Here's a sketch of my idea. More or less the Agent is caught and being lowered into a pool full of man eating sharks.

[walrus]

Well, she'll be safe then: She doesn't look at all like a man.

But seriously: Nice, simple, effective composition. The overall mood might be a little too "pool party": Have you considered setting the scene at night?
good luck! :thumbsup:

I'm pretty certain I want to do a sun lit shot. I'm going for that cliche super villain on a Island feel. I'm thinking of adding a rocket lifting off in the background to add more cliche'e'ness. lol. Yeah I'm doing a female secret agent, but the super villain is might be wearing a grey suit and have a white cat.

I finally got the tones and color going in the right direction, now I'm working on painting in all the details on the Secret Agent. If your wondering about her head, there's going to be a wig that falling off her head.

[xeni]

Liking your idea dude its cool, wonder how shes gonna get out of that 1 lol

[jmans]

nice idea man I wanna see the final! :D
Sucess!

[budji]

I think it could be important to see her feet. Nice colouring.

[Splinter]

I really like the concept. I can't believe I never thought of anything like this when going through all the ideas in my head. This brings back a lot of memories of a lot of really good. movies. REALLY cool!!!

Like Budji I think that it might be important to show the feet. Then again I think the compositional layout of the characters that you have in there now could work out just fine. With the amount of detail that you put into the villains you might not want to zoom out too far.

Keep up the good work I can't wait to see how this piece turns out.

[deftsword]

Good concept tAstYBITs

We really get the feeling of the struggling she is going throughout.

To emphases what others had said, I’m always disappointed when the artist is hiding both the hands and the feet in a scene like this.

Keep it up.

[Rivenis]

this is a really great concept, i can't wait to see how it turns out

[Pooria-AZ]

nice idea but i think it's better if you take a look at her proportion and anatomy . i think the chest shouldn't be that close to the neck area and with the angle of her hands i wonder how they bight them !

anyway the whole image is really good as a WIP .looking forward to your next steps :thumbsup:

[Ferx]

Hey Darran,

Cool idea!! Like a lot your original and great approach to the concept. Maybe a bit more dramatic atmosphere for the image (more a wish than a critic :D) Really great work and waiting for more updates!! Cheers!! :beer:

A lot of the background work is nearly done.

[FalyneVarger]

Something seems off with her legs to me. Maybe you should flip the image (vertically) to get a better understanding of her anatomy.
Also, is there something in her teeth?
Everything else looks great! Looking forward to more.

[miycko]

very nice cnoncept, great painting too :D

[L8n]

I think her anatomy looks fine. Don't see a real problem with her legs, or with the fact her head is close to her chest. Obviously shes arching her neck upward (downwards?) to escape (apparently through untying her bikini top with her teeth?) while gravity is carrying her ample chest in the opposite direction. I can see how you wouldn't see her hands, but I suppose there may be an argument for working these in somehow (if only to reassure us the sharks haven't had a nibble already). Maybe if she had long hair this could be just skimming the water, almost beckoning the shark. Just an idea, and possibly a bad one.

Great background ideas too. Hope you get to work a rocket or death ray in there as well.

[rePLAY]

Well done so far- it has a great potential. I want to see it finished.
L8n is right about her hands. Probably you have to change a bit the angle.
Also it's a bit puzzling why she is trying to untie her bikini top?

The background is about done. I still want to add some stuff like more plants and a rocket in the sky.

THE GIRL IN THE FOREGROUND IS TEMPORARY!!! and I plan on completely re-doing her.

[SteevieWoo]

Hi Darrant nice work! the water looks great! did you use a photoshop displace filter for the rippled tiles and sharks or is it hand work? just curious...
Mmmm she's definetly having a surprise under her top ... oh I see !! I was going to ask you but I get it now, she will scape the trap and in the process become topples! neat! I like that, I can only wait for you to keep us posted on the body detail, going good!
