .:bounce: sooo~~ realistic!!

[Peteleebe]

wonderful....oh my god:eek:

[admiraligor]

everything about this painting is beautiful. Only one thing catches my eye... and ironicly, it's their eyes :) The man's eyes are okay, but to women's seem to be straying off, not with a direct contact with the man's. They seem to be looking slightly below his eyes, maybe his nose or chin.

But other than that, this is a superb work. I'll give it 5 stars :)

[inbata]

A-m-a-z-i-n-g!!!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[zombiehellmonkey]

So soft and ethereal, a sensual treat for the eyes... great work, well done!!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Maybe she is avoiding eye contact which makes it more romantic [romance?? I don't know what it is]. What I noticed though is the gal's calves seem to be too big for her.

[Glax]

This is amazing work.
Simply great.

[turtle-rn]

the woman's hair is not up tu the standart of the rest of the pic, especially the man's face which is amazing. overall, a great piece of work! :thumbsup:

The attention to detail in all the joints is amazing. I especially love the line that the light follows along her torso. Very solid.:applause:
