Title: Love and Madness
Name: jean-françois barthélémy
Country: France
Software:

Inspired by a fable by Jean de la Fontaine "L'amour et la folie".

Because of a dipute, Folie makes Amour blind. To punish him, the gods condemn him to be used as guide to Amour until the end of times.

Madness was made under Maya and improved with Painter, Amour and else were made entirely with Painter. i had no references except for the head. I am not satisfied with the hair and the sign which is too "cubic".

I love the surrealistic style of this piece. Very cool! I only have one question. Is the red flowing color in the corner her hair? It is a little hard to tell. I'd like to think she is bald because it makes the image even more bizarre.

Brilliant work! Absolutely love the colour, composition and weirdness. I can't wait to see more.

Very nice picture and cool message into it, very interesting...

Technically it surely could be improved as you said about the hair... i also see a little problem with the right leg, the end of the knee is a bit strange... i think you forced a bit the SSS effect at some part like the elbow, anyway its a very sweet illustration, i like it :thumbsup:

bonne chance pour le jury du concours ;)

Thanx everyone!

bradyscott> this is her hair, but I think this is the major problem of this work. It is too "flat" around her head.

siouxfire & Vinn> color and composition were the two things i worked the most. Thanks!

Larsen> Yeah in fact when I see her now, I notice some anatomic probs that I haven't seen before...

bonne chance pour le jury du concours ;)
merci!!


I forgot to tell this work was made for a contest organized by 3DVF.

Good work. I love how you painted Amour. 5 stars for her. But Folie looks too 3D compared to Amour. That and the abovementioned hair could be improved. I love it anyway.
