Title: Bang Bang
Name: Stephanie Brown
Country: USA
Software: Photoshop

This piece was a pain to get a reference for. I must have done that jump 20 times before I got a satisfactory look. And then I had to pick two frames from the video I took and blend them together to get the pose I really wanted. But it was worth it because this turned out pretty well, methinks.

This is for the same story as "I Think We Have a Problem", featuring the same female character (but obviously in different clothing).

Painted entirely in Photoshop, using my own references.

Stephanie,

Nice image. You did a wonderful job on the texturing, especially in the background area. Good composition also. The only crit I have pertains to her left arm. It looks a little too "dead" in posture (kind of limp) and I think it needs a little more shadow on it. By "dead" I mean that I think it should be more tensed in anticipation of a break fall with the hand pulled back to have the palm leading the way to impact point. I hope this helps.

Regards,

TMArtist has a point about her arm, everything else is really nice though. I can imagine how tough that must have been getting reference!
