Underneath It All!, Maurizio Manzieri (2D)

[loenie]

When I opend the butterfly, I didn't expect to see this beautiful lady. The Making-of is great.
Also the metalcostume design is super. But eh... it would remind me more of metal if is had more/sharper reflections.

[Manzieri]

Peraiia: Yeah! Thanks! I was looking for a softer effect... silver, maybe?

Next time I promise to be sharper... I keep enjoying a lot creating metallic garments...:rolleyes:

[loenie]

Ow DOH! of course silver, forgotten about that, and also is silver easier to move;) (since it is a suite). But still, lovely picture.

[Manzieri]

Peraiia: Thanks again! I was thinking that perhaps I should have posted a less mysterious thumbnail for this illustration...:banghead: ...hmmm...

[Thaldir]

Ciao, Maurizio.
You have quite a good-looking lady here. :) It's not too late to change thumbnail if you want.

You have to do it from your 'manage gallery' page: select 'edit details' for the image and upload the new thumbnail, it will appear over here too.

Holy cow! I also didn't expect to see a beautiful lady after clicking on that butterfly thumbnail... it was a nice surprise! I vote not to change the thumbnail to give all curious members a certain surprise. :buttrock:

The silver costume is to die for! I want one of them! Where can I order one? ;) Really, I would love to have one. Haha! Artwise, awesome anatomy! I only can hope I could get to that point someday! For now, I'll admire you for your hard work in it. Great work! I definitely enjoyed getting lost in this one!

[Manzieri]

Thaldir: thanks for the useful info, pal...! I believed the initial choice was freezed forever!:bowdown:

DreamMaster: first of all...let me thank you for your kind words. I put a lot of work in this one... and while I was painting I thought: "Why do not launch a fashion house for robots?". I've been thinking a lot of scenes, even livelier, in a Universe where flesh boundaries are feeble and I can unleash my fantasy drawing dresses for cyber-models... brass, silver,steel...
it could be material for an artbook! :drool:

Edit: for anyone coming down with her/his eyes along this gallery, do not worry! Your memory isn't failing you and you didn't miss my girl! The first thumbnail for this illustration was a mysterious butterfly... too much traffic on the CG highway, so I've decided to unveil the real thing...

Hello Manzieri. A real good work, the girl's anatomy is fine and the global composition too.
Only one critique: I miss more shadows and lights contrast on the background. It looks too "plane" needs more depth.
Anyway a good work!:thumbsup:

[Manzieri]

CMERINO: Thanks a lot for your comments. I understand what you mean... After reading your words I kept looking at my illustration and indeed twilight could have been darker, couldn't it?

As a second chance, what if she had been posing in a photo studio? ...the legs sunk in the water/oil below of this surreal Robot Studio and a painted cardboard all around her. At this point, her shadow could have been painted on the illusory background...

...drops of ideas from my frenzy mind...:arteest:

[ShogunWarrior]

good work great details and anatomy, good shading and creativity... 5 stars

[Manzieri]

ShogunWarrior: Thanks! Your words will keep me focused on the next one!...:love:
